DHS Meets Tea Party Protesters At IRS Offices

[gun sane]

I would have liked to ask those storm troopers, "How many of those billions of taxpayer funded pistol rounds did you get?"

You mean the agency tasked to protect federal buildings (FPS) was outside of a federal building during a protest.  And what makes these guys storm troopers.  I can not see anything in the article you provided to show that they did anything other than stand there

What's the big deal? A law enforcement agency standing by during protest incase something was to happen. You don't see them trying to stop the protest or violating any rights.

1st response in the comments section nailed it.

"If only Obama had provided this much security for our folks in Bengazi" ....

I didn't insinuate that the DHS shouldn't be there.   I said that was the question I would have put to them.  And my descriptive comment is my personal opinion based upon Janet Napolitano's severely misguided suspicions of patriotic groups and those on the right who are openly critical of the overreaches this government has made to oppress the rights of law-abiding citizens.  To me, the comparison of this administration's goals and tactics to the genesis of the nightmare of Germany's brutal regime of the last century is not only similar but frightening.
