She can rot over there, and I am 100% ok with it. She is NOT an American...so F her.
She’s an unAmerican skank! Good riddance!She can rot over there, and I am 100% ok with it. She is NOT an American...so F her.
The democrats HERO gonna wish that she did not spurn America. The REAL Americans do not care that she is in a Russian jail. She is not one of us.
She will never spend 9 years. Russia is upping their payout for her release. And just like the Berghdahl swap....these weak assed libs will give up the farm, the ranch and all of the property for this little America hating witch. I would not make the swap. Well I would give them someone that had a small drug conviction here in return. But they are WEAK.Guys, I get all the vitriol based on her politics, and I also get taking weed into Russia is INCREDIBLY stupid....but 9 years?
And where she's headed is a really rough place.
I am not shedding a tear, but I'm also not celebrating anyone getting 9 years in a foreign prison for a vape pen.
You can damn well bet she was advised about what type of consequences are given when busted for what she had in her possession. Only an idiot would believe(that she wasn't warned/briefed) a country like Russia would allow her to bring in hash oil or whatever she was smoking. It sure as hell wasn't medical either.Because she would not stand for the national anthem, has called out the entire country as systemically racist, and other items.
Her peacefully protesting for Gay rights (I support gay marriage), fair policing (do not believe in DFTP but do believe that unionized cops get away, at times, literally, with murder, and disproportionately, at times, to black individuals), etc. have zero issue with and applaud. As you note, it is american.
As for this, she should been advised, by her agent NEVER to travel to Russia. Her being in jail for 9 years in a penal colony for a trace amount of marijuana is simply outrageous and obviously political. I never had any great desire to go to Russia, but certainly will never go to any country outside of Western Europe after the set of events over the past 3 years.
Is she a POS? No. I am sure she is beyond despondent.
What it is a mark of Irony. So much of the BLM, CRT, etc. is founded on Marxist principles. Communism is evil. We were collectively lulled to sleep on this, as the West had a moral and financial hegemony and, at least ostensibly, countries like China and Russia were opening up their economies. I hope that they see why the Center and Center-right view it as truly evil with Britney G. being case in point. They only care about the state, not about the rights and dignity of the individual.
The whole thing is pretty ludicrous. The penalty is insane. But, if i understand just how much they ESCHEW (pun intended) bubble gum in a place like Singapore, if going, I am not getting within 100 yards of a piece of Juicy Fruit.Guys, I get all the vitriol based on her politics, and I also get taking weed into Russia is INCREDIBLY stupid....but 9 years?

Right^^^the irony of its America-hating narrative is blaring.The whole thing is pretty ludicrous. The penalty is insane. But, if i understand just how much they ESCHEW (pun intended) bubble gum in a place like Singapore, if going, I am not getting within 100 yards of a piece of Juicy Fruit.
She played pro hoops in Russia for 5 seasons:
"In the 2014–15 and 2015–16 off-seasons, Griner played in Russia for UMMC Ekaterinburg with teammate Diana Taurasi, winning back-to-back championships.[57][58]
In August 2016, Griner re-signed with UMMC Ekaterinburg for the 2016–17 off-season.[59] In 2017, she re-signed once again with UMMC Ekaterinburg for the 2017–18 off-season,[60] and in 2018, she returned to UMMC Ekaterinburg for a fifth stint in the 2018–19 off-season."
So, she knew or should have known what was possible.
Buyer beware ...
Ingrates sometimes get humbled. This is it, for It.Griner, according to sources familiar with the prison she is now in, has chores such as sewing Russian flags, how ironic since she refused to stand for the American flag.

It's been playing basketball in Blitzkrieg for what, 5 years? It can't plead ignorance at that point. That's called bellegerance, thumbing the nose at foreign regulations it damned well knew the consequences it already was aware of. It's a harsh sentence, but poke the bear, suffer the consequences.I absolutely blame her for the position that she is in. I also cannot be happy about any American citizen being placed in a Russian gulag.

Publicity stunt. As as usual the Potato looks like a dumb phuck once again. Deal-Dash for dummies, a terrorist killer for a tranny.Brittney Griner released from Russian prison 10 months after arrest
Griner will return to the United States almost 10 months after being arrested in Russia.www.yahoo.com
Well Russia got the deal a lot of people claimed we wouldn't do. Biden is weak.

Was it a political stunt when Trump got the Ball kid released?Publicity stunt. As as usual the Potato looks like a dumb phuck once again. Deal-Dash for dummies, a terrorist killer for a tranny.
Paul Whelan was arrested during the trump administration
Paul Nicholas Whelan (born March 5, 1970) is a Canadian-born ex-United States Marine with U.S., British, and Irish citizenship.[2][3] He was arrested in Russia on December 28, 2018
And what exactly did trump do to free him?

WOW, this is coming from you! I have to respect this.This is probably why. Whelan is a total dips**t who got kicked out of the Marine Corp for trying to steal $10k in Iraq.
Whelan was either the stupidest guy on the planet who contracted to do the stupidest swap of information in the worst possible city in the world, or he was set up by the Russians in order to be used later in a swap like this (but then Griner came along and is a better 1 for 1 swap). For me, the latter scenario is slightly more likely than the first, but I've seen stupider things.
Also, Whelan's family was told yesterday that he wasn't coming out because there was no way the Russians were agreeing to a 2 for 1 swap on this and his family was supportive of the swap (but that's clearly under duress, if they made a stink, Biden/State would stop trying to get him out altogether). This is a MUCH bigger, and more important, political win for Putin than Biden at a time when Putin desperately needs a win at home (way more than this gives Biden here).
People REALLY need to stop with the "Whelan Marine" thing... they look really, really stupid. I think most Marines would choke Whelan, with his own hand.

Everybody was right about your reading comprehension.So you support Russia detaining Whelan and America leaving him there?
Semper Fi !!!!
Trump wasn't fool enough to trade that guy for him. This trade Biden did is so uneven its not even funny. It doesn't surprise me Biden was the fool to do it though.
Once again you beat me to it! haha
I really don't care for Griner but for the people whining about Whelan, he was arrested doing Trump presidency. So don't critize Biden if you can't criticize Trump.
You agree but you also don't agree with releasing BG. I am just shocked that you called out your "boys", indirectly ill add but you did.Everybody was right about your reading comprehension.
The man who is spending billions on a war against Russia, the man who is hurting Russia economy, the man who is hurting Putin's money is scared of Russia? make that make sense!lol... So whether someone should be a priority to get out depends on who was POTUS when they were locked up? Nuttiest crap I ever heard. It was a joke anyone like Whelan or Griner would be traded for that guy though. Biden did this just to play to his lefty base and he is so weak he let Russia get away with not giving up Wlelan which still would have been a trade in Russia's favor big time.
