...and DU frowns on talking about them, as do the authorities.

That's why the world is full of specialists.

Personally I advocate NEVER telling another person you are planning on breaking ANY law, or ARE breaking any law. Even if it's boneheadedly obvious to everyone involved. This includes things like, if you're standing on someone's back porch smoking a joint, do not EVER say "gimme a hit", "pass the joint", or ANY OTHER words implying in any way that you are smoking pot. It's just a habit to develop. Or going to a civil disobedience training, going over everything that might happen and exactly what you're going to do when there, and never saying out loud ANY illegal portion of your plans.

And, of course, any reasonable progressive will be fighting any law defining mere property damage as "terrorism".
