It's not their land, it's federal land. They're upset because they want to have federal land given back to states so that they can exploit it for their own personal gains. 

Also, the Occupy Wall St movement  members were met with force and arrested when they were breaking the law, as they should have been. The difference is, they camped in a public park and these guys broke into a government building with weapons.
