Whew boy, no. Revenue Agents and Revenue Officers do not carry firearms. Revenue Agents perform audits and are not police.
Take the tin foil hat off and quit spreading this FUD.

- washbrain 4y agoThere exist armed officers in the IRS. They are called "special agents" in the "criminal investigation division". They are federal law enforcement, like the FBI, who seize assets in criminal tax fraud cases. They are not the majority of hires, and they are not the ones doing audits, and I'm guessing they will be a tiny, tiny fraction of any IRS expansion. My office building when I worked for Boeing had an armed security guard, that does not mean that if Boeing expands by 10k jobs that suddenly there will be 10k more guns in the factory. So yes, your original post is clearly out of phase with reality.
