I mean this is something Biden literally cannot do since he’s not the governor of Indiana, but beyond that I imagine this is just a fairly common local police department regulation that happens anytime there are lots of police deployed for large protests/gatherings/etc

Obviously it would be very terrible to fire on the dumb protesters but “police sniper put on rooftop overlooking large contentious gathering” seems pretty dog bites man.
@bendreyfuss Sure, perfectly normal. Besides, if they’re going to shoot someone, it’s more obscure if no one saw the shooter.
@bendreyfuss I appreciate the inclusion of "quite literally" in his quite wrong statement.
@bendreyfuss "Put their snipers away" Bob, laura. Back to your cupboards.
@bendreyfuss Exactly. Overwatch en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overwatch…
@bendreyfuss The irony is that the sniper is there if a mass shooter decides to take advantage of the large ununsanctioned crowd. Not to randomly snipe protesters.
@bendreyfuss The local police had snipers on the roofs at a local college when we were protesting a Richard Spencer appearance. This is not an uncommon or unique thing lmao
