What is becoming painfully obvious is that the real purpose of this bill has absolutely nothing to do with health care, health care insurance, student loans, nor the IRS. These are nothing but excuses. The real, over-riding purpose behind this bill is a tremendous expansion of government size, power, and control over our very lives. This is pure fascism and socialism writ large.

No excrement, Mr. Holmes.

The IRS Is Looking For 60 12-Gauge Pump Action Guns To Arm Its Investigators
Courtney Comstock | Feb. 3, 2010,

Working for the IRS doesn’t sound so wimpy anymore.

The IRS apparently has plans to buy 60 Remington Model 870 police 12 gauge pump action shotguns for the Criminal Investigation Unit.

According to the federal business government website, these guns are serious.

The Remington parkerized shotguns come fully loaded with:

* A fourteen inch barrel
* Modified choke
* Wilson Combat Ghost Ring rear sight
* XS4 Contour Bead front sight
* Knoxx Reduced Recoil Adjustable Stock
* Speedfeed ribbed black forend

We’re not sure what kind of IRS duty requires this kind of combat artillery, but it sounds badass.

And oddly, these are the only guns the IRS is allowed to use, “based on compatibility with IRS existing shotgun inventory.”
