As for intimidating and access - I heard directly from a UH student and technician in the ecology research side of things on MK that they were in tears because they felt scared and did not want to show their ID to protesters. They stated their business as plant and bug surveys, and were on the OMKM/State list, but were not taken at their word by protesters. It is disgusting that the protesters asked these students and technician for ID, then were turned around when they would not give the 'aloha checkpoint' people their Drivers licenses. There were no police officers nearby to assist, and the students left because they did not want to deal with it.
