Default IRS buying shotguns?

https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportun...&cck=1&au=&ck=

What are they buying shotguns for?

We recall the case of the Shoshone war band which showed up complete with one 30-30 rifle per man the week after Pearl Harbor, and simply wanted to have the enemy pointed out to them. "We hear there's a war going on and we want to go fight it." Jeff Cooper

The IRS has also hired a crap load of new agents. They need to audit more people to help pay for Barry's AdolfCare, don't you know The shotguns are just to help scare more people into paying "interest and penalties." Like I've said before, pretty soon tax evasion will be looked upon as a worse crime than murder, like it is in all totalitarian regimes.

You notice that, once again, the government gets to have stuff we can't?

The IRS has its own agents that are basically a branch of law enforcement. They're as well armed as any police.

Tax evasion is already worse than murder. The pen is mightier than the sword. How do you think the notorious AL CAPONE was convicted and sent to alcatraz? Tax evasion.

Tax evasion is OK if you are a Democratic member of Congress or a part of the Obummer administration. Geithner, Rangle,etc

You're wrong. Cops have to follow the Constitution - you know, warrants and no confiscation without due process. Revenuers don't.

They're going to come get you when you don't want to pay taxes you don't agree with.

I wish everyone in the entire country would just NOT pay income tax this year. They can't get us all can they? They should outlaw income tax and reintroduce tariffs instead.

Meh, I got my 1911. It's a gun I can count on.

If you wish to fight them off, go get one of those Mossberg 500 12-gauge pump actions with the pistol grip on it. I forget what they call it exactly but it's the one without the stock on it, has a pistol grip and shorter barrel than a regular old 500.

I'd have to be like the Terminator and get me a sawed off pump 12-gauge Ithica 37. Or a SPAS-12 autoloader, although idk the legality or availability of the SPAS.

Lol. Good movie. I think T2 was just as good if not better. Salvation wasn't as bad as T3, but not as good as the first two.

But hey don't mean to get too off topic.

"The Terminator" was pretty good. T2 was the best of all of them. T3 was terrible. It made me sick to my a**. I wanted to puke my face off. Salvation envoked a similar response. They should have just let The Sarah Connor Chronicles stay on the air and just not messed with Salvation and completely ignored T3.

But I digress. We now return to your regularly scheduled thread, already in progress
