Suddenly the IRS decides "We'll start being nicer about this." Right.

The questions are "Do they actually mean it?", and "Is this because it's right, or because it makes their employees feel better?"

Or, of course, bad publicity is causing them problems and they want that to stop.

Should've happened a long time ago simply because it's a bad way to act.

It's because they were handed the ability to seize bank accounts and do computer fishing without warrants. So why put themselves in physical risk when they can do everything in air-conditioned splendor far far away from any potential tax scofflaw?

Most likely the IRS agents themselves pointed out that the surprise home visits are good way to get shot.

Does this mean the IRS still gets those 80K+ armed agents?

Seriously, you've gotta really suck at your job to lose a deal to a demented old fuque)
