Boston Shooting response

1) The "bad guy" let his tax issue "age" way too long. If you get a payment notice from the IRS, you have plenty of time to request a review and/or make payment arrangements. Only if you IGNORE them will they take action like garnishing wages.

2) Once payment arrangements are made, you can make small payments, eventually paying off the amount owed.

3) $2000 is "nothing", relatively speaking. One year I owed the blood-suc, I mean, the IRS $12,000. That was AFTER paying $10,000 for the year. We survived, never had wages garnished, and managed to pay them off. (Took us 3 years though)

4) To avoid issues with them in the future, you gotta get "creative". I did. You can too.

Shooting the EMPLOYEES is not the answer. If the guy was gonna shoot someone, he should've shot the IRS guy that ordered it. The employer was just following what they considered a lawful government order.

No matter what, they guy was nutzo. Perhaps the IRS pushed him too hard, but he went after the WRONG target(s). Now, he pi$$ed away his life, and made NO EFFECTIVE anti-IRS statement at all. None. Zip.
 
If he had attempted to shoot an IRS agent, he'd be painted as a tax dodger who wouldn't pay his "fair share," and killed a man who was just doing his job.

And the chances of him getting near an IRS agent while he was on the job is nearly zero which means for him to be effective, he would have to be shot near his home and it wouldn't be an IRS agent that got shot but a "loving husband and father of three."

An all-out assault on an IRS building is suicide, but apparantly the only thing that anyone here would accept.

In war, you blow up the munitions plant even when there are civilians working there. In McDermott's war he killed the civilians who are helping the government rob him.

That much shouldn't be too difficult for you to see. You may still not agree with his decision to do it, but the logic is simple.
 
were not in a war and the two situations aren't analagous

like I said before we aren't to the point yet were killing people is the only way to solve the IRS problem and I'm guessing that he made more people mad at him than the IRS so him killing his co workers did NOTHING absoloutly NOTHING. I understand why people are as mad at the IRS as they are ,but we have to fight smart. Killing people who cooperate with the IRS is obviously not going to change things so why do it?
 
Why Tax us at all????????

Really, ask your self the question, why?.
The IRS is a private corporation.........
The Federal Reserve, is not Federal, is a private group of commercial banks, and International banks.( not a gov agency, just in word only).
The U S government, Dept of the Treasury, can print all the money it wants...........it's fiat anyway, so why tax US????
CONTROL..........pure and simple.
Stop, and think about it, the next time you write a check to the bureau.........then when you get it back cashed, look on the back.
Pay To Any Federal Reserve Bank...........not a US govt agency, why????????
It's YOUR money..........think about it.

To the topic started...........
There is absolutely NO reason or excuse that can be rationaly made for this mans acts of cold blooded murder...period.
If he is insane, I can understand, he's not accountable, if he's sane, then he dies.....the sooner the better.
 
I can't say that I agree with McDermott's actions, and yet for some reason I feel the need to continue defending his motive...

Bullpup, of course he was in a war. The IRS declared economic war on him. Imagine if France (HA!) put a blocade on anything that went into Britain. France hasn't fired a shot (because they're all busy making creme brule'), but they're not letting any supplies or cash onto the island. There would be British ships firing on French ships within minutes.

The unfortunate truth is that companies are more afraid of what the IRS will do to them if they don't send them their employees' money that what the employees will do. If everyone took McDermott's view, no company would dare send money to the IRS because they would fear for their lives.

I certainly don't advocate using 7.62 as a negotiating tool with your company, but having companies fear us more than the IRS would certainly be a good thing.
 
In this particular situation him killing his coworkers didn't and isn't going to change anything so what did his actions accomplish? Nothing. All he did was find himself a nice little cell in prison in which he gets to think of how he just blew away the rest of his life. Thats it. If the situation is as hopeless as some think it is in this country then maybe we outa just go buy up a bunch of land
and declare ourselves independant of the United States. I don't think we are at the point were thats the only way we can get our freedoms back, but I understand how some could feel that way, it would be alot easier to defend someone who did that than kill his coworkers. Mikul, I understand what your saying and I agree with some of what your saying, but if we want to live in this country and change the way things are done killing your co workers isn't going to do it. All that does is infuriate people. Remember the guy who killed the abortion docter? It might not have been immoral for him to kill him in order to prevent him from killing babies, but it didn't change anything. Not a singal law was passed to stop the killing of babies. What did happen is that it got alot of people upset at the pro life movement and probably set us back a little which means in the end more babies die. Don't get me wrong, I'm not happy about the situation in this country either, but I realize that guys like this killing his coworkers isn't going to change the way these things are done, not in this country at this time. Don't worry about the French, there wimps and couldn't blocade a sand bar without losing a few ships, :D :D
 
the IRS has been mentioned

the IRS has been mentioned
Re the Wakefield Ma. office shooting of a few days ago, there has been much mention of The IRS and how their actions might have driven the shooter "over the edge". There has also been mention, as I recall, of shooting IRS agents and that sort of thing. Several members have also enlightened readers concerning their "interaction" with IRS.

In another location, I came upon the following links:

www.getawarrant.com and www.informamerica.com, which address various aspects of these matters. Informamerica includes a 30 minute explainatory voiceover. Also the following link was presented, (http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=245&invol=151 which seems to have a bearing on the above mentioned also.

I believe that at least one "member" of this board is an attorney. Possibly he might be able to offer something of interest.
