Yeah, they were merely sunning themselves and sipping iced tea up there. Snipers. Lemme guess, it's another depending on the definition of sniper. How about we all abide by Daniel Webster's definitions when dealing with the government.
We did not fire indiscriminately from…uh…into the crowd.”
So does this mean they fired ‘deliberately’ into the crowd?
Look at the autopsy reports yourself. Only one wound in all of them was other than .223. Facts are facts. I don’t see anyone alleging the bikers had rifles.
There is a fundamental flaw in their statement alleging justification for the whole operation.
This wasn't a 'bike night', it was a CoC&I meeting.
The latter are known for being peaceful assemblies, as they address issues common to all motorcyclists, often issues with legislation or current statute, but also to coordinate run schedules to eliminate scheduling conflicts, and to note road construction/ongoing hazards.
By intentionally confusing the type of event, the attempt to justify the whole operation is skating on thin ice.

Go to:
And see picture of the snipers on the Don Carlos roof.
Because of the long lens on the camera there’s a perspective distortion that makes it seem they’re on the Twin Peaks roof, but they’re not.
So, the cops admit not following protocol by deploying support (snipers) in case things got ugly......
IBTG I wonder where TG retreated to...perhaps TG lawyered up as the wheels of civil justice begin to slowly start to move.
