On May 30, twenty-two people were arrested at one of the largest turnouts at the protest against the shipment of Stryker brigades at the Port of Olympia, which began on May 22.

That evening, a group of 60-70 protesters marched from the Shell station on State and Plum to the gates of the Port of Olympia. Once the protesters arrived the gates were shut and more police arrived from both the Olympia Police Department and the Thurston County Sheriffs Department.
