These are the NGO lawyers and funders of the protesters. You will see them in every video if you pay attention. They are there to get names and "observe" so they can sue the police and just get them released immediately. These people are worse than the paid protesters.

No to the bolded. They’re legal observers to ensure the police don’t use harmful or heavy handed tactics in subduing protesters. They also act as legal facilitators for arrested protesters. 

Yes, these are lawyers who are aligned with the values of the protesters but they also serve a valid purpose. As irritating, misguided and disruptive protesters can be sometimes, that doesn’t give license to the police to intentionally harm or deny them their rights. 

On a side note, I’m shocked at the obvious lack of police training when it comes to subduing a perp. In the video above, I see at least four cops struggling to maintain control of a person who is half their size. Not one cop goes for the feet to bring them down. They just dance around pulling and pushing on each other. It’s really pathetic.

Most won't be but there will be a few important ones that know what is going on.

The cops aren't allowed to do most of the things to easily take someone down as it may hurt them if they fight it. There are several ways a smaller cop can drop a bigger person but they require throwing them or taking their knees out. It's simple and effective but could cause damage to knees, shoulders, arms, etc. It's why it takes 2-3 cops to handcuff someone that is resisting.
