Yes, these are the Bundy's from Arizona that offered an armed militia as their answer to payment of grazing leases. Leases are leases, the USA has all kinds of leases and they are an income to the USA treasury.

Ryan Bundy, one of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy's sons, is involved in the armed takeover of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
God, patriotism and militia support (click here) led him to Oregon wildlife refuge standoff against the federal government, he said....
...What drove the Arizona business owner to think he could defend a family he'd never met in a small ranching community on a windswept range he'd never visited was a mixture of religion, patriotism and anti-government fervor. In videos posted on YouTube and other social-media sites this month, he would explain that he was there because American values and a Western way of life were under threat.
God told him the cause was righteous, Bundy said. And militia members told him they would back him up....
According to the reporting in this You Tube video by RT, the local citizen working in the diner stated, there were reasons to be upset with the federal government, but, did not approve of the methods.
I found the local sheriff more than kind and willing to listen. That is the strength of the situation. I really believe the Sheriff is interested in what the local citizens have to say, with or without the Bundys.
