The real question is does she still think she's better than Demarcus Cousins at basketball?
She didn't trash her country.randylahey wrote: ↑Fri Dec 23, 2022 1:09 pmI'm a lot nicer person than brittney griner. I've never trashed my home country just to beg for them to rescue me.

Let me guess. You didn't bother to find out why she is choosing to stand for the anthem and didn't know nor care why she AND A LOT OF OTHER WNBA PLAYERS chose not to in the past.randylahey wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 9:03 am LOL. Funny how quickly she got humbled and brought back down to reality
That you would choose to adopt that attitude and attempt to make a political point at the expense of another American who has faced racial, gender, and gender-preference discrimination, i.e., disadvantages and roadblocks, their entire life; who was then taken as a political hostage by an enemy power and held for nearly 10 months, comes as no surprise. Because, you're a traitor who supports a man who tried to violently overthrow our government and prevent the peaceful transfer of power because he's too much of a pussy to admit he lost, and when that didn't succeed, he said he wanted to "terminate" the constitution.randylahey wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 9:03 am LOL.

It's almost like the National Anthem means something different to everyone and when you have an experience that changes your life, it affects how you feel about certain things.randylahey wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 9:03 am LOL. Funny how quickly she got humbled and brought back down to reality
Shes standing because she got a dose of reality. She experienced some real oppression elsewhere. And realized America is actually one of the most fair and least racist places in this planetRainbowsandUnicorns wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 9:50 amLet me guess.

I say that being you're the guy who claimed she "trashed" on her home country. Which she didn't. Did she?

I'm not sure it was all that "quick." I mean...she was in a Russian prison for 10 months.randylahey wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 9:03 am LOL. Funny how quickly she got humbled and brought back down to reality

This is true. How many Americans are in jail here for simple possession charges? Hundreds of thousands? More?Back2Lawrence wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 12:59 pm Let's not forget that there are many people less 'visible' than Griner that remain imprisoned. We really aren't as great as we think.

No, we don't have hundreds of thousands locked up solely for "simple" marijuana possession charges.randylahey wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 7:09 pmThis is true.

And yet we trade the merchant of death to get griner back, while we lock up our own people for the same thing
