Most protests was people walking, being happy, singing and talking. What everyone is talking i that 10% shit happening.
Please, be aware that most of the time people are peaceful. That what everyone have to stick in their brain.

Anyone who remembers the George Floyd protests remembers that being the case then, too.
The NYPD funneled the peaceful protesters into one intersection and then attacked.

And French police is doing the same. They even have an official name for barricading. They trap a group of peaceful protestors into an alley, then send a provocateur dressed as a civilian to start violence. They use the violence as an excuse to detain and injure everyone trapped inside the barricade. When the battle breaks out, they use that to further repress the peaceful protestors.
It’s a worldwide established practice by all police forces.
