That is a very charitable portrait of the anti-vaccination movement. No, they aren't parents of vaccine-allergic children banding together "to cope with their problems". They are people spreading serious misinformation about vaccines, advocating that they are risky and best forgone, and causing real damage by doing so. I think silencing these people is wrong, but that doesn't change the fact that their speech is clearly making the world a worse place.
