Terrified-looking WNBA star Brittney Griner is led into Russian courtroom in cuffs

[PrchJrkr]

I’m still trying to wrap my brain around the unlawfully detained thing. She gets caught smuggling drugs into the country, plead guilty to it, and yet Russia is at fault?

I couldn't care less about what she does to her body wherever it is legal, but to blatantly break another country's laws and then belly ache about being punished, sorry beotch. You should have known better.

She's not being a very good ambassador for the US. Perhaps we should all get vocal in our support for another country's sovereignty and their right to enforce their laws as they see fit. God knows our current administration abomination doesn't have any regard for our laws.

She's kneeling for real now...

You folks, you better not hope karma or even God is real, because this is a whole new level of cruelty, even for you.

She was caught with something that is now legal in half of our states, and in the others it’s a misdemeanor. You really don’t know how bad you look here…or maybe you do, I’ve never met a group of folks who hate black women more than you, this tracks.

Really? Russia is the 51st state?

"She was caught with something that is now legal in half of our states, and in the others it’s a misdemeanor. " Do you have any idea how stupid that statement makes you look? This is Russia stupid.

This doesn’t excuse your cruelty.

I was giving the evidence that most states don’t even consider this a crime, much less one worthy of 10 years.

Do you think it should be worth 10 years in prison? Or are you just giddily to see an American jailed in Russia?

Her plea was that she was guilty of having a "hashish oil" vape cartridge in her luggage, accidentally forgotten about. Not CBD oil derived from hemp, but hashish oil which is derived from cannabis. She would be in violation of our laws if she was bringing it into the US too.

The root of it is you are cheering that an American is going to be imprisoned for 10 years, you are happy about it, by a known enemy of our country.

I’m not cheering for it, and if that is true what you’re saying, that hashish oil is worthy of being sent to prison for, I disagree. Many states do not imprison persons for having hashish oil.

Only those that allow recreational cannabis use, which is what 18 or so. And I am not cheering about this, but a seasoned world traveler should know better.

Look, I’m not denying she messed up, and it’s obvious to me that Russia will use whatever means they have to lock her up.

I’m here saying that Russia is not our ally, they are about to lock up an American for 10 years, just ignoring this news would be a better stance than what this forum decided to do.

Most of the messages previous to mine were in support of Russia or a knock on her. Surprisingly Hijinx was one of the few that said it was too strong of an imprisonment.

I will buy that the majority are a knock on her, but I'm not seeing this support for Russia that you are speaking of. Does Vindman brief you on how to interpret what was said?

 

[LightRoasted]

For your coinsideation ...

I’m here saying that Russia is not our ally,

At one time they were a friend. But give it some time, and they will be again.

 

[PrchJrkr]

"RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA!"

Precious little protected class can't be bothered with following the rules. Anyone who isn't completely self-absorbed and spoiled knows that you don't travel with contraband into another country. For God's sake, she should get another 5 years for stupidity.

At least none of us are starring in our own personal episode of Locked Up Abroad.

Yo, this place is unserious.

You know I get the hilarity that you all get about this, like it’s not you, some black woman, who cares.

But it’s the encroachment, we all are at risk of these people. You can never let them take any of us.
You may not think a black woman is an American, but she is. And we should be appalled that Russia had put her in jail.

Russia warned U.S. about Boston Marathon bomb suspect Tsarnaev: report

Russian authorities warned the FBI in 2011 about Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of two Chechen brothers accused of carrying out last year's Boston Marathon bombings, but U.S. authorities missed chances to detain him, NBC News reported on Tuesday.

Sadly the inept pos ignored it.
