I’m probably a bit bemused by the outrage, as I have sufficient air line to run out to the street. But having had multiple cars affected by petty acts over the years, from loosening of wheel bolts to deliberate creasing of panels and setting fire to headlining, flat tyres aren’t really something that overly bothers me.

Slashed tyres, that would - it represents an economic loss, like the malicious damage events cited above or the mongrels who steal plants from my front garden.

Most people couldn't change a tyre and it's going to be an RACV/NRMA call out to rectify.

Though it's Toorak, very affluent area of Melbourne they couldn't give a **** about what it costs to fix, it's a mild inconvenience at best, just take the Lamborghini Huracan to the office today.

All this does is turn people away from environmentalists.

If they did it to my, relatively efficient, SUV daily I'd be forced to take my 600HP V8 SS for the day and I'd ensure to keep it a gear lower just to thank them, you know by using extra fossil fuel... Changing a tyre is easy, but stuff em... lol

But yeah, all this does is make people LESS likely to support them... Much like these jobless halfwits who perch themselved on roads/etc to hold everyone up.. All they are doing is making people less likely to support them...

I love this bit under how to deflate a tire.

"Drop a small bean (we like green lentils, but you can experiment with couscous, bits of gravel, etc)"

Lentils and couscous tells you all you need to know about the type of people doing this
