Residents of a small Boston community have become the latest victims of a maddening eco-mob dubbed the “Tyre Blushers.”
The climate fanatics wreaked havoc on both sides of the Atlantic by deliberately deflating the tires of family cars before leaving a condescending note telling victims their cars are “unnecessary and pure vanity.”
The group strikes early in the morning before their targets are awake and exclusively deflates SUVs, which they say “create more air pollution” and “kill more people.”
And their latest strike hit the sleepy community of Beacon Hill, where residents woke up to find a patronizing letter saying that despite having their tires slashed, “You’ll have no trouble getting by without your gas guzzler, too.” on foot, by bicycle or by public transport. ‘
The group’s return to the US comes after the fanatics previously boasted that they will “never get caught” after hitting 40 SUVs in New York City in July.

The environmental agitators hit Boston for the first time, but in September the group celebrated its most destructive night yet after enraging motorists in nine different countries.
In addition to marking their usual territory in the UK, innocent motorists in France, Germany, the Czech Republic and Norway were also found with slashed tires overnight.
In Boston, the mob targeted 43 SUVs and continued their activism in the name of what they claim is a climate emergency.
Motorists discovered letters on their windshields with the caption: “Caution – Your Gas Guzzler Kills.”
After telling their targets, “It’s not you, it’s your car,” the group says the reason for cutting the tires is that larger vehicles are “a disaster for our climate.”
“We’re taking matters into our own hands because our governments and politicians don’t want us to,” the letter adds, with SUVs apparently the main problem because, in part, “psychological research shows that SUV drivers take more risks on the road.” .
While the group claimed not to target electric or hybrid vehicles and to avoid vehicles with handicap signs, many argue that the act could have catastrophic consequences, including for those in a medical emergency.

In a blog post following the overnight vandalism in Boston, the Tire Extinguishers said they specifically chose the Beacon Hill neighborhood because it is “one of the wealthiest neighborhoods” in the area.
The group said the wealthy community was targeted because “the climate crisis is a matter of environmental justice and the solutions to the crisis must prioritize marginalized and poor demographics and reduce emissions primarily from the world’s wealthy.”
“It is no exaggeration to say that the wealthiest individuals in the world are causing the present and future deaths of the less fortunate and less developed nations and people.”
The group added that they “have taken this action to render the large vehicles that emit greenhouse gases inoperable, directly preventing the emissions from the vehicles from entering our atmosphere, further contributing to climate change and air pollution.”
No arrests have been made following the incident, according to the Boston heraldbut a Boston police officer did visit a number of victims after reports of vandalism.
“I came out around 6:30am to take my dog to medical treatment in Angell and I was surprised to see my tire was flat,” said one resident NBC Boston.
‘I know someone else in the area. He’s a firefighter and he couldn’t get to the station and that’s frustrating,” added another.
“There are plenty of people here who work at the hospital and couldn’t get to work on time.”
Since its inception in March 2020, the group has claimed to have deflated more than 10,000 SUV tires.
When the group hit New York last year, an anonymous representative of the vandals told DailyMail.com, “We will strike in major cities across America when autonomous groups are formed to take action.”

According to the group’s website, it is a leaderless organization that aims to “make SUV ownership impossible” while offering advice on “How to deflate a tire.”
The group’s leaderless nature was also highlighted by the group following their vandalism in New York.
“That’s the beauty of this movement – it has no leader,” the zealots claimed.
“Nobody gives orders or controls. It only takes one person to print our flyer and buy some lentils. How do we plan to implement it? It’s very simple and anyone can do it. That’s why we never get caught.’
