Have you ever been evicted for tax issues? My understanding is that the police are the ones armed to the teeth. And the police are not the IRS.

if you don't pay your auto registration, eventually an armed police officer will pull you over and your car will be impounded. Does this make the DMV a legitimate military target?

I thought you said it was intent that matters. My mistake.

Look at what you wrote. The subtext is so obvious a blind person could see it.

Give me an example of a single person not associated with any organization who fulfills your very specific definition of terrorism if I misread what you meant.

I've been to several Tea party protests and I have photographic evidence to prove it. How many have you been to? How many people have you talked to at actual Tea Party protests?
