IRS arming for war?

The IRS is contracted with several vendors to obtain various specialized
weapons and covert surveillance materials. Please see:
http://www.treas.gov/sba/irssic.html For example, Remington Model 11-87
Shotguns (a $200,000 contract) are a special model made exclusively for the
IRS, holding 8 cartridges instead of the normal legal limit of 3. This page
also documents contracts for equipment and services such as: * Clock/Radio
Audio Video Transmitters; $200,000; General Microwave Service, Inc. *
Semi-automatic Handguns; $1,000,000; Sigarms, Inc. * Subminiature Audio
Recorders & Playback Units; $1,000,000; Nagra USA * Purchase and Support of
Data Encryption Radios; $50,000,000; Motorola, Inc. Why does Congress allow
the IRS to arm so many of its agents so heavily against American citizens?
Is it really necessary for the IRS to spy on American citizens? Is this part
of the IRS reform legislation that was recently passed to make the IRS more
responsive to taxpayers? These IRS related problems and the increasing
pressure to squeeze Americans -- and their freedoms -- by moving to the
National Retail Sales Tax! Instead of attempting to intimidate and strong
arm Americans with intrusive and abusive tactics -- all of which increase
the growing gap between citizens and "their" (allegedly) government), those
110,000 IRS employees could get REAL jobs. Guarding our southern border
springs to mind.

What is the IRS going to do with these new weapons? I would like to see the
weapons requisition of the BATF and the U. S. Marshalls Service!
