Why should Griner get any special treatment from our state department?


Because all countries negotiate this shite all the time.

It's usually a bargaining chip.

Marc Fogel is the one that deserves sympathy and outrage - his situation is heartbreaking, considering that he had an actual medical excuse



I get that he has a medical issue but that is not a excuse in Russia. Someone with his experience in Russia should have known better, this is on him 100%. You want to go there then follow their rules.

I agree with this 100%. Of course weed has tremendous medical benefits and is becoming more and more socially accepted/legal everyday here in the US, which is why the US is the greatest country on earth, bc popular opinion generally rules. This is not so true in countries like Russia. Thats like trying to smuggle drugs into the middle east. He should have definitely known better.

She doesn’t understand shite, nor has or will she learn anything. It’s still someone else’s fault. She can find a split to lick in prison.

Had Griner respected the laws of the sovereign Russian Peoples she wouldn't be facing prison. The lesson here? Don't traffic in cannabis (or drugs) in Russia.

Hey Brittney, learn to like Borscht. If you're lucky enough to get some.

I wish weed was legal but to say you didn’t know it was illegal in another country is about as stupid statement as you can make. As for the bitch that got busted, I hope she rots over there

Perhaps Russia’s harsh drug law sentence and lack of catering to her status as a gay, black, celebrity athlete will give her a whole new appreciation of the rights and freedoms afforded to her in America where she claims she was so oppressed.
My bet is she doubles down and slams the USA for not getting her arse out right away.
