Should U.S. Swap ‘Merchant of Death’ for Brittney Griner?

[Orangeburst]

Oh look it’s the resident trans/gay water carrier. You are the one bringing up race and sex. Everyone else is saying she was dumb to break the law. Just like a liberal, has to make everything about race and sex.

They hide behind their identity politics. Actually they expect special treatment for their identity..being a radical.

I haven't hung out in this thread, but I can take a guess how it is going down. "She deserved it." She is black and a lesbian, "hope the worst happens to her." VN

I thought “she” was a dude.

 

[85SugarVol]

I'm totally surprised this is what you're hung up on. You don't think everybody here on VN supports big change? I mean, let's just talk taxing and spending...you don't think 90% of us want big change there? That's one issue. How about ending the war on drugs. 40% of us, maybe? How about ending Obamacare and getting federal government out of health care? 70% of us? How about big changes with foreign policy? Regulation? Etc.

You and her disagree on what's best for America and neither of you hate it.

All of us can desire change along any of those axes. And there are mechanisms in place to bring it about.

Slavery & Suffrage were corrected that way.

Wanting lower taxes is not a desire to “reimagine” the entire American economic system.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Taxes make us all slaves to the state.

I highly doubt that was what he was talking about, but you are correct.

 

[EasternVol]

Because we should take care of our own. Even a black lesbian, contrary to the hatred of this forum.

Why just her and not the thousands of others in foreign pokeys?

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

So when was she officially sentenced? I want to keep up with how many days she has been marked safe from hearing the Star Spangled Banner.

I’d say she might have reconsidered some of her positions?

Yeah well... too ****ing bad.

If the Russians were smart, they'd put a speaker in her cell and play it 24/7.

I hope he thoroughly checks his luggage for vape cartridges.

Well, at least she won't have to be offended by the National Anthem for awhile.

Never heard of him.

Maybe she’ll learn to love this country if she is able to make it out alive. Still hate it for her. Some people are just dumb

Dude is not going anywhere soon. We already have an excess supply of mentally ill.

Brittney Griner's nine-year prison sentence in Russia upheld

Keep her.

 

[Lawrence Wright]

She kneeled for the national anthem, so she should serve a life sentence in Russia.

 

[ButchPlz]

He broke the law deliberately in Russia, so he should serve time for the crime in Russia. 9 years isn't a "life sentence" anyway.

Not sure why he should get preferential treatment for playing in a boring, fanless sports league.

 

[hog88]

She kneeled for the national anthem, so she should serve a life sentence in Russia.

While I fully believe the charge and her sentence is complete BS she is responsible for being where she is and she's not there because she kneeled during the anthem.

 

[Sandman 423]

She kneeled for the national anthem, so she should serve a life sentence in Russia.

The US should lobby for her release as hard as they do for every other American in her situation.

This is also why you should never visit countries that we are not on good terms with that have draconian laws.
