“The movement have now deflated tyres on around 9,000 SUVs in cities across the world since March, striking continuously, and look set to surpass their goal of 10,000 SUVs deflated by Christmas,” the statement added.
The group has said its aim is “to make it impossible to own an SUV in the world’s urban areas”, condemning the vehicles as “unnecessary ‘luxury emissions’, flaunted by the wealthy, that are a climate disaster, cause air pollution and make our roads more dangerous”.
lol, lmao
We're talking about it right now -- can you give even a sentence or two on this point? I can't go and read a whole book immediately.
I just did.
I thought that was responding to something else, sorry. If that's the evidence for it generating a larger effect, I'm wondering why general deterrence seems to work with this and not work in so many other contexts.
Because having your car tires deflated leading to selecting a different vehicle is so entirely different than being thrown in jail for drug charges like you are running around this thread talking about.
It’s difficult for me to think of two things that are more different.
Fine, look at speeding tickets. How well do they keep people from speeding?
Why do you keep insisting on looking at different things. This thing has already been done and was effective, why would we disregard that and instead look at the migration habits of pigeons that have been given tickets for shoplifting corn at regional state fairs instead?
Idk what your real hang up is about this, but it’s getting weird.
Why am I searching for more tested comparisons for this hyper-specific and small scale action? Seriously?
You're intentionally missing a very simple point, so I'm done replying.
You’re intentionally comparing deflating a tire to being thrown in jail for drugs. So I should have been done 5 posts ago. Silly shit honestly.
Probably pretty well, considering the fact that I don't speed to avoid tickets, and if there were no chance of a ticket, I would speed all the time.
(Do you seriously not believe in incentives or enforcement of any kind lol?)
I do it =/= most people do it. Some people respond to incentives and enforcement, but the manner of enforcement for stuff like this usually doesn't work. Tons of people speed even if the possibility of a ticket causes you personally not to.
