If you are referring to the fight antifa and the proud boys got into it wasn't really a trap per say or entrapment. It was really one of maybe a dozen street battles they got into. Someone would schedule a free speech event. Antifa would show up to disrupt it. Proud boys would show up to stop antifa. When they got in the way antifa would attack them and they would fight back. A lot of what the proud boys did was acting as body guards for every day citizens that showed up unprepared for antifa violence.

This one particular fight antifa lost badly but it was in a city that supported antifa. I don't remember which one. Might have been DC or NY. The point is they cherry picked a video that shows a proud boy swinging first. In court they were going to leave totally out of any evidence that just 2 minutes earlier antifa ambushed them with a full on attack and outnumbered them 2 vs 1 etc. Yet the proud boys won the fight and the follow on fight in which a handful of antifa got injured. BECAUSE they got injured they whined and charges were pressed.

Some say the proud boys went too far, but one simple truth was left out in court that made all the difference. Antifa STARTED the fight. It was a total sham.

So if the proud boys were so violent, a menace to society, blah blah then wouldn't you want to make an example of them? Nope, they just asked for the leader to step down... why? Because they had a good chance of replacing the current leader with "their guy". Which put them in a perfect position to make the proud boys a honey trap.
