I thought it might be interesting to discuss the difference between this and the Malheur stand-off/protest/whatever.

The media is clearly taking a much difference stance. There are some clear differences in how the protest is being operated and also some similarities. Although it certainly seems the protesters have broken quite a few laws and have trespassed on private and public property, they have not taken control of a federal building.
