Exactly! White dude breaking the law is just an innocent victim of a bad law.

I made the same mistake traveling into Canada en route to Alaska when I was 17 (late 90s). I had, say, half a dozen .22 cartridges rattling around in a box that contained other hunting gear. Would have sworn I had no ammunition if you had asked me--I simply didn't know. Canadian customs found them and gave me the third degree and tore apart my car looking for a gun. Then they waved me through.
The T&C law is stupid as f*ck.
No, it’s not. The island has been suffering with gun violence and the government is cracking down on entry of guns and ammo. Smart if you asked me. People “forgetting” ammo in suitcases seems like a uniquely American phenomenon.

I once threw my backpack on the TSA X-ray conveyor belt forgetting I had a spent cartridge from a cannon used by old Ironsides. I had gone out on a sail and got one as a souvenir. It looked exactly like what you think it would under X-ray - a huge metal bullet and smelled like gunpowdery stuff. State police weren’t thrilled with me but did offer to hold it for me so I could pick it back up when I came back to Boston so I could ship it home. They let me get on the flight anyway.

Would that you were. You're much worse, a self-righteous prig.

Ha ha, watch out for someone discovering they have ammo on the plane and then popping it into your bag!

I'm usually lenient over such things. I don't hunt, but I have ADHD, so I can totally understand how little things can be forgotten in a suitcase.

I don't travel with ammunition, but for those that do, do you have it rattling around your suitcase? Do you not remove when arriving home or before packing your bag for a trip you don't need to be armed? Is this totally lacking in safe gun practices as it sounds?
