Aside from black-clad Antifa-like domestic terrorists with backpacks and hammers curiously showing up in cities across America, there’s another odd consistency that centers around bricks.
With the protests over the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police devolving into political mayhem, where rioting and looting are the order of the day, a strange phenomenon of random piles of bricks appearing is talked about online.
But it doesn’t stop there.
The Kansas City Police Department took to Twitter to talk about “stashed of bricks.”
“We have learned of & discovered stashes of bricks and rocks in & around the Plaza and Westport to be used during a riot,” KCPD tweeted. If you see anything like this, you can text 911 and let us know so we can remove them. This keeps everyone safe and allows your voice to continue to be heard.”

Hell, even MC Hammer is talking about “free bricks,” warning followers that they are being set up.
“It seems that free bricks are conveniently turning up at most of the protest 🤔💭 Don’t take the bait. It’s a SETUP !!!!” he tweeted.

The question is, who would be setting them up?
The protests over the death of George Floyd have been hijacked by those pushing a political agenda and racial justice taking a backseat to revolution, what we’re seeing is a reflection of the organization strength of the institutional left.
However, even though MC Hammer won’t go quite that far, the race-baiting left will have you believe that white supremacists are randomly dropping pallets of bricks in a clever plot to bait black people into becoming violent.

On the other hand, those on the right suspect it’s the protest organizers strategically placing the bricks to add teeth to their dissention.
Frisco, TX. There have been groups organizing “protests” in Frisco for 5PM this evening. All of a sudden this shows up on the path of the “protest”. You wanna tell me this is not planned and organized now? #2A #protests2020 #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/v1GfogMTpF

Regardless of who may be responsible, the bricks keep showing up.

It all may be just an inconvenient coincidence, as construction of some sort is almost always going on in bustling cities.
At the same time, everyone has a theory. Some even think the cops are behind it!
In the end, social media users are convinced that “they” are behind it, whoever “they” may be.
Here’s a sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
Well said someone must know who paid for those

Second time I’ve seen someone post a pic like this. And in both posts there is clearly visible scaffolding in the background.

The kkkops and white nationalists are trying to get black people to take the bait so they can further demonise and oppress them.

Exactly they are trying to switch the narrative…

Let’s be clear. These “riots” are mostly white folks out here. A lot of them are plants by agencies. All of this is in efforts to keep ‘92 or ‘65 from happening.

I wouldn’t be surprised if those were put there afterwards by police. Nothing good has come of this. You started a war against a populace much larger than you. I recommend you stand down as we are the people you are supposed to protect and serve.
