It’s their laws. Americans are not immune to prosecution.
Right
💯💯
Imagine a country actually enforcing their laws. I would like to.
That doesn’t make the punishment fair, especially given the context - i.e., carrying ammo is not illegal where the guy lives and he didn’t intentionally bring it with him. Life is not black and white. 12 years is too much for a mistake.
So gay. Don't be lame.
Dude...... dude! America's laws don't apply outside America.
Who said that he thought that ?
It is easy for small objects to slip under folds in travel bags. I am curious how TSA didn't catch 4 bullets when leaving the US
I would never visit a backwards country like that
the right to own a gun is granted by God to all humans
@@MeadeSkeltonMusic I’m sure the people who live there are very happy you said that
Why are you packing ammo in your luggage? 🧳 I have no sympathy for people like this. 🙄
He didn’t pack it. He had 4 rounds (“bullets” to you) in his bag that were probably left over from a hunting trip since they said they were used for hunting and they were probably at the bottom of his bag or in a small pocket he forgot to check or even consider.
@@jseehowitsbeen3177so that's an acceptable response if I'm caught with a little weed?
The law is the law and you're not even supposed to travel domestic flights with ammo.
Besides, whatever happened to ammo boxes? I have several that I got from an army surplus store for this very reason.
I have zero sympathy or tolerance for bad gun owners. Maybe this will teach him so he doesn't endanger himself or his family if he's this irresponsible.
You probably don’t have sympathy for anyone.
I feel very little sympathy for this couple. No.1 rule when traveling to another country… DONT bring weapons, ammunition or drugs with you. Your 2nd amendment right ends at your borders.
Don’t bring Drugs to Russia unless you are a pro basketball player and the president gots your back and one arms dealer to trade
EXACTLY!
Fact!
@l.b.7543 Just like in Britney Griner's case, I think this couple just made a stupid but honest mistake. Sometimes, people are just absent-minded. I hope they can avoid the husband being sentenced.
@@emem2863Americans just must be prohibited to travel
It is absolutely your responsibility to check your bags. Sad for the kids but he was irresponsible.
Right
Yeah I don't get why people are using his children as some kind of appeal.
The fact that he's a father is really all the more reason he should have been more responsible, both because his children need him and to set a good example for them!
Thus, he deserves 12 years in prison? Give me a break
Yeah. He should celebrate the fact that he didn't know that something was in his bag and is now facing over a decade in prison for it. You should have just allowed everyone to be content with strongly suspecting that you are a mental lightweight. I guess you had to verify.
I would not vacation in Turks and Caicos. They should have checked their bags obviously but facing 12 years in prison for an innocent mistake is outrageous.
I loved how is becoming the new norm to play the victim card and not take any responsibility for stupidity
I’m sure the guy would admit that he was stupid to not check his bag. But that still doesn’t warrant a 12 year prison sentence.
@@damnjustassignmeoneneither did a piece of weed. But y'all were eager for that sentence. Wrong color?
So what he should be given a kiss and just sent home?... that is their law?...they didn't ask you to go there?...Oh!... victim?...
It’s literally… the TRUMP card…….😅
@@janeabailey3361mic drop!
_Being an idiot is not an excuse for breaking the law..._ 🙄
How is that being an idiot? It's an honest mistake. They didn't know it was in their luggage.
@@patmos7521Sure they didn’t know 😂😂😂😂
@@patmos7521You believe they did not know?😮
Who carries or stores ammunition in suitcases? Shouldn’t it be in a locked secured storage device like a responsible gun owner would have ESPECIALLY having small children in the home!
How did it get passed TSA- too many DEI hirees
Why would anyone travel with ammo in their luggage. Ignorance of the law is no excuse!
It’s pretty obvious that he’d previously used that baggage on a hunting trip and missed those when he unpacked.
I feel for this guy. Twice in the last couple of decades did I have unknown stray ammunition in a crevice of my luggage. It’s easy to do inadvertently. Once it was when I found ammunition on a trail when I was hiking and threw it in my pack to clean up the “litter” and forgot about it, and then when I flew to Scotland it was found in the pocket of my pack in Heathrow. The second time I used an old range bag to travel and there was one stray round of 9mm ammo in the bottom corner of a pocket that must have fallen out of an ammo box. Fortunately, I did not get in trouble, but it truly is an easy mistake to make.
@@ZaneDouglas1 It is. You got to watch those range bags though; they make great travel bags, but alert every customs canine.
This is a warning for American hunters. It would have happened to me had I not remembered he took that bag out to South Dakota. When I checked there were random shells.
Still shouldn’t get 12 years for a mistake that’s ridiculous
Why is it acceptable for Americans to beg for sympathy when they break laws in other countries, but when it's the other way around, Americans will scream too bad? This case isn't about jaywalking or littering. These people brought deadly weapons into another country. Shame on them and to those who support them.
Bullets are deadly weapons now?
Who’s defending him? You’re just producing strawmen
exactly you are 100% correct
They lying
He did not bring any deadly weapons. It was ammunition.
Typical example of feeling entitled

@@lifesabeach5405 no it wasn’t. If you had bothered to listen to the reporter, they clearly state that it was his carry on bag, Einstein.
Are we supposed to feel sorry for this guy?
Why is it news that you need to know the laws and check your luggage for anything not allowed when you travel to another country?
Bingo...exactly
Yeah I feel sorry for him and his children. You're cold considering the man has children. Careful of your quickness to judge. Might come back to you in equal proportions
Another gun owner showing his IQ
Yeah it’s a bit overkill. It doesn’t take a genius to recognize that.
"Stray ammunition".
Why don't Americans read the laws of a country before going over there? They always expect others to follow the rules when someone comes here from another country.
Read the laws? What are you talking about? There's no need to read the laws on weapons. NO COUNTRY ALLOWS FOREIGNERS TO BRING IN ANY TYPE OF WEAPON.
But there from america so they feel like they can do whatever they want wherever they go, I guess they learned something
@@cutiepiecatloveallanimals6602 they feel too protected in America and can't face the reality of every other country that doesn't allow 16 year old Tom to have a gun
@@flyingpiglet4698 right
@@iu2 Not true at all. People fly here from all over the world for shooting matches.
Fun fact for all that didn't know: The Turks and Caicos Islands doesn't manufacture firearms and ammunition however it's the single biggest problem on the Islands? Ever wondered how it got on the Islands?
Law is Law. I'm sure visiting tourists would prefer to not be shot, killed or robbed by the same firearms and ammunition that their fellow Americans brought on the Islands.
No sympathy here. Careless firearm owner. That shouldn't be a mistake happening.
It's not Americans that bring the guns there that leads to crimes.
Not by a father of 3 accidentally forgetting about a few rounds in his backpack that were left over from a hunting trip. I can confidently say that this is not the main cause of crime in the Turks and Caicos.
@damnjustassignmeone Actually it is in fact the main cause. Persons smuggling firearms and ammunition through ports on entry from the United States effects literally all Caribbean countries. Caribbean countries do not manufacture ammunition and firearms. A father a three should ensure he's doing what is correct. He should be responsible and ensure he takes no prohibited time to a foreign country. Morally I agree it doesn't deserve 12 years and I'm sure the judge would agree too. He'll spend 8 months or less. But at the end of the day, law is law. Residence get sentenced to 12 years however outsiders believe they shouldn't get the same charge?
I think you should direct your concerns with the TSA and figure our why these ammunition weren't flagged prior to leaving the USA knowing it's illegal wherever you travel to.
@@flyingpiglet4698 You do know that guns and ammo are manufactured in many countries right? And you know the cartels don't make the guns and ammo that they use all over the Caribbean, and Latin America
@masonite1973 I never said it was manufactured in America. I said it wasn't manufactured in the Caribbean and it's also ILLEGAL in most of not all Caribbean countries. It's literally proven that America is the #1 source for ammunition and firearms within Caribbean countries and it's literally a proven fact. Look at Haiti!!
It's a Free Country....
But you went to a different country 🤔
As a non American looking from the outside i get triggered around anything to do with guns. Yeah yeah hunting. Self defense. Its like accidentally forgetting i packed a little cocaine on my holiday
I’m American and I totally agree! Some of us are non- trump and anti- guns. It’s embarrassing frankly and senseless
That's a great analogy. Oops, I forgot shows a lack of responsibility on his part. Laws generally do not have an exclusion for oops I forgot.
I'm sorry you are triggered about tools, you might try talking to a therapist about that.

If you don’t know where your ammo is, perhaps you should not be allowed to have it.

Don't vacation outside the US since you're also incapable of understanding inference.
@@kerrytodd3753hey hun... no one buys ammo if they dont own a gun. that's the gun that he's referring to. maybe time for you to go to bed
No leniency! Remember how they were celebrating about Britney? Now they want to defend this irresponsible gun owner.
In the case of Britany Griner, she actually intentionally smuggled drugs into Russia. That it the sort if thing you expect from a scumbag dictatorship like Russia.
In this case an American tourist made an honest mistake and brought four bullets (no weapon) into the United Kingdom. You have every reason to expect that the British government wouldn't allow the locals in one of their colonies to pull that sort of crap. This is representatives of the British government pulling this crap not the Russians.
What's the story? Someone broke the law of Turks and Caicos and went to jail. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse. If you bring drugs, guns or ammo into a foreign country this is what happens. OR should the law only apply to "those people"?
Drugs guns and ammo are freely flowing over the southern border
@@mikegoldstein7112Right who does he think he's selling it to? He knew he should have quadruple checked that bag!
My favorite backpack has tons of pockets on it. I keep a pistol in one pocket. I took the pistol and a spare magazine out before a plane trip to Texas about a year ago. I searched the rest of the backpack for knives, water bottles and such. Got to Texas and looking in my backpack for sunglasses in a small pocket I had even searched before I found a second spare magazine for my pistol. It made it through DIA security. I don't normally carry two spare magazines for my pistol so I don't remember even putting it in that odd pocket, way underneath dramamine, advil and my sunglasses.
Turks and Cacos is not a country anymore than the US Virgin Islands or Guam are a country.
This is the Britsh Government pulling this Banana Republic, Fidel Castro wannabe crap.
@mikegoldstein7112 I don't think I was clear, it was a spare loaded magazine with 7 rounds of .380 bullets. And I specifically searched that pocket but it was at the very bottom and when I poked through it before the trip I think I thought it was a cigarette lighter.
Wtf did they bring ammo on vacation?
Well, if you had a brain cell functioning you would realise this guy is a hunter and he didn't realise he had rounds in his bag. Easily done. He clearly had no intention of starting a war.
@@louisefox4852 Even easier to remove the ammo from your bag before traveling out of the country.
@@_NoHandle_exactly. The fact that he didn't know where all of his ammunition was says a lot about his attitude towards guns and ammunition.
What if it wasn't an accident? What if it were placed in his bag on purpose?
@@cremebrulee4759😂it was 4 rounds =4 bullets. He had no weapon just 4 bullets that he didn't know were in his bag and he went through airport security to get to the island, so why didn't TSA remove the ammo?You really should educate yourself instead of making yourself look stupid on the internet.
Do you REALLY need a warning not to carry AMMO overseas? The wife’s crocodile tears are equally unimpressive.
@@randallwinters7387 🤫
Right on. Irresponsible people shouldn't own a weapon.

That's zero tolerance. Either everyone wants it or they don't. Everyone needs to play by the same set of rules.
They are too stupid to own guns! How do you NOT KNOW you have live ammo in YOUR luggage?
How do you not know there’s a toothbrush from 6 months ago in your bag. Like it or not, guns and ammo are legal in the USA. Thank God. People travel with them in their bags. He forgot about it…

Too bad. Is he one of those Americans who doesn't understand that laws are different in different countries in the you should check those laws before you're going to visit another country? Also, why would you not check to make sure there was no ammo in your luggage, anyway? It's just carelessness.
You've got to know the laws when you go to another country.

@@patmos7521 So it's okay for me to transport drugs, as long as I didn't know they were in the bag?
@@patmos7521If he didn’t know it was in his luggage then he is either an irresponsible gun owner from America, or he let someone in the country he was visiting have access to his luggage before trying to return. Either scenario still holds him accountable to the laws of the country he was visiting. 🙄
Yep, I agreed. You need to follow the rules when you are in other country.
I feel for his wife and kids, but when traveling internationally it is always a wise idea to check the State Department advisories and local laws that tourists should be aware of. (Like the ones about not chewing gum in Singapore.). And even when flying domestically, I always always start with totally empty bags. Even my purse gets emptied out. Every nook and cranny is checked.
Wise words.
Yeah, this is how I feel about it. I'm sorry their husband and father is an idiot, but he should know the laws when travelling internationally and check his luggage! In addition, leaving stray rounds in a bag even just at his home, considering he has children in the house, is also irresponsible and reckless of him.
The wife did it so she can hook up with the vacation pool boy. dang smart move on her part.
If you are ignorant, don't leave home.
Who leaves random rounds in an empty bag?
Especially if your a parent!
Honestly, good point!
Outside of not checking your bag before travelling internationally, leaving stray rounds in a suitcase in your home when you have children in the house is another level of irresponsibility.
random BULLETS in your suitcase?😂😂 omg
Dont bring ammo to another country 😂
Makes you think, are those guns more important then watching your son graduate or teaching your son to shave or taking your daughter to um um oh yea dances, guess he didn’t care to see her graduate, yay guns, america
Yes, they are. The dude didn't care to jeopardize his freedom; he had to have his guns.
He didn’t bring guns into the country. He accidentally had left 4 rounds (“bullets”) in his bag that were probably at the bottom of his bag when he packed or in some small pocket. Granted he and everyone else should check their bags before going on a trip, kind of like how everyone should make intelligent comments without lying about events that happened, but to say he should get 12 years over this is stupid. Make him pay a fine, which is probably what they actually want (money), and if they feel really extra ban him from going to that country again.
@@jseehowitsbeen3177 yeap exactly what an American would think, to bad the judge isn’t American, think before you do stupid things with ammunition especially when not in America
@@cutiepiecatloveallanimals6602 Are you American? Why do you hate America so much?
If we had those kind of laws in America, we wouldn’t have a problem as we do now
This “Innocent and terrible mistake” could have been prevented. Know the laws of the country in which you are visiting. This is another example of some US citizens thinking the laws shouldn’t apply to them.
TSA could have prevented it too...
Different countries, different laws,
Oklahoma is no-tolerance, tough on crime, Law & Order state for lawbreakers: Do the crime, do the time. No exceptions.
How do you overlook ammo? Luggage isn’t complicated. And the restrictions of weight limits and additional costs alone causes you to rethink every selection of clothing and accessories ever packed. You open the luggage and see four rounds?
“..and don’t see..” 😊
How did they get it through going there, missed that one.
Yea it was in his carry on bag. How did it get through US security?
Apparently TSA let it go through.
I know a guy who forgot that he had ammo AND his weapon in his carry-on when trying to catch a flight out of Texas. TSA questioned him for a bit, he apologized for his mistake, and they let his wife come pick up the weapon and the ammo to take home. The guy caught a later flight to his destination and was only delayed a few hours. I don't know, but it seems like TSA should be a bit more stringent on _mistakes_ involving weapons and ammo.
@@_NoHandle_ It happens more often that you think. Carrying a firearm is such a common part of some people's daily lives that they completely forget that it's even there, especially when you get in the brain fog time of packing for a trip.
@_NoHandle_ so TSA will confiscate a 5 oz shampoo but let you keep your gun and ammo. If they kept what they found, things like this wouldn't happen.
@nohandle more lenient on guns coming through airport security huh? Does thst sound like a good idea? Look what happened to this dude.
The trials and tribulations of the rich and infamous.
This illustrates the problem well. If a perfectly human oversight leads to losing track of your ammo, it can also lead to your kids (or other's kids) decorating the ceiling with their brains. I have little doubt that these people considered themselves safe and responsible gun owners.
Four rounds is different than entire guns
@@JosephStalin1941 In the US, TSA will not allow EMPTY containers on a flight because it provides a means to mix a cocktail of something dangerous among other co-conspirators on a flight. In that sense, four rounds is NOT that different; you just need to assemble the parts, which someone could say, "It wasn't even loaded; that is different."
And they a raising kids, I hope the stupid does not rub off on the children.
Yikes! If that fella thinks that is unjust, he should stay away from Red States. If women make a mistake there, they imprison them for 18 years.

Nah. Ask your Oklahoma senator for help. Ahahahhahahha
outside America they don't put up with fools
Why are they always trying to sneak across the border illegally into America then?
When he leaves prison, he might think again about owning guns😮. If you don't know where your ammo is, you have a problem.
Don't break the law in other countries 🤷🏾♀️
So this guy just leaves ammo rounds laying around in his luggages 🤨
You have to keep track on every ammo u own. Check clothing, and check luggage for any contraband.
And how did tsa in the states not catch this???
WTF would you take that to a foreign country?
lol play stupid games win stupid prizes. And the dude potentially paid for his own imprisonment. Irony at its finest. Definitely an Oklahoman.
I'm not makin a statement in favor of, or in opposition to guns. But who packs ammunition in their luggage by accident? I even check our bags for nail clippers, pocket knives, utility knives... before every trip.
This is AMERICANS (particularly tourists) in a nutshell... JUST because it's LEGAL and "free" in the US, doesn't necessarily mean it is in other countries.
THIS LEVEL OF ENTITLEMENT is mind-boggling tbh.
This is a great example of the problem with American gun culture. We are so laizze faire about guns that we don’t track every round. Responsible gun owners know where every weapon and round is at all times. I have no clue how you end up with 4 loose rounds in your luggage.
The court of public opinion has spoken!
If you can't do the time...dont do the crime.
Your not in Kansas anymore, deal with it.
Don’t use your range/hunting bag for travel, ESPECIALLY international travel.
Right? Like what kind of idiot does that?
And if you have to use just a regular suitcase to transport your weapons for some reason, why would you not check every inch of it to be sure before using that bag for international travel?
I mean even just having stray rounds in an empty bag in your home, when you have kids in the house, is reckless.
Just another shining example of a responsible gun owner!! Just because America doesn’t care about gun violence, don’t be so arrogant to think other countries are equally ignorant.
You really think that most gun owners are irresponsible just because of one guy on the news? More than 80 million people own guns in the United States.
@@JosephStalin1941 yes, I absolutely think most gun owners are irresponsible, if I had to put a number to it, let’s say 98%…and I’m being conservative with that guess.
@user-uz5ko8sv2f I don't think that 98% of any group of people share any similarity. That's a massive generalization. Do you think everyone is a responsible driver? Of course not, but nearly everyone drives. I'm a gun owner, but you don't know a thing about me; how can you tell I'm irresponsible? I've owned guns for over a decade, been around hundreds of people with guns, at ranges, or stores and I would say 94% - 95% of people are trustworthy with a firearm.
@@JosephStalin1941 I don’t know you, you might be one of the very few gun owners who are responsible, don’t know. What I do know is I don’t trust gun owners whatsoever, zero trust.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks these people do not have an ounce of common sense. What would make anyone think this is a good idea????!!!
Oh well guess they will pay the price for stupidity!
Just like you can't bring hash oil into Russia... I'm sure next we will hear he's a valuable member of his church, and helps elderly people...!

My guess is that it was there from a hunting trip he previously took. If you have ever come back from a long and grueling trip you will understand that sometimes it takes awhile (days/weeks/months) to fully empty out your suitcase.
"Law abiding gun owners" always take issue with following the laws.
The hunter became the caged animal!!
He effed around and found out. No sympathy, fool.
Wtf would you need to be transporting ammunition for hunting on a plane when you went on a tropical vacation? There seems to be more than they are letting on.
How do you accidentally pack ammo.? WTF?

You have to check your bags before you leave the country. It is not just stuff like weapons and related weapon stuff, my sister got fined $400 for having a single honey packet in her carryon in New Zealand. You can't bring in certain prescription meds in Indonesia. When you are traveling internationally you really have to be careful, you are a guest in their country and unless you are celebrity, government official or sports star, our government moves real slow in helping.
these wt think that they can do anything they want in a foreign country, i hope he gets a long prison sentence!
hater
Please.. even given the doubt of accidently leaving ammo in your bag.. you had all week to find it and call the embassy, or simply lose them in the sea. The ambassador MAY have had them picked up without any fuss or risk to you. Every one is responsible for their bags c'mon.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I don't have sympathy for Darwin Award nominees. This isn't news!
Guess they made it past TSA...
I hope as parents they are not as lax about guns around the house.
this does not look good for the TSA. was the ammo in the cabin? or cargo?
