  1. 2 mos? That's what Russian media says.
    Russian court says: Oh yeah? How 'bout 10 yrs!
    U don't mess with Russian laws.
    Here in the US, u break the law… in Russia, the law breaks u!

  2. No pitty for her should known better do not feel sorry for her . Should not get special treatment no one else would get special treatment why should she . Especially since time of conflict going on . Best to her . But the government should not step in always got make it racist
    Will

  3. I am a white man in Minnesota and I wondered why I had heard nothing so I searched, this is all I found, nobody is talking about her anywhere and I think I know why but you won't like it. You already know she's gay, black and more but she has fans and friends, nobody is protesting, none of the usual things you do, just you.
    I think everyone is protecting themselves because they kinda know she's a goner, they blithely talk about the possible sentence as though she'll get out some time but I don't think that's possible. She's not a criminal, they don't have a real court system, Putin will personally direct her treatment and he hates gays, blacks, and American women as does everyone in prison with her, it isn't America.
    It is hard to know if you are helping her or hurting her, if you publicize her, Putin may make her go to a microphone and denounce America, she won't do that without persuasion, he seems to not notice her now, he's busy but he's going to purge Russia of Russian dissidents like Stalin unless he's deposed so what chance does Brittney have?
    Her best chance is that Putin gets deposed, the next leader wants peace, and Brittney is a peace offering but that only works if Putin is protecting her in jail, we will see her again at a court hearing and maybe see how she is, but they might not want to show her and that would be bad. I will be watching closely and I hope we see a thumb's up.
    BTW, the other place talking about her was TMZ sports and you'll not be surprised that almost every comment said they hoped she rots in jail or something similar, it is so disheartening to see that when I believe she will die in Russia and her fans and friends are distancing their hearts so as not to get crushed. Friends are friends but fans are not even fairweather friends, fans will flip on you for changing teams, there are few who are personal fans.
    There are so many tragedies to be talked about, so much to be done, but one man can carry a torch for one helpless victim and I applaud you for being Brittney's hero, you can't do everything but you can do something and you did.
    Anyhoo, you are correct, she's being written off because she's gay, black, and outspoken but she's an innocent victim of a madman and an American citizen, she's a great person, there is no other explanation but I knew that, I'm white, they don't bother to hide it from me but my dad was called a n*gger-lover back in the day and they can call me worse, you're a man and I'm a man too and I have just this past week, quit my bowling team because the captain is a bigot and in good news, it looks like the team is firing the captain instead, LOL.
    Good luck!
