Remember: it is your patriotic duty to vandalize Teslas.

When can we start vandalizing Tesla owners? 6 months? That should be fair right? If they bought a $100k + car, they should have the financial freedom to get rid of it by now, right? I'm done with the bumper stickers. That doesn't save you anymore.
