The idea that people have to be told to not put bullets in their carryon is ridiculous
As an American who has traveled all over the world and lived in 4 foreign countries..... when entering any country that is not the USA, you must follow their laws and rules. It does not matter if you agree with their laws and rules, or if you think their laws and rules are 'silly' or 'harsh' or 'stupid'. You are a guest in that country, and you have to abide by the same laws and rules as the citizens who live there. If you don't like it, then stay home.
TSA not doing their job
assuming there were, in fact, bullets in the luggage that the TSA screened.
Americans better realize the rest of the world don’t play with guns or ammo.
100%
At all he would have been in a world of trouble had it been the uk or Australia for the same offense.
very, very lucky it was Turks and Caicos and not Dominican Republic, Haiti or Mexico.
@@duncansmith7562 absolutely 😂
No we don’t!!!
First......we Americans and our stupid fixation with weapons.....I have never understood it.
I can understand Turks and Caicos and its really irresponsible on the part of those tourists to not thoroughly check their luggage before flying. its even worse for the TSA, because that likely tells you how much drugs and ammunition is being smuggled in and out of the country. Why do you think Haiti is the way it is and the Opioid crisis is in full swing? Those lazy TSA agents aren't doing their job. At the same time, this is not a good look for Turks and Caicos, I'm sure tourism is a big part of their economy. Americans are notorious for long term memory and boycotting. The last thing you want is people to skip your destination. Fine them each 10 grand and send them home.
He took that bag through the airport to get there FYI. They all did.
a 12 year jail sentence is indeed absurd, for an honest mistake.
problem is, until the trial, there is no evidence it was an honest mistake, honey.
If they aren't military or police, why do they need guns to begin with
Speaks volumes for the incompetency of Americans traveling abroad that FIVE individuals are wandering around Turks and Caicos with ammo they brought into the country!
Talk about a pattern here! Nobody checks luggages at US airport anymore? Spent $$Trillions to avoid another 911 yet got people with ammos passing check points.
12 years is too much, but that doesn't make these men less guilty. Be responsible gun owners. "Mistake" and "responsible gun owner" don't mix well.
These are justified arrests. They should not have ammunition in their bags. How can he keep his kids safe if he does not even know where his own ammunition is.
I’m sorry, who randomly packs bullets to go on a cruise?
You must have never met 2A fans
It's possible that he used one bag for everything.
He probably uses that same bag for his hunting trips. Honestly, I think they'll let him off with a fine instead of a prison sentence.
@@KhalidTheSequelagain, why would a person have bullets around?
Americans should realize the rest of the world doesn’t treat guns like toys. They are tools of death.
Not a good look, claiming innocence on ammunition charges, with a map of Ukraine proudly displayed in the background.
12 years is a lot so hopefully it won’t be that long but all avoidable with a little checking .
If they can show they didn't have any ill intent then they'll probably just pay a fine and will be home in a few weeks.
This nearly happened to me last time i flew. Triple check your bags and turn them upside down and shake. Tsa really dropped the ball on these cases.
TSA dropped the ball big time because had he been caught on this end he might have been ok
Jesus Christ! Y’all be sure to search your bags well. Or have special bags you only use for international travel. How is the tsa not finding these things.
At first I was like oh well. But realizing tsa let him through with it is also the problem. Almost like tsa wanted him or could care less about them getting into trouble
TSA in Oklahoma. We should be mindful where it was that saw the bullets and said, that’s fine.
Americans other countries are not light with arms regulations. Let's take arms seriously... let's regulate arms.
Ammo life matters
lucky break it was Turks and Caicos.
Dominican Republic or Mexico would have these guys sweating on the trial even more.
Not true. You can pay the bribe to get out of jail in DR and Mexico...I know this from personal experience....if you have the cash, you can get out...isn't cheap though.
@@jilldiamond8619 oh, sure, you have personal experience of paying loads of cash to get out of jail in both the DR and Mexico. Looks like you have a knack of getting into serious trouble all over Latin America.
I will NEVER go to Turks and Caicos after this. I don't visit countries that don't take intent into account in their penal code, and that have unreasonably harsh mandatory minimum sentences for accidental mistakes. I will spend my tourist dollars elsewhere, thank you.
Good, stay home.
The United States judicial system can be worse. FYI
Two bullets? The same kind of bullets? Set up??
