Protestor Burns Ole Glory Outside GOP Debate, But Then THIS Happened According to recent reports, one or more protestors attempted to burn an American flag in Milwaukee outside of the GOP debate on Tuesday. Were sure they didnt see what happened next coming. Reports indicate that three police officers used a fire extinguisher to put out the flag, and then proceeded to pick up Ole Glory and salute her. The flag was taken to be inventoried for possible charges against the protestor, the Milwaukee Police Department shared on Facebook. Milwaukee police officers later conducted a small, dignified ceremony to properly fold the flag before placing it on inventory. Watch the video below and tell us what you think.
