IRS should have to go through the local sheriff's department for armed enforcement IMO although I'm not sure what they'd do in a case like Al Capone's Chicago. Then again, the only things I like about Chicago are the pizza, hot dogs, and Sean Connery's line in The Untouchables.
    i believe agencies that have law enforcement duties such as the border patrol or park rangers are included in the plan.

    Wouldn't it be better if all citizens who want to be armed were armed? If the government can subsidize food, healthcare, retirement, cell phones, etc... it would be helpful if they would provide tax breaks for the purchase and maintenance of firearms and ammunition by law abiding citizens.

    There are PLENTY of non-military Federal employees that need to be armed.

    BAD IDEA- BLM SWAT Team
    GOOD IDEA- BATF Inspector with a sidearm.
    BAD IDEA- IRS Strike Force with full-auto M4s.
    GOOD IDEA- Postal Fraud Inspector with a sidearm.

    Why would you deny them the right to self defense when you cherish it for private citizens?

    No. There are many people question arming even the most obvious of federal personnel.
