Reply to comment by missingmytowel in Russia detains WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich on espionage charges by jack_lafouine

You can’t call me a bigoted piece of shit for calling someone dumb for bringing drugs to a place where they are illegal, than getting mad about being detained. It’s why people hate American’s entitlement. Americans just do whatever they want because it’s okay at home. I know a kid who brought weed to Japan and got tossed in jail for over a year. Anyone bringing drugs into a foreign country is an idiot who deserves what’s coming to them so that other American’s stop being idiots. She didn’t even say sorry.

As I explained to somebody else you are basically advocating for long-term imprisonment of Americans through a Russian kangaroo court for political gain.

She received an extremely long sentence compared to what any Russian citizen would have received for the exact same charge and amount of marijuana.

Keep reaching comrade

Yeah, but she still knowingly brought drugs into a country where they are illegal. The decision making process that goes into bringing drugs on an airplane is different than buying a cart from an average drug dealer, if they even have carts in Russia to begin with. As a smoker myself I have anxiety about just a bit of weed in my pocket when I’m going to the airport. Let alone having the courage to bring cartridges on the plane. If she was apologetic after the fact it would be one thing, or even got the stuff over there, but she has shown 0 remorse. Also im no way they sell the Pens for carts over there, they are only legally sold everywhere in the usa because or CBD, which is also illegal in russia. So similar charge is void.

This is completely wrong. You obviously have zero clue how they convert marijuana concentrate, edibles and other forms of THC into flower weight.

They take the amount/potency and convert that into what it would be in similar flower weight. On average a typical cartridge is seen as a quarter ounce of marijuana. This conversion ratio is also the same throughout Europe and other places where marijuana is legalized

Here in Colorado when you visit a shop you're only able to buy 1 oz of product per visit. So if you buy a cartridge you're only allowed to get three quarters of an ounce of actual flower on top of it.

Gain a little bit of knowledge before speaking out of your ass to somebody who has direct information related to the topic at hand

That has nothing to do with the actual Pens needed to connect to the carts, that in cbd legal countries are sold. It is not like they have the manufacturing over there to make single use pen carts also. What you are saying has nothing to do with what I am saying. I am talking about the electronics, not the oil.

Let's count the times in your previous comment that you were talking about the oil (drug) itself and not the cartridge

Five times in that comment you were talking about the product in the cartridge

Only once did you mention the actual pen

It's almost as if you realize you were talking out of your ass because I told you you were talking out of your ass and now you're shifting the goal post. Almost
