thereidout Lucky for her, Ive been told those are the strongest types of people.

thereidout That’s a terrible place for anyone

thereidout She might have wanted to take that into consideration when she decided to break their drug laws..

thereidout I feel for her. However, travelers, regardless of sexuality orientation, to foreign countries need to comply with their sovereign laws. did she commit the offense?

thereidout Then why did she go.

thereidout Correct the spelling in the headline.

thereidout 🤣🤣🤣🤣that so not helping any an ya'll know it. Not in Amerika.

thereidout You take your chances working in a hostile country. Not siding with Russia, but Americans should not be there for any reason.

thereidout Did she break Russian law? If so well then?

thereidout Hard to keep track of acceptable names for the alphabet groups these days. Been banned for using tra.ny. She should have stop the weed vaping. Ignorant move.

thereidout ?

thereidout Don’t do the crime.

thereidout That’s right she a black so Homophobic Joy thinks all black people should be free to break every law. Call her a Queer is another Homophobic Comment from JoyAnnReid

thereidout Phony issue. Has nothing to do with her being 'queer' in Russia. Griner's been paid extremely well for seven straight years to play professional basketball in Russia which is very popular. Hate to break it to you, but that 'terrified queer' was paid better in Russia than US.

thereidout Who are these idiots leaving America to work in Russia or China and WHO CARES? Selling out to brutal Police States.

thereidout She broke the law in another country. She has to face the consequences.
