Florida teen faces high school suspension for wearing ‘Hillary for Prison’ t-shirt
A US high school student has been told to “change or face suspension” after wearing a Hillary for Prison 2016 t-shirt to class, in reference to the presidential nominee.
Maxine Yearkle, from Florida, posted a video of herself talking about the incident on YouTube, where she said the t-shirt had sparked conversation
in her classroom at Boca Raton High School.

“There is no rule that you’re not allowed shirts like this, the assistant principal said that, there’s nothing wrong with what I’ve done,” Ms Yearkle said to the camera.
“My problem with this is that I didn’t cause a problem.”
Her father picked her up from school early yesterday so she didn’t have to face suspension, reports WPTV.
Mr Yearkle said he is proud of his daughter for standing up for what she believes in and will be going with her when she votes for the first time on Wednesday.
