I haven't read the news on this particular story, but someone told me that the vape pods contained illegal drugs. Is that true?
yes, most all weed vapes contain hash oil. Maybe she will have a greater respect for the USA when she gets back here eventually.


What in this story makes you think she disrespects the US?

I dont think she disrespects the US other than she doesnt like the anthem being played but maybe she will realize that we have it pretty good here.

"I'm going to protest regardless," she said. "I'm not going to be out there for the national anthem. If the league continues to want to play it, that's fine. It will be all season long, I'll not be out there. I feel like more are going to probably do the same thing. I can only speak for myself."

I just read Russia wants to hold her for 10 years. Ridiculous. Have her pay a fine and allow her to leave with time served.

Is Russia trying to angle for a prisoner exchange or something? It's a shame BG is caught up in the middle of all this. If I'm an American there, I'm getting the hell out of Russia ASAP.

So, you think objective facts allow you to discern the world around you? That is old school, man.

Everything comes down to your subjective "truth" versus someone else's subjective "truth." I am talking about nonstop debate, disagreement, and confusion on even the most basic matters. That is the new way.

10 years seems harsh but different countries have different laws. I watched that show "Locked up Abroad" and have learned that it's best not take drugs of any kind into certain places. In Thailand they caught people with hash and give them life but i think that was for a kilo.

What Biden voter demographic is going to be mad that he let Griner stay in a Russian jail? Inflation is at a 40 year high. Most folks are more concerned with food and gas prices than they are that a WNBA personality is in a foreign prison.

And she's gay because God made her that way.

Is that consistent with the law in Russia? Whether we agree is irrelevant. What is the law in the country you are traveling? Unless US Consulate can get her out, she is subject to their laws?

Got a 200 Euro fine for riding scooter and cutting through Marisnplatz in Munich. I had no idea it was illegal. They did not care. Paid what would be considered exorbitant fine for cutting corner. What we considered reasonable was irrelevant.

No. You answered a question that was not asked. I did not ask why she was gay - which is the question you elected to answer. I asked you how you knew she was gay.

We know she is gay because of her words and actions. Same way we know her opinions on the USA.

I don't know what the law is in Russia for this. Hopefully the "up to 10 years" is worst case scenario.

I totally relate to the fact that one has to know the laws of the country you are in. Advice to anyone that wants it, don't take photographs in middle eastern airports.

Saudi was bad. I remember women from Aramco would talk and run around without masks on. As soon as they didn't want to talk, they would take a little black shawl out and put it over their head. If you didn't leave, next thing you knew 2 cops with M16s would be in your face.

Luckily, I didn't have any run-ins, but I had to go to the Dharan jail to get soldiers out to meet with a very unhappy 1st Sgt. Law is the law there, they did not care.

I'm reading she has been in jail for 3 weeks.

For some vape cartridges wth

Free Brittney!


Is that consistent with the law in Russia? Whether we agree is irrelevant. What is the law in the country you are traveling? Unless US Consulate can get her out, she is subject to their laws?

Got a 200 Euro fine for riding scooter and cutting through Marisnplatz in Munich. I had no idea it was illegal. They did not care. Paid what would be considered exorbitant fine for cutting corner. What we considered reasonable was irrelevant.

I don't know what the law is in Russia for this. Hopefully the "up to 10 years" is worst case scenario.

I totally relate to the fact that one has to know the laws of the country you are in. Advice to anyone that wants it, don't take photographs in middle eastern airports.
Dont get caught with hash in Williamson county either. There was a kid in 2014 that was caught with a batch of hash brownies there. He had the equivalent of 4 grams of hash oil which is not very much. The charges against him had him looking at 5year to life in prison. I dont think he had to serve the full 5 years but point is it wasnt that long ago that you could do serious time for hash in Texas.

Hmmmm, vaping is not at all the same thing as drug trafficking.

I haven't read the news on this particular story, but someone told me that the vape pods contained illegal drugs. Is that true?
yes, most all weed vapes contain hash oil. Maybe she will have a greater respect for the USA when she gets back here eventually.


What in this story makes you think she disrespects the US?

I dont think she disrespects the US other than she doesnt like the anthem being played but maybe she will realize that we have it pretty good here.

"I'm going to protest regardless," she said. "I'm not going to be out there for the national anthem. If the league continues to want to play it, that's fine. It will be all season long, I'll not be out there. I feel like more are going to probably do the same thing. I can only speak for myself."


Again, what makes you think she disrespects the U.S.?

Her words and actions? What makes you think she is gay?


Those words aren't disrespectful, nor were her actions. What else you got?

And she's gay because God made her that way.

Who gives a crap if she is gay? I just hope she can come home safely.


Ask the guy that brought it up.



You provided an answer to a question that wasn't asked.

You asked the question. "What makes you think she's gay?"

Until your question nobody had brought it up. Own it.

No. You answered a question that was not asked. I did not ask why she was gay - which is the question you elected to answer. I asked you how you knew she was gay.

We know she is gay because of her words and actions. Same way we know her opinions on the USA.

You lost, own it.


You asked the question but didn't like my answer?

And I should care why?

The 'Tom Brady of women's Basketball'? Ha!!!

You might as well call Viktor Axelsen the 'Tom Brady of international Badminton'. Just as many people watch that sport as the WNBA.

My bad, snowflake. If you only accept one answer maybe it's not really a question.
