If denied access I would refuse to move. Those around we who are also refused access would start to get the idea and eventually there would be a large number of people who also refuse to leave the security area. Can you imagine hundreds of people complaining around the screening area?

Eventually someone would bolt into the gate area (not me I don't want to lose my CCL nor am I condoning this). There would be all kinds of confusion and mayhem. The LEO would call for backup but what are they going to do with 10-15 officers (yes these are officers) with such a large loud crowd? Are they going to arrests 300 people? I don't think that they would have the facilities for this.

If they do that's fine. It would be on national news which the main idea. There would be a large public discussion how the flying public has to be exposed to ionizing radiation or have there sex organs touched. Will be interesting.
