Why is this JLabel continuously repainting?

I've got an item that appears to continuously repaint when it exists, causing the CPU to spike whenever it is in any of my windows. It directly inherits from a JLabel, and unlike the other JLabels on the screen, it has a red background and a border. I have NO idea why it would be different enough to continuously repaint. The callstack looks like this:

Thread [AWT-EventQueue-1] (Suspended (breakpoint at line 260 in sItem)) 
    sItem.paint(Graphics) line: 260 
    sItem(JComponent).paintToOffscreen(Graphics, int, int, int, int, int, int) line: 5124

It basically just continually hits that over and over again as fast as I can press continue. The code that is "unique" to this particular label looks approximately like this:

bgColor = OurColors.clrWindowTextAlert;
textColor = Color.white;
setBackground(bgColor);
setOpaque(true);
setSize(150, getHeight());
Border border_warning = BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder(
        BorderFactory.createMatteBorder(1, 1, 1, 1, OurColors.clrXBoxBorder),
        Global.border_left_margin);
setBorder(border_warning);

It obviously does more, but that particular block only exists for these labels that are causing the spike/continuous repaint.

Any ideas why it would keep repainting this particular label?
