  1. I bet that B@@@# likes the US now. I say let it rot in that Russian prison. Lol

  2. IMHO Russia is so foolish to make a big stink over canibus as so much of the world is no longer offended by it. It just makes Russia out to be so backwards and overly nanny like regarding what folks can and cant do as adults…they totally lost my respect

  3. WAY TO GO GIRL, with everything that goes on you simply couldn't wait to smoke some hashish when your plane land on US soil? You should be forced to do time for stupidity alone!

  4. How about the US make a deal we give back their prisoner only if they keep her 🤣

  5. Leave his A$$ in Prison

  6. What @ the other US citizen that has been waiting longer for release for a similar offense ?

  7. She did this on purpose. No way someone is this stupid. She is working for Russia.

  8. How many other Americans are imprisoned for similar or lesser charges than Brittney Griner? Why are they ignored?

  9. What about the ones stranded in Afghanistan???? Is this only because is russia??

  10. Tell Russia we’re not interested.

  11. Leave her there, She doesn't have any respect for this country.

  12. If and when this she/he is swapped, they are going to kick her /hims ass.
    "For your stupid action, you just costed us a real important prisoner, so I hope you're happy".

  13. And that's why kids we don't do drugs and another country

  14. Nope! Keep her. She broke a country's law and should pay for it. We'll keep the gun runner that was giving the CIA a run for it's money.

  15. She turned her back and walked out during our anthem. She moved to Russia as she didn't like America that much…
    $120k a year wasn't enough for her here…
    Let her stay there…

  16. Don't you dare swap anyone for her…

  17. Bull! Let her get a taste of Socialism! Since She loves it so much! And hates America!
