I know, right? I mean, my first thought was "how in the hell is there even any kind of normal context for an image like this? It's gotta be shopped, right?"
Edit: on a more solid look, I'm willing to bet the gun is shopped in, and it's actually a microphone.
They claim that it was "a rather mundane photograph showing Biden conversing with participants at a town hall event". The gun is absent but his menacing expression, leaning in, and finger pointing was in the original.
What is this picture??

Snopes dates it back to 2012, says it was photoshopped. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/biden-woman-gun-photo/

Snopes is pedofascist propaganda.
