So a bunch of people plan to "storm Area 51"

in #news5 years ago

They claim that "they can't stop all of us!" and at the moment more than 120,000 people have signed up to attend.

it took me a while to understand the "no drone" picture warning

While a great deal of this can definitely be chalked up to online trolling and a vast majority of the people that have signed up almost certainly cant actually make it there are a number of problems with this idea, if it were to actually take place.

  1. The group, which is primarily on FB, states the exact time and place that the "meet up" is meant to happen. I guess this will streamline the whole authorities preventing this from happening.

  2. If this "rush" of the base were to happen, I can assure you, as someone with military experience, that it is ENTIRELY possible for the U.S. military to stop an oncoming horde of human bodies.

Obviously they wouldn't use lethal force unless they absolutely had to but to suggest that they couldn't stop all of you is absurd, they definitely can. They wouldn't feel good about it but they could probably stop a force of that size using almost entirely non-lethal means also and simply save the machine guns for anyone that got past the initial tear gas armada that assembled on the perimeter.

It's a funny proposal, and it is epic trolling for sure. It will be exciting to see how many people actually turn up on September 20th. I reckon it will be less than 1,000 and they will be easily dispersed just by the local State Police.

Sort:  

Them: This is where they keep the cool alien tech.
Also Them: yOu cAn'T sToP uS aLl!!!1!

If anyone does show up my money's on a sound cannon tho!

Yes, this is why humans created an omnidirectional satellite grid. So we can communicate and come up with more harebrained schemes.

Wow this IS a dumb idea but I like their enthusiasm. I would certainly love to get inside the facility. The difference here is that I understand it's virtually impossible.
I'm interested in what will happen

So many people will try to enter Area 51?

This might actually occur if there is collapse of civilization, such as the events in the fall of the Roman Empire

This can interesting
