misdemeanor battery
If found guilty or pleads no contest I'm guessing a $50 fine and an order to stay at least 500-1,000 feet from any of the A's and no probation. Misdemeanors rarely if ever bring on big deal sentences.

LE should look just as hard at them as they do the protesters. Neither side has clean hands in their responses.
Edited to add: I thought it would behoove us to hear from the protesters themselves what their motivation is for being there instead of speculating why they are there.
It doesn't matter why they were there. You don't take the law into your own hands. That was wrong.
