Two high school students at the Hillary Clinton rally yesterday were asked to leave, for what some say was because they wore Obama t-shirts during the rally.
Deputy Chief Paul Spring from Jacksonville Police tells us the t-shirts had nothing to do with the citation.
Police say a teacher asked an officer to step in when an argument between the two students and the teacher got heated.
Spring says, the two Northside students, 18 year old Shatonya Bailey and 17 year old Marisa Head --didn't follow instructions to leave, which is why they were removed from the rally and charged with failure to disperse.

I am the shatonya Bailey this article is referring to. This is not that full story of what happen. It was more then a teacher and i arguing. Or even the obama T-shirt I was snatched from the bleachers by a police officer after asking him what i was doing wrong. No one asked why i had the t-shirt, the t-shirt wasnt even mine, or for that matter on my body. I had it in my hands. I was stripped of my freedom from speech and it was not right. Im not a diruptive person, I just wanted to be heard and treated as a human being!!!!
to WHY: you are so right
The T-Shirt wasn't the issue, the face on the shirt was a threat...These girls wearing Obama t-shirt to a speech was sometime very small. for example, Duke player goes to a UNC game, sit on UNC side with DUKE shirts on, are they going to ask them to leave. this is a very small problem, they should've allowed them to stay,maybe they would've left wearing a Hilary t-shirt
