The anger over George Floyd's death has led to protests across the country and the situation is worsening by the day. While some are protesting peacefully, others have resorted to violence, looting and vandalism to rebel against the law enforcement after Floyd was killed in custody when a Minneapolis police officer pinned him down with his knee over his neck last week.
A state of emergency has been declared in several states and the National Guard has stepped in to deal with the intensifying unrest. However, a new video clip has started circulating on social media suggesting that law enforcement might be inciting violence by leaving bricks on the street for protestors to use and damage property.
Boston Police Truck Filled With Bricks
A video clip, shared by a Twitter user named Alexander Parker, shows two Boston Police officers unloading bricks from their truck inside what appears to be an alleyway as they carefully place them on a brick pallet on the right-side of the vehicle. The truck's bed is filled to the brim with hundreds of bricks.
The person recording the video points out that the bricks could be for undercover police officers or agent provocateurs that are getting involved in the protests to encourage violence so that police have an "excuse to beat the s**t out of them."
The video has garnered more than 350,000 views and racked up hundreds of comments with many claiming the police are "planting" bricks at protest sites and streets, which they claim is a tactic used to turn peaceful protests violent and justify the use of excessive force on rioters.

That is exactly my first thought, they got these bricks from some of the “protestors” and are dropping them off at the station.
Either undercover cops or fake video. Unknown
"It’s in the back of their police station. They gathered the bricks from the streets and have put them in a secure location. Nothing more nothing less."
I highly doubt it
We all should know by now that you can’t fart without being on some camera footage. I can’t believe someone could unload that many bricks at a site and not be recorded. Just trace the licence or face recognition and see who paid for the load of bricks. To make multiple stacks of bricks and nobody notices anything is unrealistic.
No, the cops provoke this stuff unilaterally to delegitimization nonviolent protesters. They also plant ppl in crowds to start violence.
Why would an undercover police vehicle have an obvious number on the roof? That makes no sense.
Being a Texan and a deer hunter, I know why you put out piles of corn. It’s so you can shoot the deer that come to eat it.
So would I be surprised if there were camouflaged police snipers set up in concealment a couple hundred yards away, to be ready to “harvest” rioters who pick up bricks? Nope. Is that inciting violence? Not any more than putting out corn is inciting deer to do what comes naturally, that is, to eat stuff.
Very well said, and from my research I see similar.
Assuming they're cops. Not dressed as cops. Or bad cops.
1. to get close to the antifa that are doing this
2. to remove bricks they found on the streets
That is all I can think of off the top of my head.
My initial suspicion has been confirmed.
Very, very, very interesting. Thanks for the post; ping.
This is bull****,they are not bricks.

Like I said, you bend over if you want. Some little fascist wannabe will be happy to groom you.

Their twitter mentions gathering up loose bricks from a sidewalk at a certain location in Boston. If you look at the street view of that area, there are indeed brick sidewalks there.
This!
bkm
It looks like police are collecting evidence.
I’m going to assume you’ve never had a pallet of bricks delivered to your home... A fork lift is required to load those things.... and few police cars are equipped to unload that stuff - no less have the shocks in their cars to carry that load.
This is a bridge too far...
I’m sorry. I’m ashamed of these police.
Taking a knee means you agree with the lawless.
They should be ashamed of themselves.
