Just as affable young Texan Marshall Morris is heading off to college, he tumbles into love with Mallory, a diminutive Black cheerleader. Prone to blunder innocently into predicaments he least expects, his romance threatens to crater when he befriends a crusty group of old vets bent on saving the teardown and desecration of a war memorial statues. At first, he is clueless how his narrow beliefs can negatively affect surrounding people who matter. It takes the painful loss of Mallory for him to experience an epiphany and recognize the folly of honoring false "heroes", who upheld slavery and white supremacy.
The situation is vastly different, however, when a local developer attempts to destroy the sacred memorial of local Marine war hero, Sam Jacinto, to build a shopping center in his small town of Justice. The war is on. A motley band of old codgers and teenagers, armed with paintball guns and water hoses, dig a defensive perimeter around old Sam. Marshall and the creaky combatants fight a heated night time battle against the developer's professional hit men to defend the statue. The spirit is willing, but the ragtag crew simply cannot hold off the mercenaries. The battle is lost unless Marshall Morris can somehow save the day.
