Most are wondering why the Oregon terrorists are being coddled by the FBI and not labeled as terrorists by an appreciable portion of the media. I don't know that anyone has said this makes anything else okay to do
“We’ve never, in the history of this country, passed any laws or done anything based on race or religion.”
-Gov. Haley
Please don't Fox Newsify this -- completely taken out of context.
"When you've got immigrants who are coming here legally, we've never in the history of this country passed any laws or done anything based on race or religion. … We've gone too far than to go back into a race and religion issue. I've been through those fights. That’s not worth it."
She may be wrong, but her intentions are at least in the right place.

To be terrorists, don't you have to do or threaten harm? Were the Occupy people terrorists?
sigh - they are not all promises but it is pretty powerful when you hear them all together.

i'd say occupying the buildings with high powered weapons is pretty threatening
Occupy - stands in public space unarmed outside private buildings and chants slogans
Militia - stages armed takeover of public building and threatens violence against those who try to stop them
Which one looks like a terrorist?
I think of terrorism as the use of force or intimidation as a means of gaining or exerting political pressure to further a goal(s).
This is almost certainly terrorism, and it has been referred to as such by the government. This group took over a federal building with guns, how would that not be terrorism?
The Occupy groups, with some exceptions where people were arrested (Moral Monday type stuff), were generally occupying public space and were presumably protected by the First Amendment.
Taking over a federal building with guns is a clear-cut crime and it's clearly terrorism. I really don't see how you could reasonably argue to the contrary at all.

Didn't they explicitly say that they meant no one harm? They occupied a remote building that they knew was empty. They are fucking idiots, not terrorists.
You sure about that?

And if idiot Muslims did the same thing trying to embarrass the US government?
Terrorists or just idiots that happen to be Muslim?
