A group of far-left, radical climate activists called The Tyre Extinguishers said they “disarmed” 40 SUVs in New York City’s Upper East Side on Tuesday by releasing the air out of the tires of the vehicles.
The group announced they struck New York City for the first time.
BIG NEWS: TYRE EXTINGUISHERS STRIKE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEW YORK CITY!
40 SUVs disarmed in the Upper East Side, the first of many.
We have an American English leaflet ('tire' rather than 'tyre') on our website so USA folks, you can join in! https://t.co/cmqm5IOM5F pic.twitter.com/FLHZn2Ckem

The group, which formed in the UK, is now allegedly operating in the US, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Sweden and New Zealand.
They said “expect other cities in the USA to follow” after their strike on New York City.

The group’s website states they target SUVs because:
The Tyre Extinguishers target SUVs because:
•SUVs are a climate disaster
• SUVs cause air pollution
• SUVs are dangerous
• SUVs are unnecessaryThe Tyre Extinguishers want to see bans on SUVs in urban areas, pollution levies to tax SUVs out of existence, and massive investment in free, comprehensive public transport. But until politicians make this a reality, Tyre Extinguishers action will continue.
Infowars noted:
One thing worth noting is the group also targets hybrids and electric cars, saying they’re “fair game” because, “We cannot electrify our way out of the climate crisis.”
“There are not enough rare earth metals to replace everyone’s car and the mining of these metals causes suffering. Plus, the danger to other road users still stands, as does the air pollution,” the group states.
Another interesting part of the group’s operation is that they don’t promote slashing or stabbing the tires.
Instead, the group teaches members how to screw off the cap of the tire valve, place a pebble or bean inside, and screw the cap back on until the air is hissing and exiting the tire.
This ridiculous scheme will likely be supported by the Democrat party, which is hellbent on forcefully pushing the American people into eliminating gas vehicles and overall personal transportation.
