'We will NEVER be caught': Brazen eco-zealots who slashed 40 SUV tires in NYC vow they'll spring up across major US cities as 'autonomous groups' after wreaking havoc on Britain

Brazen eco-zealots Tyre Extinguishers are celebrating their expansion into America, after slashing the tires of 40 SUVs in New York City Thursday night and bragging that they'll 'never be caught.'

The movement, which originated in the United Kingdom, seeks to dissuade people from owning SUVs in urban areas, and switch instead to more environmentally-friendly vehicles.

Tyre extinguishers took credit for deflating the tires of 40 SUVs on Manhattan's Upper East Side Thursday.
I enjoyed the by-product of the 1960's "British Invasion" with the Beatles, Stones, and other acts coming here to spice up the music scene and culture.

The UK could keep these hooligans.

What is Mayor Adams going to do about this?

He'll probably do a press conference begging to meet with Boris Johnson to discuss this issue, and then have a bunch of photo-ops with the Prime Minister which he'll use in his campaigns to run for president in 2024.

Or maybe, instead of bulldozing all those illegal dirt bikes and 4-wheelers, he can send these guys into the areas where people predominantly drive them and have them slash the tires on those vehicles. That'll show them!!!

If they pull this stunt in the outer boroughs it won't go well for them, I hope.

They are morons. Now the drivers of those vehicles will need to buy new tyres which required fossil fuels to manufacture and transport.

At least the Sex Pistols made music that many liked and had a major influence on culture and future musical styles.

These kids are contributing absolutely nothing.

They are "deflating" tires, not "slashing" them. The headline is wrong. Deflated tires can be re-inflated, but slashed tires have to be replaced.

But I agree they are morons, picking on people whose struggles they know nothing about.
