Professional Left's Professional Pimp Julian Assange Comes Out as Far Right Extremist
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023485714
REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)
ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
The term "professional left" is a RW device, meant to demean liberals.
JURY RESULTS
A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Mon Aug 19, 2013, 02:05 AM, and voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT ALONE.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Did I stumble into a Tea Party?
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Not sure about origin of "professional left". It means what OP wants it to mean, seems to me.
I like Assange, but detractors should be permitted to detract... however unconvincingly.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: It certainly is a RW term, which is exactly why the poster here is using it in an ironic manner.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: Thank you, alerter. This is pretty noxious.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: That website linked to is a homophobic rag.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Thank you.

No--it's non-violence because abortion is violent to the fetus--see what Ron Paul says about it:
