ARIZONA – During a training exercise on Thursday, an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent lost their life due to an inadvertent shooting by another agent, ABC15 reported.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) said they’re actively looking into a “shooting incident” that occurred at the Federal Correctional Institutional (FCI) Phoenix firing range on Thursday afternoon. However, the FBOP hasn’t been able to provide additional specifics at this time

While this is obviously horrific news, many wondered why IRS agents are training with deadly weapons to begin with.

It feels like all Americans should be concerned we are training IRS agents to use deadly force over unpaid taxes.

Why can't the police arrest people who need to go to jail for financial crimes? Doesn't that seem safer for all involved?

Let's not and say we did.

That's an idea! Militarizing federal agencies should be terrifying to all Americans. This death is a terrible example of what can go wrong when we arm government employees.
