Why did the IRS buy 5,000,000 rounds of ammo?
NYS Firearms Association ^ | June 25, 2022 | Aaron Dorr

Posted on 08/13/2022 4:42:01 AM PDT by LibertyWoman

3,151,500 rounds of pistol ammo.

Over 350,000 rounds of shotgun ammo.

Almost 1.5 million rounds of rifle ammo.

In just the last few months, the Internal Revenue Service has bought almost 5,000,000 rounds of small arms ammunition — spending almost $700,000 in the process.

The obvious question is why would a bunch of bean counters who spend their days staring at computer screens need to stock up on millions of rounds of ammo?

This is the third term of the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Oh those black clad boyz with all their toyz come a knockin round 4am.

They come with overwhelming force when you and your family are tucked away. Quietly zzzzzz’n away until the front door is smashed open, rear window shattered as these jackboots breach your home screaming commands, lights in your eyes, muzzles in your kid’s faces as they force them to the floor.

Anyone tries to defend their home will end up taking a dirt nap.

If the political landscape in 2023 and 2024 proves to be as the polls indicate this IRS and the DOJ should be eliminated! Should!

I think you’re on the right track. Of the current employees, estimated at 76,000 I believe only about 2,300 carry, if they add 87,000 new employees, then that number grows to approximately 5,000 who actually carry so you’re looking at 1,000 rounds per armed employee. With regular proficiency training that’s not a big number. Adding 87,000 employees, more than doubling your staff, is a bigger question. How on God’s green earth can any govt agency need to more than double in size.

They revealed the truth in the now deleted recruitment ad that referenced firearms and force. Ammo needed for both of those.

Counter theory . Buy it up so others can’t in case of a revolt.

Quoting the old Buffalo Springfield line

Paranoia it strikes you deep , into your heart it starts to creep

Sums up the fear of our govt for its citizens

2023 IRS Budget - $80 billion

2023 Russian Military Budget - $66 billion

In a ONE DAY COUP all 'enemies of the coup' (patriotic Americans) will be shot. - These guns and ammo aren't for us - not in the first day - they're for the IRS 'fellow employees'. Taking out 'useful idiots' and people who might try to stop them.

Do this in every bureaucracy and a commie backed coup is over in one day

Instead of pouring the money into updating the ridiculously paper-intensive, manual IRS process, the funds are designated to double the labor costs. Upgrading the antiquated software would be much more cost effective. Can't have that, now can we?

Who is available to fill all of these new 87,000 positions? My first thought are the illegal aliens streaming across the border. Crazy, huh? Otherwise, they know a lot of corporate downsizing will occur in the coming months, and they expect to tap that pool.

House raids may prove dangerous and they need to defend themselves and they need to have intimidation tools.

2023 IRS Budget - $80 billion

2023 Russian Military Budget - $66 billion

Out there - but consider a worst case senerio:

In a ONE DAY COUP 'enemies of the coup' (patriotic Americans) will be shot at the desks of their government jobs.

The guns and ammo aren't there to kill conservatives - at least not in the first days - they're to kill IRS's senior 'fellow top management employees'.

For the Pentagon's to kill high ranking fellow officers.

For the Social Security's honest American employees who are NOT part of the coup.

Same with other government agencies. The goal is to take over all the reins of power in one day

Taking out 'useful idiots' and people who might try to stop them.

Do this in every bureaucracy and a commie backed coup is over in one day. That's my guess - not much else makes sense.

Ammo is still a scarce and expensive commodity. A lot of this ammo will make it onto the black market and be sold to us by the crooked bean counters themselves.
