Actually, the article isn't very clear about her motive at all. It seems that she might have worn the flag to protest the school's limitation of her fellow student's free speech the day before, but it isn't entirely clear.

As far as censoring free speech, it is allowed when the free speech could result in a riot. When I went to high school, there was about 3 or 4 security guards and 2,000 students. If you were the principal, I think you would try to prevent any possible riot any way possible. Imagine 1,000 students fighting 1,000 other students over immigration issues and you, as the principal, trying to deal with that using 4 security guards.

With the amount of facts in the article, and the one sided slant of the article (i.e., pro Malia and free speech), it is tough for me to form an opinion one way or another.
