They are busy fighting in Ukraine.BLM needs to go burn moscow down.
Not ranking on, or attacking you, just a difference of opinion...........I don't care for her, or her anti American antics, but she is a political pawn.
Of course, there are other Americans imprisoned there, but they are the wrong color and wrong sexual persuasion.
I really don't give a shit about her, but it is fucked up.

Russia has the right to enforce their laws just as much as we do. Its orinic as he'll that POTUS is complaining about her in jail, considering how many people VPOTUS put away for the same exact thing.
Her….……..ARE YOU SURE?People, especially "entitled people" Don't seem to understand (since the laws in the US don't apply to them, anyway), when you are not in America, YOU ARE NOT IN AMERICA!
Fuck her and her arrogant self. I hope she DOES spend 9 years there.
I'm not saying that she didn't break the law, but the length of her sentence screams to me "political theatre".Not ranking on, or attacking you, just a difference of opinion...........
This was a very simple, straightforward situation. She took conscious actions that were in violation of Russia's existing drug laws. She got busted for it, went to trial, was convicted and sentenced.
I have no idea whether or not she knew she was breaking the law, but if it were you or me in her position, do you think we'd be given a pass because "we didn't know" ? Seems pretty apparent that the answer was and is "no".
Maybe she did know, but was stupid/arrogant enough to think she could get away with it due to her celebrity status. In that case, I REALLY have no sympathy for her. She would have had to have seriously mis-read the playing field.
If you look past all the whiney liberals catterwolling about this, it sure looks to me like justice was served.
Besides, how dumb do you have to be to go to a country like Russia and get caught up in the drug trade ? All the while knowing that your celebrity status places you under greater scrutiny and the possibility of being busted for something and being used as a political pawn ? Situational Awareness was not just lacking, it was nowhere to be found.
Besides, she'll do somewhere between 6 months and 2 years and will be part of a future "prisoner/spy swap". She ain't gonna be there for 9 years. Life isn't going to be fun for her in the near term, but, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. No sympathy/no refunds. And, I suspect that when she comes back to the good 'ole US of A, she'll be trashing it just like did before she left.
Sounds like we’re about 98 or 99% on the same page.I'm not saying that she didn't break the law, but the length of her sentence screams to me "political theatre".
If she had done this in Singapore or Malaysia, she'd likely be facing the death penalty, but they do that shit for everybody.
I don't feel sorry for her. She likely knew the rules "but a precsription"...bullshit.
I got a real laugh when she said something about not advising her of her rights, or some such bullshit. What rights, bitch? It's fucking Russia. You have the right to do what they fucking tell you. Maybe she can volunteer for the front to shave some time off.
She’s a man.
And his asshole may be the size of some of the craters in Ukraine !Not ranking on, or attacking you, just a difference of opinion...........

How do you say” bend over” in Russian?On the bright side this gives her the opportunity to learn Russian![]()
Irrelevant. That issue gets resolved when the Ukraine war gets resolved. The Ukraine War will not last 9 years.
This has been proven false.View attachment 7983791
Absolutely! Women usually aren't 6-9 and play basketball with their shirts off. But, we are living in Biden's clown world....
So women are 6'9 and do play skins basketball?This has been proven false.
The goal was to get Bin Laden. After that we were mainly trying to fix the mess we made attacking Iraq to find imaginary WMDs.How many thought Iraq & Afghanistan would last as long as they did?
Lobbied Congresspersons are writing blank checks monthly, if not weekly.
We're looking at world record gravytrains, while store shelves go empty.
So your saying you wouldn’t fuck her?She’s a man.
Exactly. Fuck her.And, I suspect that when she comes back to the good 'ole US of A, she'll be trashing it just like did before she left.

Brittney Griner Is Headed to a Truly Horrific Place - NewsBreak
Overcrowding, grueling labor and physical and sexual abuse are all common in these modern versions of Soviet-era Gulags.share.newsbreak.com
The media makes this sound way worse than it is. I would give my left nut to be locked in that facility. Think about it, free room and board, 3-meals per day and sex from countless females, that do nothing but workout all day long. I guarantee that Russia has ZERO Fat/Karen lookin women behind the walls.... Imagine a facility full of Ludmilla Vobet Drago's!
