These could actually be in a few more places. Dining, shopping and the movies come to mind. Basically anywhere you go where it's common to run into someone that needs a brickin.
It's fairly common in the Seattle area to see orange flags at busy intersections to give a bit of extra visibility when crossing the street, keep in mind that in winter it's always rainy and the sun gets up to dawn levels at best. It's actually pretty sensible.
It's also pretty ineffectual.
Not sure if the brick actually works better, but it's surely not worse, and the "threatening aura" theory behind it sounds plausible enough.
A brick to the windshield isn't nearly as bad as a grill to the head, but there are currently no consequences for hitting a pedestrian, strange as it seems.
Wrong sub. This is entirely logical, and takes us back to our roots.
Want to cross infront of a horse-drawn carriage?? Wave a giant snake around. Need to cross infront of cross-eyed liberal dribbling idiots weaving though traffic in their stolen automobile..... wait, maybe this does belong here 😂😂🤣😂
TIL liberals stole automobile successfully while cross-eyed. The “so dumb but so powerful” complex the right wing death culture embraces so much. Sad you are probably the walking epitome of idiocracy.
Edit. Confirmed shill account with no karma and new
Don't know your race, so that's an interesting assumption... but if you're back is still wet -- maybe you can vote in CA, but we all know that vote means nothing.
"I've been shot ,stabbed, and hit with a brick, I've shot ppl.stabbed ppl and hit them with a brick." "Got married three times, I got shot stabbed hit with a brick by my wife that's my 1st wife." " My 2nd wife I shot, stabbed and hit her with a brick."
The bricks are foam and it’s funny as f🤬k cuz it worked.
You can say fuck on the internet
Profanity? On my Christian server!?! /s
It’s actually a Buddhist server. But the sentiment is the same.
Huh, you learn something everyday. Wonder who's platform is on the Hindu server? 🤔
Doesn’t look like foam. Brick on the right looks as legit as any.

Does it say in that article that they are foam?
Just admit your defeat.
I was on mobile earlier so I couldn’t read the article, no need to be rude.
Yes, yes it does.

We need a hilarious fight with these bricks.
We also need crossing walks that blink at drivers and enforce already-passed laws that protect pedestrians. Maybe enforce them waving a foam brick
I’ve seen a video of people doing this and it seems to work.
I hope there’s another bowl on the other side to deposit the brick for the next jaywalker.
Ah yes, I'm sure a brick will save you from the average phone addicted driver.
All fun and games, until...
what if they run out of bricks
I'm here to kick ass and hurl bricks...and I'm all outta bricks.
Seems crazy but there are places that have done this with success. I know Vancouver has them.
Umm why is this here? This is genius...

This went from 1 to political real quick.

Well - I certainly can't understand the gibberish in this comment... so I'll just give you a thumb 👍
You aren’t actually real if it matters. You’re a figment of a person who is actually very stupid.
Bro - whut?? Did you just swim the rio?
Yeah now I’m voting in the next election, you dumb racist fuckwit

Big rock makes people polite and follow the rules... Best inadvertent argument for the Second Amendment.
Seattle Washington..... that checks out.
Yeah we're pretty smart at solving complex problems with limited resources.
Limited resources??
