Ten College Republicans were dubbed a security threat and refused admittance to President Barack Obama's speech at the University of Central Missouri on Wednesday.

Despite the fact that the students had tickets to the event, security personnel turned them away at the door to the recreation center where Obama gave a speech on economic policy, telling the group it wasn't about their politics but the president's safety, State Treasurer of the College Republicans Courtney Scott told The College Fix.
