- The pacifist who is less convenient,
- The adept of civil disobedience and sitting deliberately obstructing official ceremonies.

They can intervene at the beginning of a small undeclared demonstration, and support the French Republican Security Companies (CRS) or French Mobile Gendarmerie Squadrons (EGM) during larger demonstrations.
The most important being the one of Paris, the capital of France, and which depends on the Prefecture of Police of Paris.
These companies depend on the Direction de l'ordre public et de la circulation (DOPC) (in english : (Direction of Public Order and Traffic) and managed by the Sous-direction de l'ordre public de l'agglomération parisienne.They were created in 2003.
The members of the CS of Paris can be recognized during demonstrations thanks to the royal blue stripes on their helmets and the crest of the Préfecture of Police of Paris on the front of the helmet.
The DOPC has six security companies which supervise all types of demonstrations and are experienced in all techniques of maintaining order.
The coordination during demonstrations in the city of PARIS is managed by the DOPC via the three public order districts, which are competent for several districts.
This management is carried out from a specialized information and command room located at the police prefecture and manages all the forces intervening in the field (intervention companies of the Paris prefecture, mobile gendarmerie squadrons and Republican security companies
placed at the disposal of the Prefect of Police).
Outside of demonstrations, they intervene to support police units and secure locations as part of the VIGIPIRATE program.

The Minister of the Interior, Gérard COLLOMB, exposed, on June 08, 2018, at the Gendarmerie's St Astier Training Center, the law enforcement doctrine to be adopted during upcoming interventions:
