Ok, it's official. The United States has lost its damn mind

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Someone needs to get to the bottom of who supplied the pallets of bricks.

It shouldn't be hard to track down the sale and delivery, but will leo investigate, or do they already know and are covering it up.
Is that confirmed and shown to not just be locally coincidental?
Pallets of bricks were set at protest sites in several cities at the same time.

A) antifa
B) asshole rightwingers out to make the left look bad

Your choice
Not really Antifa's style, but fellow travelers are possible.

If true, there are other options besides those 2:

Police provocateurs
Commies
Greedy looters planning ahead
Black radicals
Others?
A right wing nuthob who owns a construction supply house doing his part for fascism and general mayhem. Likely a multimillionaire from TX

:lol: Well, I certainly would enjoy taking one of those Hellcats for a spin. Those things are a riot by themselves.

Sometimes big answers come from small places.

Given that the truth about who ordered the bricks, and had them staged in several cities at protest points and well away from construction sites, would be easy for leo to track down, I can't help but assume that there is a reason for not investigating this.

What could the reason be other than, it doesn't fit the narrative that the violence is being caused by the protesters.

This has the potential to be a big story whichever way it goes.

Your suggestions,
"Police provocateurs
Commies
Greedy looters planning ahead
Black radicals"

are all good first choices, but they become less and less likely as time goes on and it becomes more and more apparent that no one is tracking down these deliveries of pallets of bricks.

This is an easy one:
an investigation and exposure of the protesters for planning violence would sway public opinion aways from the protesters

a non answer also speaks volumes about why the police wouldn't want to find out who staged the bricks

Bricks are not an expensive commodity. There is a place in Hendersonville on Spartanburg Highway, or used to be, where anyone with a lift or a flatbed truck with a hoist could drive in there and take as many loads of bundled bricks as they wanted. Because of this, I don't see anything nefarious about the origin of the bricks; they were likely stolen in a scenario like I describe above. Finding out who did it is not very likely unless the place the bricks came from had security cameras at their storage site. Even given that the theft was reported, unless there is video of the theft, it's highly unlikely the theft will be solved. This leaves my initial theory of a wingnut cult member who owns such a supply source as the person behind it.....he has the bricks, the ability to move them, and he doesn't have to steal them.

Upon further consideration, I think the "official" date of the lost damn mind would have been 11/8/2016. Everything since then has been due to refusal of treatment and the resultant deteriorating condition.

So at least three cities with brick piles have been de-bunked as preparations for rioting. Short version, there are videos with the bricks there well before Floyd was killed. Dunno how many places supposedly had pre-placed bricks, but my guess is there are reasons for the others, too.

That is the individual stealing the car instead of acting on his freedom of speech in a protest line.
Another individual did say something inappropriate about a mother while the vehicle was leaving the dealership.

Cat reminds me of the quote about wine and sewage. If you pour a glass of wine into a barrel of sewage, you still have a barrel of sewage. And if you have a barrel of wine and pour in a glass of sewage, you also have a barrel of sewage.

And a proud member of the cult of lies and ignorance squawks his squawk. Hilarious. Here's what, punchy.....your virus statement illustrates your abject lunacy.....trump blamed Obama for lack of testing for a virus that didn't exist when Obama was president. But since you're in the cult of lies and ignorance, this blows right by you. Yeah, unarmed blacks were killed while Obama was president. What's your point? That this is what is supposed to happen? The difference is that Obama tried to soothe the hatred but trump stokes it. His slogan should be "Fear and hate; make it great" and you'd fall right into line. Job loss due to the pandemic has been more than it otherwise would have if your cult leader hadn't called it a Democrat hoax and ignored the warnings he got about it for two months. The job losses Obama had to deal with were a result of the financial and economic mess the GOP handed him. I guess you think Obama should have lied, whined, and pouted about it like trump does on a daily basis. Stick with the cult, punchy. Stay stupid. It suits you. Oh, and Jesus Christ has left the building; the "left" is not trying nearly as hard as trump is to seal his fate. And, no, what YOU have is "his mouth" and you love it don't you?

Good to see you Johnny. tRump is headed to your state tomorrow. I heard that he needs a white state where he can discuss racial diversity.

Here's something for you to do to confirm your suspicions.....if they publish the name and age of that "individual" you should google his name. If you know someone's name age and location, you can see, for free, if they are registered to vote or not. But be careful; you may find that the "individual" is registered as a GOP voter, which would make you a victim once again.....of your own stupidity. So check it out. Like trumpy would say "what do you have to lose?" But really, you won't lose either way.....either the guy will be a Democrat, which makes you a victim of his actions, or he will be a Republican, in which case you will still be a victim as described above. It's a win win, or in your case, a whine whine.
