that poor britney griner, 9 fucking years in a work camp for a couple of vapes jesus christ.
I feel sorry for her, but as an expat, the #1 rule of traveling abroad is "Do not end up in jail." Weed ain't legal in most countries. I've traveled abroad with weed vapes, but only to a country I've been to multiple times, already, and knew the laws for. Plus, my friend had already flown in twice with the vapes, so I knew it was fine. She was playing roulette, and lost. I honestly can't feel a ton of sympathy just because she's a famous athlete.
Rule #2 is "Do not end up in hospital", which I learned pretty well in Ho Chi Minh. I watch 2 people die in a crowded ER, after I'd had my leg gashed open. When you're overseas, you generally want to stick to basic behavior, unless you know you're safe. Griner was kind of an idiot. I think that's fair to say. She was LiAngelo Ball in China levels of stupid.
