Terrorist insurrection against the US Government? OK as long as you're white

[Zanza]

What happens if the federal government ignores those hillbillies? What happens if they send in the black helicopters? I think the latter would give better TV pictures.

This isn't terrorism. Uggh. Not every bad thing someone does is terrorism.

Occupying buildings have long been a method of protest here, obviously no guns are involved. Usually it's peaceful but the more extreme kind of occupiers sometimes use molotov cocktails and such against the police.

It's not terrorism.

College kids have been occupying places for years now.

Hell there was an enormous protest movement that took the word for their name...

We actually also had an occupation yesterday. 20 or so people entered an empty government building to illustrate that Denmark has plenty of space to host refugees instead of in tent camps.

They were all arrested and the media went with calling them intruders and didn't really write about why they did it.

The reason the Fighting Seedies managed to stay as long as they did is because they were given permission to camp in a privately owned park.

That's true of Zucotti Park in NYC, but the national Occupy movement involved a lot of occupations (that violated the law) of public parks around the country.

Hey, Fuck You Grumbles.

If the moron shoe fits, then you're the one who's fucked, beebs.

I don't know. Arson will land you in the can over here too, although not five years (unless there's been danger of personal injury).

If there has a mandatory five-year prison sentence for burning some grass on government-owned property, then there's legislators are morons, too.

Here's What Happened When Black People Tried Armed Occupation

[Valmy]

I gladly give up my white privilege to occupy federal buildings while carrying weapons.

If there has a mandatory five-year prison sentence for burning some grass on starting a fire to cover a crime, using accelerants, and putting the lives and property of others at grave risk on government-owned property, then there's legislators are morons, too.

There, fixed it for you.

Usually, the feds would respond by burning the building. But that might be hypocritical in this case.

Were these people equipped with firearms?
