Interfering with motor vehicles

[JTQ]

The lesson here is carry a 12 volt tyre pump😁

Plus, with my metal valve stems, mechanically tighten the caps? Whilst not a guarantee, it ought to foil delicate fingers and their probable expensive nail pampering. Will not stop them carrying a mole grip etc, but makes defending carrying such, a difficult argument to win if caught.

I can't follow any logic underpinning the "proof" so positively claimed as the "only motivation" in that conclusion?

I suspect that their genuinely held concerns are environmental, though not necessarily thought through.
Here more, it is just an easy target for expressing their view, and provoking a reaction.

I believe there is unlikely to be a hint of jealousy, let alone it being the "only motivation", in owing something that they don't need, want and see as unduly polluting; why would there be?

An SUV pollutes more if it is older technology, and only reflects the amount of use it sees; parked up it pollutes less than the protester does.
In some cases they are probably right in the belief that the ownership and use of a SUV, and with it the "extra" pollution is unnecessary in being predominantly a vanity choice, better handled by something less polluting.

Did you miss the smiley at the end of my post as it was said in jest or tongue in cheek?

PS. BTW the above is a light hearted humourous comment.

By the way.

Reading an article that these climate change zealots are planning to block oil refineries and petrol stations....

Think they need to reassess their objectives. Next month we will not be able to afford fuel at the rate of the price increase so they will be wasting their time....

If they do go ahead I wonder if the general public will have the same patience as the last demo's.... ?

GAS ....

Apparently after deflating the tyres they are sticking some sort of gunge into the valve to hinder reinflation. In effect this means that you have to call out the break down services who use a vehicle emitting CO2. They may then need to convey teh vehicle to a place to remove the tyres, clean or replace the valves so even more CO2 emitted. Total unthinking morons!

A main moron with surname "Vine" highlighted these idiots on his show giving them the publicity they craved and they now brag about it on their website. I have the link, but I am not posting it.

Radio Two has been turned off as soon as Mr Vine goes on air in this household for months.
The activities of these narrow minded, misguided eco-warriors calling themselves 'Tyre Extinguishers' are clearly anti-social and there are laws to deal with such behaviour.

If there are any Police about. They're all in vans arresting a few squatters entrenched in an oligarchs house.

Doubt it. Probably helping them move in.

If 'plod' isn't interested? ----- Then they need identifying (dole office?) So they can be dealt with!

Plod are probably interested, but catching the culprits who operate at night is just about impossible. As a car owner if you try and apprehend one of the culprits you will probably get arrested. Sad state of affairs!
