Oh yes, quite a drug smuggler with that vape. Such a danger to russian society. No way she could have been given such a stiff sentence simply for being a national of the country they are in a proxy war with. No, Russia is well known for being fair and rational in justice and war. And thank you, non-american, for looking out..
Prejudice against what - junkies? Drug smugglers? or people that claimed to hate the USA, then begged it for help when faced with a cold dose of reality? And at the same time made your country look even more weak and pathetic?
Are you being deliberately obtuse or do you honestly believe a successful professional athlete is a junkie? Or that a vape with no intent to distribute is smuggling, or that not wanting the national anthem played means you hate your country? I'm gauging your mental maturity here.
Anyone that can't travel to another country without needing to smuggle their drugs through customs so they can get their hit - is by definition a junkie in my book.
You get it dude, this is exactly what is going to happen.
Any definition that is "by my book" is the opposite of a definition. Its a prejudice. Clearly you have no idea how thc affects people. Because her forgetting it was in her bag is FAR more likely than "needing a hit". Its not heroin dude.
What on earth are you on about? She was found with less than 0.7 grams of cannabis oil. You know cannabis oil that is legal in 47 states in America and is prescribed by doctors around the world for medical reasons. Using cannabis oil does not make you a Junkie or indeed a druggie as you keep claiming.
You know whats more illegal in other countries? Espionage. But you think the spy is more deserving of freedom?
That's no defence, the drug smuggling hag was caught fair and square, convicted in a court of law and brought your country, her team mates and herself into disrepute. She is now a forever convicted drug smuggler. Mabye now she can turn her life around and thank god that Russia let her go and people helped her to come home without fininshing her sentence. Now hopefully she can be forgotten by the masses as she isn't a good example to set for young people, she's quite the opposite in fact.
The stuff that's legal in USA is illegal elsewhere - you follow the laws of the country you are in and if you don't you should expect to be dealt with and face justice. Guns are legal in USA, however if I was to have one in my country I'd be looking at 5 years in prison. Go figure.....
I've not said anything of the sort - so don't try and put words into my mouth, stick to factual posts - not some made up stuff you just thought up in your head,
So you're being deliberately obtuse. Its prejudice and political bias that drives your opinions. Theres no point in even arguing with someone that doesn't value the truth.
So you totally missed my point didn't you. So let me say it again she had something that is used as a medicine. Using medicine does not make you a junkie or a druggy as you keep falsely claiming.
The only truth was that this woman was caught fair and square at customs in Russia,trying to bring drugs into the country, got caught, was tried and convicted and sent to prison for her crime. There's nothing prejudice about stating the facts.
The prejudice from you is you felt some need to point out that she was both black and a lesbian when neither has anything at all to do with the supposed actual crime.
Then I hope you have the integrity to stand by your convictions and ask the courts for the maximum prison sentence the next time you accidently walk out a store with a candy bar, or have car accident, or any number of things that happen every day that typically get a slap on the wrist. Wouldnt want you to be hypocrite.
Exactly not a single person on this site can say they have never accidentally or unknowingly broke a law at some point in their life.
