    It's been a while since I've done a video like this but I really felt the need to discuss this because of some of the things I've seen people say. It's important to stay informed about these things so I hope I was able to shed some light on the situation even though I tend to ramble.

    Russia has their own laws. No one can tell Russia what their laws should be. Stop holding Griner up as some hero.She broke Russian law...period.

      "Russia has its own laws." yes as every country has its own laws. "no one can tell Russia what its laws should be." Okay, I never attempted to do anything like that, but I will critique their laws as I find some of them to not match the crime committed here. "stop holding Griner up as some hero." at what point did I ever even imply that I was putting Griner on some kind of hero pedestal? I'm not sure where you got that from. she broke the law should not be the end all-be all of your argument. if you were caught J-walking in Canada and given 5 years in prison would you feel your punishment fit your crime? would you have the "well I broke the law attitude?" of course not because that's not an effective argument. i find your lack of empathy for Griner interesting because it's my thought that we would be happy that we were able to free an American from a hostile foreign territory after an unjust sentence but since you feel as though less than a gram of cannabis oil warrants 10 years in prison, maybe our sense of empathy are just too different.

    Your takes here are misguided. As a Veteran, this sickens me. I am ashamed of this country to prioritize Griner. This is an outrage.

      Not everyone has been brainwashed by the lying Cheeto. He's exercising his first amendment right.

      I would argue that you are misguided on this one slightly. I understand your status as a veteran but i feel you have missed some important points here. Griner was not prioritized, I made this clear in the video, Russia had no interest in trading Mr. Whelan for anyone at this time and the trade proposed by Russia was Griner for victor or nobody so we should be happy than an American life was prioritized here and that she will be coming home safely. The Biden administration has stated that they will continue to explore options to bring him home so your outrage is misplaced.

      @@geezdayday2901 I'm disappointed with your answer. You should stay apolitical. I watched you because of your BTS reaction videos. It may be time to unsubscribe from your partisan takes. Shame.
