I went home with a waitress the way I always do
How was I to know she was with the russians, too?

I was gambling in Havana, I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns, and money
Dad, get me out of this!

Not much we can do if you end up in a Russian prison.

Because of Sniffy’s sanctions and his arming of Ukraine, I would not want to be an American in Russia today.

Well he’s not a lesbian basketball player, so he’s pretty much screwed.

Can you blame the lad for thinking it was wrong?

George Floyd stole, and threatened his girlfriend with murder - and he got Nancy Pelosi and Congress to kneel before his image.

Well, it’s not as if Staff Sgt. Black is a WNBA lesbian, so he’s out of luck.

Yeah. We can discuss the events leading to the war. But on February 24, 2022, we had to support Ukraine. Otherwise, the Russians would have conquered Ukraine by now.

“U.S. officials have said that Black, who is married, met Vashchuk in South Korea.”

That’s going to be an interesting conversation.

The girlfriend looks like a man.

Maybe in that part of the world they aren’t smokin hot.

Looks like the standard Russian honey-trap.
I wonder what sort job/work the GI does in the Army?

Detained U.S. soldier in Russia.

Girl: “I just came home, and here is some gringo waiting”

Here's a sweet video from Aleksandra Vashchuk, the ex-girlfriend of U.S. military officer Gordon Black. The love story is over: Black was arrested after Aleksandra filed a complaint.

I didn’t think active duty soldiers could visit places like Russia.

“Black enlisted in the Army in 2008, and deployed to Iraq from October 2009 through September 2010, and to Afghanistan from June 2013 until March 2014. He is an infantry soldier.”

Sounds like he is a squad leader.

You can get arrested for stealing?

And a prison sentence?

Barbarians!

He had a wife back in Texas, and a Russian girlfriend in Korea who left him and returned home to Russia. He’s an idiot for chasing after her. He admits to getting in a physical confrontation with her and stealing about $100. She claimed he threatened to kill her, which he denies. He claims he only “restrained her”. A Russian citizen would have got a slap on the wrist and been sent to Ukraine, so he’s lucky to get off with 4 years. Sometimes stupid hurts.
