The owners of those vehicles may not understand the meaning of the word gratitude.

Tires can be replaced. Engines, suspensions, and drive trains get expensive.

Slashed or deflated (i.e., let the air out)?

Black Tires Matter.

Just further proof that those in positions of power believe they are above the law. Slashing tires because they “might” be used in a crime? This is an example for the contempt of a citizen’s rights. If I were to slash a tire, I would go to jail, and rightly so. But because someone in authority does it, it is A.O.K?

When they pulled the black couple out of their car in Atlanta, one dressed in combat/swat stabbed one front tire, then the other, and then busted out the drivers window, to get to the driver.

Well you can cut the valve stem...and don’t damage the tire itself....Just cause the person who owns it a hardship.

Don’t know if they were using some kind of wire cutter on
the stem or was just punching a hole thru the sidewall.

Ironicly it's proof we actually have a major problem with the police. Unfortunately the rioters dilute this issue and muddy the waters making the true nature of the problem impossible to see.

The problem is we have a highly militarized police culture. This militarization has created a mindset that officers see every person as a threat rather than a citizen. At the same time we have too many laws.

This all started in the 70's with the advent of the SWAT team. SWAT teams planted the seed for the conflict we have today.
