Should U.S. Swap ‘Merchant of Death’ for Brittney Griner?

[zeppelin128]

Good deflection.

The better question is why did Biden trade such a high profile criminal that poses a real danger for only 1 American?

Does he really pose a threat now? I mean it has been almost 20 years. And you think they are going to let him go on about whatever? Nope, they are going to put two in the back of his head while he's facing a ditch.

Can’t imagine the outrage if Joe traded a white man instead of black woman.

 

[JOEY’S ALL VOL !!!]

Whelan is a disgraced former marine court martialed for theft. Hardly fits your narrative.

Not one thing you just said here makes his statement any less true.

As anyone who has seen my posts know, I'm a Dem, but this totally pisses me off. This guy is responsible one way or another for thousands of deaths not to mention how hard it was for the US to get their hands on him. It costs millions. And we trade him for a female BB player who was stupid enough to carry drugs through a foreign country's airport (and one that is an adversary to boot).

We weakened our gene pool letting this idiot come back.

Let’s hope he doesn’t, but the fact that he has declared he views the US as his enemy and worked to get weapons in the hands of people who will kill Americans, that is a huge risk to take. I doubt he’s going to go retire and live a peaceful life.

Holy crap, you said something we agree on.

I wouldn't compare Candace Owens to either of those clowns on the left. Clearly Candace is a lightening rod. She used to be a democrat. She grew up around democrats in her family. She learned to break the chains of the democrat party - the lies, the harm it does not just for the black community but to America. Today you still lose friends being a black conservative. It takes bravery to be a black conservative. Most or all are well spoken and thoughtful. It doesn't take guts to be a democrat. Brainwashed, conditioned...decade after decade of high crime, bad schools, a system that promotes fatherless homes, and promotes blaming others instead of empowering. Yes, the democrat party sucks azz. I know these feelings all too well.

So before you compare Candace to whites, males, etc consider that Candace is in a category that is the most loyal democrat voter block.

it doesn't take bravery to have any political affiliation in America. Every fool on the street does it and blasts it over Twitter without any real consequences. And having people disagree with you on Twitter isn't a real consequence. Only a truly privileged nation could think any "bravery" is required. In some countries you can actually be killed for your political activism. Here, you might get someone say something mean to you. Big frigging whoop.

This guy was caught via sting when he offered to sell SAMs to FARC for them to shoot down USA planes/helicopters. He hates the USA and is a bona fide terrorist.

 

[mrorange211]

And I would suggest nothing you do is brave. Your comparisons are terrible. Thought I'd let you know.

Thanks. You know a lot about me from a few posts on a message board.

You voted for this so you shouldn't be pissed.

Yes, he poses a threat. Who do you think is going to put a bullet in his head? Putin will parade him around Russia like a trophy.

Did anyone really care about Paul Whelan until
All of this gained headlines? I mean the guy has been there 4 years and I’ve never heard 1 person mention his name. The fake outrage is hilarious…we freed 5000 Taliban prisoners under the previous administration and more people are upset over Viktor Bout being sent back to Russia after being held here for 14 years.

She carried less than 1 gram of an oil is banned in Russia but was prescribed for her here.

Guess we should’ve left the dude we swapped for 4 years to see if anyone cared.

Lol. “Prescribed”

 

[OL SMOKEY]

She carried less than 1 gram of an oil is banned in Russia but was prescribed for her here.

And broke a Russian law in the process.

Same as we would parade around returned person, but we've got racism, misogony, and bigotry lumped with our returnee.

Were we supposed to keep those Taliban prisoners indefinitely and aren't POWs supposed to be released at the end of hostilities?

Bad comparison on your part.

 

[Sin City Vol]

Lol. “Prescribed”

This is only an issue for the idiotic right because she took a knee. Paul Whelan gets a bad conduct discharge from the Marines and people make him out to be some dear hero. This guy stole other service members social security numbers and was filing false reimbursements. He literally stole about $10k from other Marines. Then wrote a ton of bad checks, made false statements..was arrested in Russia with $80k in cash on him. A real Patriot this guy is. I honestly could care less about Griner or Whelan but the fake outrage is ridiculous

Lol. Don’t worry I’m sure the dude coming home will get a “medal of freedom” or some stupid s*** from the morons in Washington.

Sure justify it..I mean what’s good for one party isn’t for the other.

She broke the law in Russia.

Now if you want to say the Russian law is BS I'll completely agree with you. Was she arrested and used as a pawn, no doubt. Was she a dumbass for having the oil, without question. If she wasn't a celebrity would we have made this trade? No freeking way.

I haven’t said anything about Paul Whelan but this was and idiotic decision by the morons in charge. If he is a criminal then it still would’ve been a better trade for him so he could face his charges here.

That's what is clouding your judgement. If she were a straight white woman who played ping-pong for a living it would have been a bad trade.
