[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 3887598, member: 42584"] I have to agree with [I]Foxfire5 [/I]in the view that until a US citizen [B]officially[/B] renounces their citizenship they are still considered to be citizens of our great country, and as such, need to be accorded all the protections and assistance owed to any other citizen, regardless of their status (gender choices, race, religious beliefs, affiliations, 'marriage' choices, etc). Our Constitution does not [for the most part] discriminate against our citizens which is one of the things that makes our country so much better than others. This is not to say that Griner should be afforded any more or any special treatment above and beyond what [B]every [/B]American Citizen is afforded. Being stupid is not against our laws, though in some instances it probably should be. She broke the laws of a foreign Nation, and as such, had been arrested, convicted, and sentences under their laws to serve time in prison. So be it. But we are still obligated to monitor her treatment and provide her the necessities to ensure her safety and well being. [/QUOTE]
