Is this racist?

I know maggot. I get it. It's just that what the militia is doing there is wrongo bongo. No two ways about it. They are creating a situation in an American town to further their own agenda. It is political terrorism at its American finest. These guys weren't just living their lives, and minding their own business. They are intentionally breaking laws and seeking attention. Oregon is being used. For political gain by the militant so called Patriots with their pocket constitution. It is probably in their favor that Obama is the POTUS.

The Bundy boys are beckoning patriots to grab their guns and head to Oregon to join them in their violent threats. They've got food even!, so they boast.

The Hammonds, whose troubles the Bundys have hijacked to forward their own agenda, don't support the Bundys occupation or their violent threats. The vast majority of the Burns' population doesn't want the Bundy anti-government posse in their town. But, the Bundys and company don't give a shit.

They are now demanding that the government forfeit federal land in the Oregon region -- that's their real goal. They're not demanding that it be returned to the Native Americans from whom it was taken. They're demanding it be to turned over to the locals and ranchers like themselves.

Ryan Bundy told The Oregonian's Ian Kullgren that the militiamen are "willing to kill and be killed if necessary." He says the armed interlopers are prepared to stay there for years. They're essentially holding the property hostage and explicitly threatening to kill if they don't get what they want.

I very rarely use the terms 'hate crime' and 'domestic terrorism'. These guys are domestic terrorists. Their father and his armed militia succeeded in pushing off the Feds (who didn't want another Ruby Ridge type situation) by using the same types of tactics. I hope the Feds don't fold this time -- it only encourages more such so-called 'patriots' to use violent threats to get their way.
