What a crazy story! I suspected this was, under the surface, the tale of a douchey foreign archaeologist pissing off the locals, but no.

The "family of squatters" who bring in a backhoe kind of sounds like Ammon Bundy's clan.
- jessehorne 6y agoI think comparing the squatters to Ammon Bundys family and supporters is completely ignorant. I'm not hoping to insult you but I do wish you would go and do a bit more research, my friend. I cannot agree with Ammon on several things but this is a grossly misguided comparison.
- driverdan 6y agoYou're right. The Bundys are lawless domestic terrorists. These people don't sound like terrorists.
- jessehorne 6y agoIt's shocking to me that you say this. What was their action that you claim to be an act of terrorism?
- vict00ms 6y agoThe armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge is a pretty clear-cut example.
- jessehorne 6y agoThat isn't an example of domestic terrorism, though.
- ryanlol 6y agoYou might want to open up a dictionary and look up the definition of “terrorism” again. Just doing something illegal with guns doesn’t quite qualify.
- acct776 6y agoIt's an incredibly similar case...
- wutbrodo 6y ago"Terrorist" has taken on a LOT of different meanings. What do you see as terroristic in Bundy's actions that is missing from the actions of these squatters?
