Australian Vaccination Skeptics Network compares vaccines to rape



A controversial anti-vaccination group has likened vaccines that prevent disease to rape, drawing condemnation even from some its own supporters.

The Australian Vaccination Skeptics Network posted a black and white image of a woman with a man forcibly holding his hand over the woman's mouth on its Facebook page on Thursday afternoon.

The poster claims that vaccinations are "forced penetration" and states that people should have a choice over what goes into their own bodies.

(Trigger alert for those who are triggered by stupidity in others.)

Apparently the Facebook page content is down or gone, because they finally realized they were morons.
