Looks like the IRS is much hated now following Joseph Stack's attack on the Austin IRS building two days prior.

The IRS and the Fed are both unconstitutional anyways, and they are ripe for looting.

I wonder if the fact that some IRS employees are total scumbags has anything to do with this.

Hey - what happened to the web design course? I see you’re on a Business Administration course now?

I’m not sure the IRS is actually unconstitutional, but certainly most of its current reach is.

People need to be kinder to the IRS employees. Once Bammie sneaks ObamaCare through, the IRS is going to be making all of your healthcare decisions for you. I imagine the CIA and NASA will also be involved in your healthcare decisions too.

Thousands of new IRS agents are being hired.

"Some expressed the view Friday that public expressions of outrage against the government and government employees may have fueled violent crimes by Mr. Stack and others like him."

This brings to mind the "chicken or egg" argument. Maybe the people woulkd be less outraged if the IRS was less outrageous.

Hating the IRS is as American as apple pie.

killing himself and one IRS employee and injuring 13 others.

That means 14 out of 200 fed employees showed up for work that day. Most of the building was in flames.

It is a shame about that. There have been IRS abuses of citizens though. But, the IRS doesn’t make the laws, they just enforce them, sometimes a little to vigorously. People should be ticked at congress who made all of these insane tax laws.

Following the attack, Inspector General J. Russell George said his agency will consider whether changes to security policies are necessary to improve safety.

Bet things would improve with changes in other policies. But just a guess...

Oh, yeah sure. It’s hard enough for me to work up any sympathy for the IRS when somebody plane-bombs them. If you can’t take the heat, stay out of the IRS.

I do feel sorry for the victim, Mr. Hunter. He was just trying to get his last year of employment in so he could retire with a fatter pension. Wrong place, wrong time.

How is that dissallowing legal deductions even with documentation thing working out for them?

Seems like even the left is willing to fly planes into their buildings.

I predict no sympathy coming to them no matter how bad things get for them.

Since the federal government is all about racial quotas and statistics, a statistic I would like to know is the percentage of IRS employees that are minorities.

I don’t know... I’ve got more important things to worry about than a plane flying in to an IRS building.

These threats are misplaced, but it is a good place to start. If people refuse to be accountable for their vote, what is the next choice?.

If every IRS employee quits because their job is not worth their life, who would say that is a bad thing?

I have the solution: replace the income tax with the FairTax and abolish the IRS!

Then, all IRS employees could be retired, and they would not have to worry about their safety anymore!

And the American people would be FRee! To work, earn, save and invest without fearing the tyranny of the IRS.
