Pics of "armed IRS agents" recruitment unintentional comedy

By now, you’ve probably heard that the IRS is going to start arming agents. The job listing stirred up the proverbial hornet’s nest recently when it explicitly sought those “willing to use deadly force.”

While that requirement has since been deleted, it’s still enough to upset a lot of folks, and for good reason. Yet the IRS is continuing with its efforts to recruit these armed special agents.

Apparently, that recruiting effort is a bit more hands-on than we might imagine, based on a tweet from Rep. Thomas Massie: These are not auditions for the next Police Academy sequel. This is an actual IRS recruiting program. Of course, Massie is a gun guy himself, so he knows how people should be handling a firearm and I agree with him that this ain’t it.
