Assuming some group is able to afford depositing bricks all over the country at convenient places for rioters, shouldn't we also assume that another group might exist that is able to hire a few twitter accounts to post pictures of pallets of bricks?
Don't get me wrong, I have no idea if one or the other is right, but wouldn't the latter be cheaper and easier to do?

Also I have some suspicions about this one:

Obviously it might have been terribly interesting to see what is written on the packing slip (things like a recipient, shipping company or manufacturer or maybe a date proving it is from now etc.), I wonder why that good american citizen taking this photo didn't think of that. At least I am hopeful this was all reported to the police first, before taking it to twitter.

You're right to have your suspicions - read down thread?

Police have posted in thread to say 'nothing to see here' but the thread still rolls on with outrage at the conspiracy. Even Warren Buffett is implicated apparently...

Everyone just believes what is on Twitter. Don't trust, verify.

No, I haven't read any further, thanks for the info regarding the police statement, that indeed confirms it.
I normally don't waste too much time studying what social media has to say, I am happy when I can close that tab again.

I just wanted to point out that it is easy to post a (possibly age old) photo of a paletts of bricks compared to actually depositing one in time on the right place. And if it would be true, the police would be more than interested and either CNN or FOX would be covering ad nauseam. I was suggesting that this all is very unlikely from first view already.

It’s a bit sad how you many of you guys are all so thirsty for obvious propaganda

I am sorry, that I am sometimes not able to play out my irony in fullest since my english is just terribly weak, I apologize for that.
