I crossed the border into Canada at Vancouver. One of questions asked, carrying CBD?
I said, yes, it was for my sciatica and I had planned on doing a lot of walking. I got taken aside and the five pills confiscated. They said they would send me a receipt. I said, don't bother, their value was maybe US$5.00 (CA$7.50). They said that the occurance will not go on my record.
They photo copied my NEXUS card. The amount of paper work for this confiscation must be horrendous. I think they just chucked the stuff and forgot the incidence.
YPMV
They want something from us and they are playing hardball. I think this is very detrimental mentally n emotionally to this person, and wondering if will continue to play after gets released.
9 yrs for the weight of 4 paperclips worth drugs is payback, nothing to do with a real sentence over crime. Russia just showing it’s true colors.
She broke the law in Russia no matter the amount. She was stupid and is paying the consequences for her crime. Compare to Fogel she got off easy. Can’t do the time don’t do the crime.
Best wakeup call she could have gotten, away from all of the twisted influencers that got her "turned out" in the first place. I'll bet if she does serve out her entire 9 year prison sentence in Russia, when she gets back she'll no longer need to be on any type of controlled substances and maybe even prefer caulk, in which she would have been that way from the start hadn't she been subjected to years of indoctrination by the wacko's teaching kids their perverted lifestyle and agenda in the public school system.
So dig a hole worth her in it, and put red ants it right ?? My lord, the lack of empathy and fairness - ugh
I don't have sympathy for traitors. She has bashed this country, repeatedly. She can rot in another country - she voluntarily went there, she must like it. Now she gets to be there for 9 years. Good for her.
I would love to hear/see how much effort the US is actually putting into getting her freed. Not the public statements.....but what's actually being done.
I suspect a strongly worded email has been sent. Maybe in all caps for emphasis.
She hates the U.S.A. anyway. Think of it as 9 years vacation away from such a horrible country, Brit.
Anther bonus is that she won't have to hear the oppressive Star-Spangled Banner or put up with living as a famous millionaire because of white Supremacy.
On a serious note, I think she is a kind of political prisoner giving the strain in US and Russia relations. Even though she is guilty, I think her punishment would be far less severe if there wasn't a strain in US/Russia relations or if Trump was President.
