If The Public Shouldn't Have Them, Why Does The IRS Need AR-15s?

Here we go again. Stuck in the aftermath of a horrific shooting and all politicians think to do is scheme about how to take more rights from the citizenry. There are no good guys here. The Democrats want to railroad over due process by denying firearms to people on Orwellian watch lists, while Republicans plot to give the FBI more warrantless surveillance powers.This is the authoritarian knee-jerk response to tragedy we get from the U.S Congress.

Hypocritically, when it comes to foreign policy, all we hear are incessant calls for more militarism, more war and more regime change. As I warned in yesterday’s post, Is the Syrian War About to Experience a Major Escalation? — 51 State Department officials just issued a cable calling for the bombing of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad. An event likely to lead to direct confrontation with Russia.

While all of that is bad enough, the U.S. government continues to eagerly and aggressively arm non-defense federal employees with weapons of war.

I wish it wasn't true, but I believe it's time for a civilian uprising. We are now in the same predicament as our founding fathers. Taxation wthout representation. Our elected leaders no more represent our interests than a man on the moon. Our rights are constantly under attack. If we don't take this country back soon, we will never get it back.

IRS is not the only Government Agency that is heavily arming themselves. It is all Agencies. That is why ammunition has been hard to get especially HP. What does that tell us.
