People are fucking dumb, what else can you say?

Like that dumb basketball lady who brought weed into Russia, what the fuck did you think was going to happen lol

Brittney Griner, yeah it was dumb but that was more political. She probably been though there many times. They just chose to enforce it that time.

On the one hand, it's still super fucking stupid. We had to give up an arms dealer or something for that. On the other hand, I could totally picture Russia just arresting someone because they decided that they were wearing the wingy colored socks

I don't think she brought weed into Russia, think it was several vials of CBD oil.

Going into Russia at all is a stupid thing to do, going into Russia with literally any contraband at all is an insane thing to do.

I wouldn't attempt to go into Russia with a plastic knife just in case.

It was THC hash oil, but CBD is also illegal in Russia so that wouldn't really make a difference.
