Main article: threatening terrorism against the United States
18 U.S.C. § 2332b(1)(g) makes it a class C felony, punishable by 10 years imprisonment, for someone to willfully threaten to commit a crime that will result in death or great bodily harm; the threat is made with the specific intent that it be taken as a threat; the threat is so unequivocal, unconditional, and specific as to convey a gravity of purpose and immediate prospect of execution; the threat actually causes fear in the victim; and the fear is reasonable.[4]

Not seeing the connection. They never made claims that they were going to take over property and refuse to leave until their demands were met.

As to your question about why the media isn't calling them terrorists...  I think they are handling these nuts with kid gloves knowing they aren't the most intellectually gifted of folks.  No need to stir the pot, they're doing a fine job of showing their lack of constitutional knowledge themselves.
