A protester who wore an "I can't breathe T-shirt" to the Tulsa Trump rally was arrested for trespassing after being asked to leave. She had a ticket to the event. Is this a political rally or a private event? Did she have a First Amendment right to peacefully protest by wearing that shirt? Tough questions.

Yes she does have a right to peacefully protest and she probably could have stayed outside without too much trouble. However, they could have been just as concerned for her safety inside with that message on her shirt.

CPT Lawrence Cable - Do you have the right to wear your clothes to an event you paid to attend? If someone wore a MAGA hat or shirt to a restaurant, does the restaurant have he right to remove or deny them?

SGT (Join to see) No, fund raisers are private events and the is no right to protest. The sponsor can make any rules the like. Trump events issue tickets, but they are typically free (and over issued), but regardless, can make any rules of admission they like.
