I think vandalism is generally bad, but at least it's far far less bad than harming people.

Politically I doubt that vandalism is a good way to stop self driving cars. Waymo can afford to replace damaged parts, and they could also smear their opponents as criminals, even if it's a minority of those concerned. This is the exact same playbook that those opposed to civil rights used, smearing protests as "riots". Playing directly into that hand is not a wise choice, IMHO.
