The BAD Influence

I heard a strange clanking noise driving home from our last trip to Moab. Upon inspection I found 2 studs are gone and the remaining 3 lug nuts were almost off.
I made it into Discount Tire to get new lug nuts and had them pull up the history on the Jeep, as they were the last ones to touch the tires, for rotation. It's been over 3000 miles, so they claim had they not tightened the nuts properly, there's no way it would have lasted 3000 miles.
This is what they told me: They're getting reports of environmental groups targeting off road vehicles, by loosening their lug nuts.
Is this a thing, has anyone heard of or experienced this?
