A radical environmental group raised a few eyebrows on Twitter after encouraging people to let the tires out of SUVs in an apparent bid to combat climate change.

The group, Adbusters, tweeted step-by-step instructions for the provocation on Wednesday, calling it a "gentle escalation" or ramping up the urgency about climate change.

"Wedge gravel in the tire valves, leaflet the SUV to let them know the tires are flat and why it was done, and walk away. It’s that simple," the group tweeted. "If we organize, we can hit enough SUVs in particular neighborhoods to spark reporting and spread the metameme."

“A radical environmental group raised a few eyebrows on Twitter after encouraging people to let the tires out of SUVs in an apparent bid to combat climate change.”

To those folks flattening tires: Make sure your will is up to date before you start because the a lot of people are in dire straits because of the cost of living and the difficulty of just getting to work and won’t tolerate that BS.

Tweeted from their Iphones...which are produced in one of the most polluted countries in the world, China. Makes sense.

I think I’ll invest in the guard dog training industry’s equipment publicly traded stocks. A good going over by a brace of Boerboel’s should soften up the terrorists.

Georgia has a castle law. If I catch you attacking the air in my tires I can shoot you. Just saying.

Yes, they walked. Because that’s where they live. In their mother’s basement.

That will cause even more environmental damage as the SUV owner pulls out his or her tire inflator, turns on the engine, plugs the inflator into the dash and lets it idle for anther 15 minutes to fill up the tires.

This group is still up on Twitter, even though they’re advocating criminal action.

encouraging people to let the tires out of SUVs

I'm assuming they meant, "encouraging people to let the air out of tires of SUVs", which sounds like a bigger crime than walking through the U.S. Capitol carrying an American flag to me.

The best way to combat vandalism is to employ the three "S's". (and I don't mean sh*t, shower and shave)

Twitter will trend it, rather than banning the ecoterrorists for life.

They don’t want you to join. All of this “tough crappola” is not about winning converts. They want you to comply and take a knee. They want to dominate and kill.

I have a metal expandable ASP baton I carry with me. I see someone deflating my tires? They get a busted arm.
