The funny thing is that the base has been expanding which leads me to believe that there are all kinds of weapons and advanced flight research still happening there.
And a pretty no nonsense warning has been posted by the US Military on line.
Now will they shoot people? Probably not unless these idiots cross a well defined "Line in the sand". But I'm betting that the FBI is already monitoring this as is the DIA, and the Air Force is going to have extra personal, and non lethal yet extremely uncomfortable methods of breaking this thing up.
It stops becoming a joke if some of these idiots thing that they can rush one of the most highly classified government facilities in the country.

From what I’m reading elsewhere, the main gate is 15 miles from the base. The area is so sparse, that closing a couple of roads can essentially make a gate 50 miles away where no vehicles could pass, so everyone would have to be on foot... across the desert... in the crazy heat... for 50 miles.
Even if they didn’t close roads, having thousands of people coming down the roads would create a giant traffic jam that would likely cripple cars in the heat.
Most 4x4 vehicles aren’t particularly well suited to travel across the desert either, so that’s not really an option.
Basically, you would have to be a particularly determined bunch to even get to the main gate - and it you did, you would get hit by the military’s non-lethal weapons, which would make you wish you hadn’t gotten that far.
Anyone who is determined enough to continue on would be easy targets for whatever means the military would want to deal with them with.
