How do we know that from this clip? I would assume snipers being in a ready to fire position is standard procedure at events like this, no?

it doesn't look like they had to change their aim before firing back

Could definitely be motivated behavior but at a couple hundred feet there's not much adjustment needed for a much different trajectory down field. We'll need more info and hopefully angles to put together what this agent was doing.

After the kneeling sniper startles or goes off scope, when he goes back to aim his rifle does seem to move a little to the left, but idk if that's bc he was aiming or panicking.
