did you hear the news about this famous American WNBA professional basketball player? she went to play basketball in Russia and got caught at the airport with marijuana in her bag. it’s illegal there so she’s now in a Russian jail and will face up to 10 years in a Russian prison. some American politicians are demanding for her to be released? really? i don’t like to get involved with topics like this but i always teach the kids that rules are rules. and if you break the rules, there are consequences. every country has their own set of rules and if you don’t like them, don’t go. it’s only in America where you can shoot and kill a guy, get bailed out of jail, then be back in your comfortable home the next day. i think that’s more crazy than anything. anyway, it’s sad that this young basketball star has to be the example of the rules. in other countries, smuggling drugs results in the death penalty. i don’t know which one is better…
