“I’ve been here for almost 70 days now after posting bail.”
Is he on the island out on bail? Seems like someone should be able to get him out of there at 3am on a plane or yacht. These pricks suckle the American teat and then act extremist when a guy made an innocent mistake. Fine him and let him go.
Does it matter the ammo was for this? Runs through it fast.

“The U.S. State Department is warning travelers about strict new laws in Turks and Caicos Islands that carry a mandatory minimum sentence of 12 years for bringing guns or ammunition to the island.”
What do people expect from Turkey?
My carryon backpack never sees firearms or ammo for this reason. Totally separate bag. Or knives.
Solution: never, ever go there!
Working vacation in a third world nation.
This is not Turkey.
Decades ago I was going through the process and had a waterproof box with cigars and a plug cutter that was just an empty case from a 7.62 x 54 and the primer was removed. The inspector clueso of the totally stupid a$$}{0£€$ hauled Me off to the side for a 25 minute Q&A because of it.
While I'm going through that I watched 4 ragheads stroll through the checkpoint with out even slowing down...
Ladies and gentlemen, enjoy your laugh of the day.

......I lived in the Caribbean part of 2012 and all of 2013. I stayed for months at a time on St. Thomas, St. Croix and St. Maarten.
The weapon of choice for the “natives” down there is a machete. An artist, who was an American, got chopped up on St. Croix. He lived about a mile from me. After that, I went to St. Maarten. A couple from South Carolina got chopped up by their own “security” guards. A lady friend of mine got robbed at the point of an AK 47 sitting at a table in a well known beachfront restaurant. Minutes later, a machine gun battle broke out between police and the robbers. Several dead.
Guns are legal to own in the US Virgin Islands but the cops sell your information, including your address, to local gangs who drop by at 3 am and steal your guns if not kill you.
The best thing to do about the Caribbean is stay away. You are playing Russian Roulette when you go there.
Turkey (the nation) was not mentioned in the article. The Turk Islands, situated in the Caribbean, were mentioned. They are two completely different places.
Somehow I just don’t feel sorry for them. The USA is one of the most gun friendly places in the world where we can travel through most states with all the ammo we can hold, to include a gun to shoot it.
These boneheads should have had the brains to check the laws of other countries and be certain they had nothing that could get them in trouble.
We live just a few miles from Canada. Simply taking a spent 22 casing across the border will get you into trouble. Before going to Canada I do a complete search of my own vehicle just to look for ammo and spent casings.
These morons are learning a valuable lesson in travel outside the US.
“The best thing to do about the Caribbean is stay away.”
When I cruise, I don’t even get off the ship anymore. The Caribbean is horrible. I only cruise to get away from work. I’m on call 24x7 and it’s the only vacation I know where they can’t recall me.
For sure.
The government is such liars.
Take the Midnight Express!
Forget it, he’s rolling!
Even in the US you need to be careful with some states. MA has ridiculous laws about even carrying ammo, which could be a problem for NH residents who often carry all kinds of stuff.
Often, we stay onboard while in port, except sometimes we have bought meds if a pharmacy is right at the pier. (Would never do that again with the fentanyl issue now.)
That’s the best time to be on the ship, since the majority of people are off in the filthy towns.
