If the USAF Security Forces are expecting several tens of thousands of visitors all marshaling outside their immediate area of responsibility, they’d be foolish not to ask the feds to cordon off that area.

And it makes sense as Area 51 is very remote. You can’t just rush it from a mile away. There’s a lot of rough terrain to cover and a lot of logistics will be needed. Like organizing the Boston Marathon or a central American migrant ‘caravan’.

The Nevada Desert takes no prisoners.

Oh for God’s sakes!

It is NOTHING like this at all. Nothing, zilch, zero, nada, keine.

No Americans protesting for war bonuses, starving or otherwise. Dum bass conspiracy theorists and kooks might want to try, but there’s no comparison to WWI veterans.

The base is where classified defense projects are born and tested.

They don’t have a reason to storm the base UNLESS they’re being paid to do so by the Russians, Iranian Mullahs or the Red Chinese.

Hillary thought she could ignore classification laws, too. Don’t be like Hillary.

What’s wrong with you?

Do you think the services squabble like this? Are they the enemy to each other?

So, if the Marine Corps had a top secret weapons base in the middle of the desert and a bunch of loonies and kooks thought there was UFOs on it and been saying so for 50+ years, with the fringe media egging them on, then yes, they’d probably be doing the same.

Doesn't matter that they're not impressed. A lot of people, apparently, are ignorant of US Air Force installation defense capability. They can be impressed if and when they get there.

No, I don't agree a mob of Millenials would not have attempted this on a Marine base-- or any competently defended base-- because I don't underestimate their stupidity.

Maybe they can spread the story that the stuff has been moved to places like Pelosi’s estate and De blasio’s back yard...and Obama’s mansion...

Yes the Air Force is there and they will talk to you in a stern voice if you try to pass!

If we naruto run, we can move faster than their bullets. Lets see them aliens.”
If I read that correctly, they plan on emulating a cartoon character. Any survivors should be out in a mental institution for custodial care. They obviously aren't for for the real world.
