In some cases, violence has escalated to bullets being fired at Tesla showrooms — an alarming development. These acts have led Tesla investors and leaders to call for increased security and coordination with law enforcement to protect employees and assets. Calls to action emphasize the need for urgent measures to prevent further harm and restore order.
