Patriot Irony

March 6, 2022 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] Remember when all of those athletes were protesting during the playing of the National Anthem?

Some refused to stand, some took a knee, some put their fists in the air, some turned their backs.

Still others refused to even come out of the locker room when the National Anthem played. The song offended them so much that they waited until it was over before coming out to the field or court or pitch.

These social justice warriors sure made it known that they had no intention of respecting or celebrating our American flag or our National Anthem or the freedoms those things represent.

We’re going to tell you about one particular professional athlete who was part of those protests. This athlete didn’t just stay in the locker room. Athlete gave interviews about how wrong and offensive it was to wave the flag or sing the National Anthem because America is an oppressor and Athlete is one of their victims because they didn’t really feel free. Because of that, Athlete finds displays of patriotism – like flags and songs – incredibly distasteful.

Good thing Athlete doesn’t know these people.

Anyway, Athlete traveled overseas to countries where they could feel more free and earn more money than in the United States. Given the chaos around the world with Covid and the horrible situation in Ukraine, you might find it hard to believe that anyone would go overseas at this time, but Athlete did.

Unfortunately, the trip did not go smoothly. Athlete broke the laws of a foreign country… and is in jail!

You know who our Athlete now wants to bail them out of jail? That horrible freedom-suppressing country, the United States of America!

Oh, the irony!

Strangely, the media is staying very quiet about Athlete’s past protests about America…

    The US should not interfere. Break rules pay the price in a place where you can’t pull the race card. Stay out of Ukraine confluct. Turn off propaganda on MSN. Sadly, too many people love a bandwagon. We should offer aid when we can but not at the expense of other important causes here at home.

    Love watching “Locked up Abroad” & “To Catch a Smuggler”. People hate America & God until they need help. Good luck getting Russia to negotiate.

    Ukraine is a hot bed of corruption and money laundering. I do not trust the media propaganda or anything Hillary Clinton & George Soros supports. Everyone suddenly has a conscious for the people of Ukraine while still ignoring all the human rights violations of China & every other war in the world. Seems convenient rather than sincere.

    Brittney Griner arrested in Russia. She may not be in dire straits as a prisoner. She may be seen as useful in Russia and fall in with Putin and say all the terrible things about USA he’d like her to say. Let them have her.

    Let’s be clear. The United States of America is the best country in the world – thanks to our freedom of speech. I don’t have to like what she said, but I will support her right to say it. And I will support US citizens who are being used as pawns in an international war. That’s who WE are, as US citizens. We don’t pick and choose who we agree with and who to help. We do what’s right.

    Brittney Griner, and yes, you are right, BG, the press hasn’t reported about her earlier abuse of America. I had wondered, to be honest, if something like this was in her past so thank you for making us aware of it.

    It’s INCREDIBLY disrespectful/vulgar to bring a stash of drugs into a foreign nation. She was willing to do the crime so she can do the time. I hope she likes her new home for the next 5-10 yrs.

    As for Ukraine, send them weapons, planes, $$$, but no troops.

      March 7, 2022 at 11:14 pm

      Say no to war in any capacity. Americans are struggling with high gas, homeless vets, crime, unprotected border, etc. so why should we send $$$ to Ukraine? They have been fighting with Russia for decades, not recently. I hate Europe. They always want to start world wars.

    Looks like she found her new home. The US is not perfect (that is for damn sure) and quite clearly has a way to go. If she felt that protesting was doing her good, by all means. However, I am not sure what she was thinking going into Russia with a vape pen and hash oil. It’s Russia! If she is wondering what oppressed is really like, well she is about to get educated real fast. The US has a full plate. A citizen who broke the law is not a concern. I bet they will get her out cause she is a POC.

      Mybellyistoofulltothink- I am from Europe. I live near the border with Ukrainians. I apologize for the grammar,but English is not my language. We don’t want a war here (in Europe),because our homes will be destroyed- not American. We want peace and to live in peace and let politicians resolve their disputes themselves.

    This is Brittney Griner who somehow thought it would be a good idea to smuggle cannabis into Russia.
    We should do nothing about this moron. You break a country’s laws, you get to sit in their jail. It wasn’t like she was on some humanitarian trip or (as they keep trying to say) that Russia kept her in jail as some sort of hostage.

    I think you have to draw a bright red line when you have an out and out invasion. And it will be bad.

    Brittney Griner/WNBA
    Let her squirm for a while, then get her out somehow because she’s an American and is allowed freedom of thought. Even if it is a stupid thought. The press probably isn’t mentioning her past political views because nobody heard of her until now.

    The US should supply Ukraine with as much ammo as possible, while continuing to squeeze Russia until it collapses.

    • mybellyistoofulltothink says

      March 7, 2022 at 11:20 pm

      You do realize that China and India don’t care about the Ukraine/Russia conflict and will happily buy up any extra Russian oil? Putin is not going to be squeezed any time soon. Look at Visa. They withdrew from Russia and now China’s UnionPay gets to pick up their business.

    Had to look this one up, American sports are not my thing, but this is Brittney Griner. Arrested in Russia for drug possession/dealing cause she had hash oil in her luggage. The offence is such a minor thing imho, just get her out of there, regardless of what she has said/done about the US in the past. She’s still a US citizen.

    • High Steppa says

      March 9, 2022 at 8:04 am

      The problem is, this is not a “minor thing” to the Russians. She broke the law in another country and has to pay the other country’s penalties. I think this one is out of our hands. There are other US citizens in Russian prisons. We haven’t had any luck in getting them out. Brittney Griner has played basketball in Russia since 2014. She knows the laws. She was incredibly stupid and now she has to pay the price.

    The US shouldn’t do anything. She broke the law of the country she was in and shouldn’t have gone to the airport w/drugs and expected no consequences. Pure entitlement.

    On the political front, she needs to learn what oppression truly means and honey, this ‘ain’t it. Karma is biting her hard.

    As far as Ukraine, the current admin should never have allowed it to progress to where it is. Now we need to help Ukraine but also avoid World War III. I hope and pray we…

    Britney Griner in Russia. No doubt she’s being used as a political pawn by Putin, but she knew the risks and ignored them. The fact she was so careless during a time of war is either willful ignorance or just plain ignorance.

    Brittney Griner/basketball – I was curious why she played in Russia; this fully explains. Was caught with CBD oil at airport. As much as I think she deserves this karma, Putin will punish her because of his hatred of the US – should we negotiate her release – no, but rather make as much noise as possible in hopes they don’t want the attention. Not the best timing with what’s happening in UKR and all the sanctions.

Such a dolt she thinks to take weed with her to Russia is a good idea. In fact, she was so free here that she just thought EVERY country was like us. Dolt.
