minus-squarecaptainlezbian@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoNo, these are police snipers their job is to shoot anyone who actually succeeds at hurting cops. They aren’t the same tactical role as military snipers
minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoTheir “job” here is intimidating protestors… They can’t do that if they’re not seen.
minus-squaretjhart85@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI mean, they’re cops, chances are very high that they suck at their jobs.
minus-squareRevonult@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoThey aren’t trying to hide. OSU has these guys out for every football game or large gathering.
minus-squarecosmicrookie@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoSometimes they need to hide, some times they need to be seen
