The link to the police scanner audio can also be found in the GP story.
Begins at the 1:11 mark
https://files.catbox.moe/l94xxt.mp3

The areas being talked about on the police scanner where the bricks are:
63rd and 22nd
67th and 21st on the NW corner
Yeah I get ya. If only there were some reason for bricks to be at the corner of 63rd and 22nd.

I only found this building at 2198 63rd St, which is the corner of 63rd and 22nd. I can't imagine why they would need bricks there. Surely it's the dang liberals setting you up again!

There's no "whining and crying about the sources" it's people telling the sheep to use common sense. I forget if the red hatted crowd are backing the blue today or not, but don't you think the police would have issued a formal statement?

The issues I felt some commonality with the left on I don't openly discuss. Not even on an "anonymous" forum such as this. But those are issues I have laid completely aside now. I plant my flag and pitch my tent on the right side of the line. It's come time to make a stand and there is no way in good conscience I coul throw in with the left in any way shape or form.

There's nothing to sit on the fence with any longer. Yessir, comes a time in a man's life where he has to take a stand and commit with certainty. A line from a movie comes to mind, "those without swords can still die upon them." I'd rather go down with one in my hand on the side I feel has the proper view on things. It does seem as if it's coming to a fight sooner than later.

I honestly didn't think that the Rittenhouse trial would be the catalyst to bring everything to a head but it certainly is looking that way.

Are you saying that you believe the only thing Rosenbaum had done to threaten Rittenhouse was to throw a plastic bag at him?

The bricks are for "self-defense" only according to the lefties.

Are you saying that justifying using deadly force is NOT necessary in this trial?
I haven't been able to watch every second of the trial. If it was mentioned then perhaps he was responding to a question that had been asked, or, he was simply recounting a timeline of events. There's no reason to be fixated on a chunk of concrete, unless you're trying to use it as a trigger point.

I was a fence sitter half of my life. I always spoke the line "I'm not a republican or democrat, I just vote for the best candidate," and then never was motivated to vote. It was not until I started to notice blatant lies from the dems, and some of their outrageous comments, that I sat up and started to pay attention.

I first sat up and paid attention, after I saw the leader of the Democrats in the House, sitting in a school cafeteria on C-SPAN. He flat out lie that kids in that school would go hungry because the Republicans were cutting money for school lunches.

The repubs were in fact increasing the school lunch funding, but the dems countered with a proposal to double the repubs increase. Them dems created a false narrative that the repubs 3% increase was "a cut" because the dems proposed a 6% increase. and of course the lying media repeated the false narrative, to make it sound like the school lunches were CUT.

The next day the principle of that school was forced to go on TV and tell upset parents that everything Democrat leader said was untrue, that there school didn't even use federal funding to pay for school lunches. To this day, I see the same deceitful tactic used by dems, characterizing a repub increase as a "heartless, mean spirited cut" because the dems played the game of countering the repubs increase with their own larger increase, so they can call it "a cut."

Is this the corner where the bricks are seen? Or are the bricks on a different corner?

As far as that (already built) brick building, it seems the damage is wood damage. Shouldn't there be piles of lumber instead of bricks?

The second location has no brick building on the NW corner, it's a small wood house.

I'm not fixated on anything.

I haven't watched much of the trial at all. Based on the videos that I've seen - to include the FBI drone footage - the first shooting is the only one that is a questionable use of force, IMO.

I've said that same thing since the day any of the videos were released.

Have you explained in the master thread, since this thread is about bricks, what exactly it is that makes you think the first shooting is iffy as far as self defense?

I can't remember. IMO, being chased by an unarmed person is not necessarily sufficient justification for lethal use of force. I'm not intimately familiar with Wisconsin's self defense legislation, though. <shrug>
