Activists in a motor vessel spread a sign near the Mukilteo, Wash., ahead of the Noble Discoverer during its departure to the Arctic, June 30, 2015. Coast Guard actions are not aimed at restricting the lawful exercise of First Amendment Rights but the Coast Guard's involvement helps ensure safety of those using the waterway both as a forum for self-expression and as a mode of transportation.
