re: #1 Destro

It would have been cool if an armed citizen(s) shot them dead on the spot as suspected terrorists, etc.

If they had wandered onto a military base, the MPs might have done just that. Whatever you may think of the military, they don’t jack around with lethal weapons. If an MP had challenged them, they probably would have assumed this was an Obama minion coming to trample their rights. That would have been the end of them.
