“Defense played a role in starting the Malheur occupation as well: the Hammonds’ arson conviction fell under a provision of a federal law punishing terrorism. Conjuring sympathy for the militia, we might imagine that the militants and patriot organizations who got involved in the occupation did so out of shock that ranchers could be sent to jail, as terrorists, in the course of their job. And yet many who otherwise worry about the escalating security complex in this country have spun the conflict in terms of birdwatching.“
