Amanda Knox: America Asked the Wrong Questions About Brittney Griner (645 hits)


Amanda Knox: America Asked the Wrong Questions About Brittney Griner
Opinion by Amanda Knox •

Brittney Griner is finally home after ten months of captivity in Russia. I’d hoped this would be a moment for uncontroversial celebration. After all, the American basketball star, who had been convicted of absurd drug trafficking charges for possession of vape cartridges in her luggage, and sentenced to nearly ten years in prison, was clearly being used by Putin as a political pawn. In May, the U.S. State Department declared her wrongfully detained. And yet, the news of her release has led some to question whether she is worthy of freedom. It’s giving me flashbacks.

What question is the wrong question? Nobody I heard asked "whether she is worthy of freedom."

She is an American just like you, have you forgot that, Steve?

This is THE WRONG QUESTION "whether she is worthy of freedom."

That is like asking other Americans, Are you worthy of Freedom? Well, are you?

Nobody questioned "whether she is worthy of freedom." Lot's of people question whether she is more worthy than Paul Whelen. She was in Russian prison only 10 months, when Whelen has been in 4 years. We all KNOW, no question, it was her "race" and her "gender" and Biden's bigotry, that got her released first.

Are you aware that it boil down to just one American Brittney Griner to be traded or none, which decision would you have taken?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
That's what they say Ron, her or nobody. I don't believe them. They should have gotten Whelen or nobody, for the Merchant of Death.

I didn’t ask you that Steve, what I asked you was this:

“ Are you aware that it boil down to just one American Brittney Griner to be traded or none, which decision would you have taken? ”

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I SAID, I don't believe that Ron. I don't believe "it boil down to just one American Brittney Griner..." That's BULL****.

Steve Williams
I don't see why you don't believe it because Brittney Griner is finally home after ten months of captivity in Russia, that happened Steve, do you believe that?


Wednesday, December 14th 2022 at 2:18PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
THAT I believe Ron, depending what you mean by 'home'.

Wednesday, December 14th 2022 at 5:27PM
Steve Williams
Anywhere on U.S. soil, she chooses to be Steve, just like you. You do know what that means, don't you?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
It means Paul Whelen is not home Ron.

No Steve, that means that she is NOT in a Russin Jail cell. Amanda Knox is free once again to go where she wants.
