    He is a journalist who did nothing wrong.

    You mean besides the rape where he hid in Ecuador until the statute of limitations ran out?

      Every political opponent of America is a rapist and their hard drive is filled with child porn when they get arrested

      There’s a pattern here…

      It must be the pedophilia that makes them expose America

      Well, this is not the accusation that the US is interested in at the moment. You could say much worse things about trump, and he is running for presidency. So there is that.

        Then that implies Trump did nothing wrong? It’s all a government conspiracy to attack Trump?

          No. The point is, Assange should not get persecuted for his actions as a journalist. You are saying he should because of rape allegations (why that matters in this case is your argument not mine). Yet, the president candidate of the same country was found guilty of rape and is not persecuted.
