From the vantage point of where this picture was shot, it looks like not only was the security checkpoint in Terminal 2 shut down, but everybody needed to leave the landside areas of the terminal as well, go across the street, and hang out in the parking lot!
I was flying out of SAN during a terminal dump at the same terminal 3 years ago....the line went all the way into the parking lot where those folks were. Probably the line to be rescreened went out into the lot.
