Indeed they are, in the US as few as 8 individuals may be responsible for nearly all of the vandalism. I have a feeling the scope stateside maybe hyped up 100x worse than it actually is because of 1 prominent case. (Aka vehicle vandalism in general dwarfs the Tesla vandalism cases by a large factor)
Searching I'm only aware of these Tesla vandal locations:
Tesla vandals face up to 20 years in prison, says attorney general
With vandalism in the following locations
- Salem, OR
- Colorado (two?)
- Loveland, TX
- North Charleston, SC
- ? 1x Cali minor
Are there more?
Most are non-voters and under 25 with a couple outliers, from my point of view a handful of angry cranks are taking advantage of crowds of non-violent 80 year old women holding signs by roadsides as a cover/excuse to be anarchists.
Just like the umbrella men who followed protests to light fires and break windows these jokers need extreme prejudice, some are underage so not sure how that goes.
Doubtful,
