"Social media users participating in protests over the death of George Floyd have reported large piles of bricks randomly appearing at rallying sites."

Lots of pictures of this out there on the internet.

I think this is mostly fake news. They had that story here too and
when they looked into it, the reality was the city was doing
maintenance on the pavers and the bricks were being stored there by
the contractor. This had been going on for months. The city (Ft Myers)
did move the bricks.

Perhaps. But there are enough credible reports that there certainly seems to be something to it.

I saw the same Facebook meme as you but I don't see a conspiracy in
every dumb thing the government does. Sometimes it is just the
bureaucracy in inaction.

It took me a second, but... what?!? What dumb thing did the gov do pallets of bricks?


The Department of Public works stored bricks on the sidewalk near the
project they were doing here. I can't say about anywhere else.

Besides, aren't you the king of conspiracies, Mr. No-Mask-Wearer? That's a gov conspiracy according to you, correct?

I never said masks were a conspiracy, just a knee jerk feel good
gesture. The simple fact that there is no standard about what a mask
is points that out. There is also no actual protocol about how they
get used.

Bull****. All kinds of standards right he

I've shown you this before, but you choose to disregard it as it doesn't fit
your agenda.


"Your cloth face covering may protect them. Their cloth face covering
may protect you."

Note the word "may".
We may have snow in Ft Myers but I am not buying a snow shovel.

Anything that starts right out with "may work" does not sound like a
standard in any scientific sense.
Of you showed up at any OSHA regulated work space with a bandanna on
your face, they would kick you out. (to avoid a fine) OSHA does have
standards about what constitutes a mask.



You are too binary in your thinking. Nobody I've heard claims a cloth
mask *prevents* the spread of the covid-19 virus. It *does* reduce the
chances however. The whole risk issue is based on statistics, not
absolute science like you are trying to make it out to be.

What statistics?
I haven't seen anything but contradictory and incomplete studies along
with a lot of unfounded opinion using words like "may" and "might".

"Mask mandatory" places are doing as bad or worse than places where
few people wear masks.

You accept the 60% infected as being the magic "herd immunity"
target, yet it also is based on a statistical analysis of the
"R-naught" factor.

Actually I think I was citing the 70% guess but we really don't know.
