I suspect they knew the possible consequences going in and did it anyway. They're obviously not stupid people, and knew the lengths the government would go to protect a nuclear weapons facility. I applaud them either way. They have exposed how extremist our government has become in the name of "stopping" terrorism, and have probably had much more far reaching effects in doing so than if they had just been charged with trespassing. Many eyes are on the US government right now, and things like this inspire criticism from within and without.
