New York Three Republican National Committee staffers were forced to turn their t-shirts inside out at Hillary Clinton's official campaign kick-off event today on Roosevelt Island. The offending t-shirts featured a stop sign with the words "Stop Hillary."
The Republicans held general admission tickets to the event. They walked through the security zone to get into the event without a problem. But as they proceeded toward the stage, A green-shirted campaign aide trailed them.
"Read their shirts, you can't let them in," a campaign staffer said.
The Republicans were told that no protesting was allowed inside the Clinton event. It was considered a no protest zone.
"You got to go," the campaign staffer told them.
But they were allowed to stay inside the event so long as they turned their shirts inside out. Here's a photo:

The Republicans were again scolded by campaign staffers for handing out GOP swag to reporters at the event.
Separately, a larger group of GOP staffers protested outside the New York City event. Which apparently was allowed.
