Tesla protestors: Target the dealerships, not the drivers! [View all]

One of the doctors in my office drives a Tesla, and so does his wife. Both of them were targeted by vandals, who drove nails into their tires, leaving them both stranded at their respective workplaces.

This does not hurt Elon Musk, and only hurts innocent people who bought Teslas in good faith before Elon went off the deep end.

Stop hurting innocent people!
