[He was put in jail for 6 months, but that is not the end of the story. We discovered he has applied to bring another RW to the States, his third.]

Sounds like he should have been locked up for a lot longer.

What does that have to do with our rights to say hello? Don't go soft on us here.

And I fully understand that the man applies for the visa but, of course, have never done so myself.

The State Department has to allow us to bring women to the USA as girlfriends, not as "fiances". The current system is sick. You know this. You are on the right side.

Everyone still has a right to call or visit without using a business, businesses that promise marriage, are regulated as any business is.

You and any other American man has a right to say hello. You just do not have a right to bring her into the country.

That is not what you said.

YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BRING YOUR GIRLFRIENDS TO THE STATES FOR VISITS. IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, AND THERE WILL BE NO CHANGE IN THE LAW. The problem with Russia and many other former Soviet countries is the women coming on tourist and other visas never return home, but melt into the society. I have regular discussions with Senator Brownback's office on this very issue. Let me repeat, it will never happen.
