No matter how much you shame individuals for property damage as retribution for institutional violence, there will always be people out there who you don't reach or simply disagree with you who will continue reacting to that institutional violence with more property damage. A much better use of our pearl clutching fists and scolding voices would be to direct them toward the institution that decided to revoke those important services in the first place and demand they be reinstated. No bike lane and more deaths and scolding the politically frustrated to no end vs having a bike lane and less deaths and bending the institution back toward public good...
If you actually do care about property damage, that seems to me the more rational and rewarding effort to make.
