"A confidential source told the FBI that Stager had claimed he did not know the man was a police officer and thought he was striking a member of the far-left Antifa movement."

A. I guess it's just okay to beat someone you disagree with, right?

B. Also, why would anti-fascist, want to instate a wannabe fascist?
