Evergreen College students; too much say

It seems the Port of Olympia is nervously trying to decide whether to allow the students of The Evergreen College to decide for them to allow or not allow some military hardware to be shipped through the port.

A part of that, I suppose, is whether the City of Olympia will be able to allow the hardware to pass on city streets. Some of those same students may not agree to allow that. There were some problems a few years ago if you recall. Of course, with the restrictions put on the police these days, who could stop the students from what they wish?
