Pissed that there is a Black President(their boss), more women in congress(bosses) and more equal rights for gays. They see the country changing culturally from their own ideal and they can't handle it.

Not everyone in the Fed is like that. But enough that they have a lot of power over how decisions are made.

So they gave Bundy a pass. They were already sympathetic. If Bundy were the color of some of his Native American neighbors, they would have lost their minds overreacting to him.

They would have blown his brains out long ago.

And yes that is injustice. This is why democratic involved in government is so important. So people like the judge in this case, and the bigots in the Federal government don't come to power.
