Free Speech, whether your agree with their Pro or Anti Vaccination stance, they have the right to talk about their views. Republicans can spew all they want. I agree they have the First Admendment rights to say whatever they want about Legitimate Rape all they want, even if that flies in the face of Science. Debate them. Cite sources. Do not attempt to SILENCE them because it goes against what you believe in. It goes the same for Anti Vaxers. They should not be silenced just because some people do not like what they are saying. What medical science says should not prohibit the First Admendment Rights.

If you say NO to this, then it will come back to bite you in the ass on other issues. Nieed to look at the bigger picture of First Amendment Rights.
