Real easy solution.
Have police marksmen on rooftops with scoped rifles and binoculars near the location.
When they see rioters moving towards the bricks, put a round into the ground at their feet.
The next round won’t be a warning shot.
Police in every major city should be on the lookout for this.
I would think it wouldn’t be too hard to track down who placed the order for these and who paid for them.
Saw the same in Boston in 1970.
Back in the 1960s and 1970s, it was reported that police knew a riot was to happen in a few weeks by the number of bricks, rocks and bottles that started showing up on rooftops.
Pallets of bricks go out the first week of summer construction. Oh my!
It’s a conspiracy, I tell ya.
There is a pallet in the yard across the street from me. Is my neighbor Antifa, or is he re-doing his patio? We should shoot him, just make sure. (He’s black, too!)

Not disputing the pics but most of those are Belgian blocks. 5 to 7 pounds. Most antifa types are not going to get much distance throwing one of these. And unlike common bricks, Belgian block is worth some money and these would have been scooped up by some guy for his driveway.
Probably purchased at local Home Depot’s with credit/debit cards making them easily traceble.
This is pretty simple to track - every store that sells bricks would have a record of a full pallet sale.
When I worked in the hardware business , big sales got a lot of attention.

In the case of #1, put a temporary halt on all projects and deny the contractors permission to leave the bricks.
In the case of #2, find the trucks that held the pallets and trace their license plates to the owners.

Hey, look, free building supplies being abandoned! Backs up truck....
It’s real easy to trace those bricks to whomever purchased them and who delivered them.
I’ve got to believe that trump has his Justice Dept already trashing them to the culprits.
Listening to the local news, there was a report that an officer was hospitalized because he was hit in the head with a brick: just FYI.
I just drove down 34th Street in NYC. They were boarding up the windows on Macys.
Something is going to happen there.
I see videos of things going on in Miami. It’ll be interesting to see how DeSantis will deal with this. A perfect opportunity to show the difference between states with GOP and RAT leadership. I don’t see DeSantis putting up with this for any length of time.
Reported about 1/2 hour ago on KMBC news in Kansas City;
A police spokesman said that they have found and removed piles of bricks that they believe were meant to be used later this evening by protesters Looters) in the Kansas City Plaza area. (Not stated...to break windows and loot.)
The Mayor (black) Quinton Lucas has been walking and talking
with protesters. A group of protesters (sure...perhaps..) have left the Kansas City J.C. Nichols fountain and are apparently walking to the downtown with the plan that they will block I-435 at the Broadway bridge. The police said that they would not allow this to happen.
(Note: The fountain was were Freepers and other rallied in 2000 to protest actions by Al Gore (Sore/Loserman) in NOT conceding the 2000 election to Geo. Bush.)
So far there has not been much violence here.
Barr is going after the money. Shut off the supply lines and the money, and this will die down quickly.
