ammo market

So a buddy who retired as armed security fo IRS in Philly says it's staggering the amount of ammo they have .
IRS moved from Roosevelt Blvd. in the North East to a bldg. right next to 30th St Station . IIRC the old Post Office Bldg . . He said that not only do they have tens of millions of rounds in the basement but that they moved for a reason . I forget if he said the local had little foot traffic or only accessible by vehicle . I do recall that he said loitering is met with a response .
 
Again... WTF does the IRS need with ANY ammo, much less millions of rounds?

They are lawyers and accountants. Not door-kickers.

I don't think the IRS should even exist. But since they do exist, how about letting the IRS file the necessary legal paperwork and let the US marshals do the door-kicking when it's "necessary."

EPA, HUD, Dept of Education, etc... are staffed by paper shufflers not commandos. The list of agencies with the authorization to carry weapons/ammo should be able to be counted on one hand.

I don't need (nor should I pay for) Carl from the Dept. of Ed's textbook division toting an MP5.

When the time comes...the alphabets will hire contractors to take care of pockets of resistance. Each agency will have it's set of goons. Little easier to spread around 1B worth of spending if you spread it around to a couple of dozen agencies.
 
You guys are dumb.
Think.
No really.....fucking think.

The more the government buys, the less that is available for us.
Now, with this new found knowledge.....THINK.

It is an attempt to take guns from us in a sideways sneaky way.
Nothing more....nothing less.
 
So total hypothetical question that's always been in my mind.

If on 9/11 the terrorists had run the planes into IRS buildings instead of the WTC and Pentagon;

A. Would we have ever gone to war?

B. Would anyone have cared a week later?

C. What would the probability be that the US citizen would have had a more favorable outlook on muslim terrorists as opposed to the IRS?

I realize this is the internet. So my earlier post questioning why the alphabet soup gang needs ammo was rhetorical... I'm guessing the snark didn't come across like I wanted it to.

Everyone understands that this is a backdoor method of hamstringing gun owners.

After VanDerBrink starred in that YouTube video whining about how he was "sick and tired" of all the hate because Vista was running 24/7 making ammo... My local guy called around and couldn't find a single distributor who was receiving any of those truckloads of Federal/CCI/Speer ammo.

When Wal-Mart can't get ammo it doesn't take a detective to figure out where it's all going... And why.

Right, with the looming tidal wave of red flags coming, they'll need all hands on deck to implement "the great confiscation"
