LEBRON JAMES CLARIFIES BRITTNEY GRINER COMMENT ... 'Wasn’t Knocking Our Beautiful Country'

UPDATE6:41 PM PT -- LeBron is following up on his comment regarding Griner ... saying it wasn't meant to "knock" America, but an attempt at understanding how she's feeling throughout her incarceration. "My comments on 'The Shop' regarding Brittney Griner wasn’t knocking our beautiful country," LeBron tweeted minutes ago. "I was simply saying how she’s probably feeling emotionally along with so many other emotions, thoughts, etc inside that cage she’s been in for over 100+ days!" "Long story short #BringHerHome" LeBron James says Brittney Griner's been in captivity for way too long without the U.S. bringing her home, so if he were the WNBA star, he'd question returning to America.

Bron made the comments during a recent taping of "The Shop" ... when the conversation apparently turned to the incarcerated American hoops star.

"Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, 'Do I even want to go back to America?'"

I’ve seen that pic and I hope it is a photo shop. The russkies would be posting pics of griner being strip searched while they laugh.

it's possible that they are using it as leverage. Griner may be intersex like Stella Walsh

Boy, Lebron is going to go nuts when he finds out about the political prisoners from J6 that are still being held.

That must have been a rough childhood:

“Walsh was killed during an armed robbery in a parking lot in Cleveland, on 4 December 1980.[17][18] She was buying ribbons for a welcoming ceremony for visiting Polish basketball players.[19] An autopsy showed that she had no uterus, an abnormal urethra, and a non-functioning, underdeveloped penis, although some sources suggest she also displayed female characteristics.[20][21][22] Chromosome analysis revealed that most of her cells contained normal X and Y (male) chromosomes but some were X0 (containing only one X chromosome), resulting in XY gonadal dysgenesis.[23]

The controversy of her biological sex remains unresolved, and the situation is further complicated as many earlier documents, including her birth record, state that she was female; the Cuyahoga County coroner, Samuel Gerber, stated that Walasiewicz was “socially, culturally and legally” a woman.[5][23] There has also been controversy over whether her records and achievements should be erased.[24]”

Brittney has already pled guilty.

All that remains in the ten year sentence and sexual reorientation basic training with the Siberian guards.

Maybe they think that she has diplomatic immunity or something...Their knowledge of international law and custom is just that ignorant and childish.

What’s especially impressive is that the moron has no idea (or doesn’t much care) how incredibly racist the CCP is, particularly as manifest in its attempts to colonize much of Africa.

Bull f***ing shite. Let's see you write a New York Pravda op-ed telling us how wonderful America is and how thankful you are for the opportunity to become filthy rich.

Intersex children often have parents who chose a sex for them..get the operation while young.....but they guessed wrong about the sex the child wants to be.

It’s a strange disorder with a lot of heartache

Griner may be one of them.

Said by me tongue in cheek.

I meant, of course, our commitment to Taiwan and opposition to PRC armed invasion...

LOL! I heard that she had pled guilty but deferred making a statement at the hearing. Don’t know what kind of legal advice that she is getting. I would think that the Russians will want her to serve some time before releasing her. With the clowns we have in the State Department and the WH that could have to wait until the next administration.

She did make a statement.

She gave the Hillary home brew server defense:

“I had no intent to break the law.”
