Climate goons deflate tires on 43 ‘gas guzzler’ SUVs in Boston, leave snarky notes

An international climate activist group has claimed responsibility for deflating tires on 43 SUVs in Boston’s tony Beacon Hill neighborhood — and leaving behind preachy notes warning vehicle owners: “Your gas guzzler kills.”

In a blog post, the group, which calls themselves the Tyre Extinguishers and claims to have 15,000 members worldwide, explained that Wednesday night’s stunt was their first foray into Boston, and that activists only targeted “large, luxury gas powered SUVs.”

The eco-warriors noted that they spared hybrid, electric and handicapped-marked vehicles.

“SUVs and 4x4s are a disaster for our health, our public safety and our climate. Bigger and bigger cars are dominating our towns and cities, and all so a privileged few can flaunt their wealth,” Tyre Extinguishers wrote on their website. “Because governments and politicians have failed to protect us from this danger, we must protect ourselves.”

The environmental campaigners said they chose to target SUV owners living in Beacon Hill because of the area’s high concentration of wealth.

I read yesterday that this was a bunch of limey goons. They need to be arrested and deported.

They do this because they can’t debate their beliefs.

Terrorists. Kill them.

Yeah, I’ve been to Boston. Maybe one or two genuine conservatives, but the rest likely agree with the delinquent’s philosophy. Even the owners of the SUVs (in conversation at the spa).

someone needs to leave a snarky hole in their heads.

[who knows what evil?]

IIRC; the last time the Brits got uppity in this country, the Americans shot them.

Around here, half of the “large, luxury gas powered SUVs” are at the projects. LOL

They’ll talk. Then find them, track them down, and beat the snot out of them.

Terrorists. Kill them.

This will end when a few of them are found floating face-down in Boston Harbor

Until then, enjoy the leftist social-engineering

Beacon Hill residents - suits them right. They’ll probably blame “Extreme MAGA Republicans.”

[marktwain]

eco-terrorists.

Bait them, catch them, and turn them.

Seems like a good use for detectives and the FBI, possibly CIA.

An international climate activist group has claimed responsibility.

Now they know where to look to return the favor.

If they really wanted to protect the environment they would commit suicide a have their bodies ground up for fertilizer.

Previous article from DailMail stated the tires had been slashed. Not simply deflated.

[Rinnwald]

I would guess making new tires has some toll on the environment.

Correct, I live in MA and on the news people were being interviewed and they were saying the tires were slashed not deflated.
