This is the only explanation that I can come up with. I can assure you that I know at all times where my firearms are, but I'm a paranoid idiot. (I also keep them locked up to the point that, IF they were needed, I'd be long dead before I got to them)Chances are the guy is kept in his bag on a regular basis and he forgot to take it out.
Let's not forget he was on the scene of a mall shooting last year. I wouldn't blame the guy for wanting to take one with him to protect his family

That made me laugh as well. That whole report is garbage. If I just read that little news clip with no other knowledge, I'd assume he's rotting in a Mexican jail as we speak.I think people fail to realize how often this happens. But I do like the "along with a magazine loaded with hollow point bullets, which are designed to cause more damage" part to make all the uniformed and anti gun people think it was more serious than it actually was.

Takes on a whole new meaning if his spotter tells him to "give him a shot."I wonder if Joey's looking over his shoulder now that he knows Kyle is packing and "owes him one".
Thats some top shelf reporting.Sentencian a tres años y medio de cárcel a corredor de Nascar, detenido en Cancún con un arma de fuego
Tres años tendrá que pasar en una cárcel del estado el piloto de automovilismo de velocidad que compite en la Copa Nascar Thomas Busch.quintafuerza-mx.translate.goog
If Kyle doesn’t come out to either of these at Bristol, it’s a huge missed opportunity
Why would you take a vacation somewhere you felt you needed a gun for protection? Why would you take your family somewhere you felt that was necessary?I think flying around in private jets might make people complacent.
How do you pack for a trip and not notice the gun in your travel baggage?
I'm wondering if that bag is always on his plane and since his flights are FBO he didnt think the plane would be searched. I'm sure its not the first time he's flown internationally with it.I think flying around in private jets might make people complacent.

It's a matter of how you raise your children. Growing up our house we knew where all the guns and ammo was kept. Taught how to properly shoot and respect a firearm. Never once did the thought cross our minds as kids to take them out and shoot someoneIf you own a gun, how do you not know where it is? Particularly if you have children?
This is hilariousHe was Candyman Kyle for all these years....now he’s Cartel Kyle
I can see him getting out in 3 years with good behaviour. Although he will probably spend his remaining years living on the outskirts of society with a crack pipe as his best friend.Bush was sentenced to 3 1/2 years...IDK how he is going to get out of that. Maybe the Amigo can put in a good word for him.
Tbh the irony is that his new boss actually did shoot at some people a few years ago. Kind of like an initiation for him.I don't own a firearm, but if I did, I can't imagine I would forget where I left it. This is unfortunate, and I'd imagine he doesn't have to end up fulfilling that prison sentence. But man, no excuse. Gotta be smarter than this. This sort of ignorance is just a bit too much for me to say "eh, mistakes happen"
Hopefully he doesn't have to pay any sort of serious consequences though. Not deserved.
All this aside, I do find this a bit amusing that NASCAR's biggest villain of the last 30 years, maybe ever, finds himself in this situation as he's starting with a new team.

Translation is epic:Thats some top shelf reporting.
I'll tell you my experiences flying out of Concord Regional FBO, I park my car, get my suitcase out of the trunk and my laptop bag, walk in the front door and right out the back to the plane, pilot loads my ( our) stuff then we are gone. Everytime. They do have TSA for the public flights like American, Spirit, Allegiant etc... I have not flown international out of CR FBO but in my mind I dont see how it would be any different to board the plane.I assume you have to go through TSA checks in the "private" flight terminals? Especially international flights?
Wonder why it wasn't flagged in the US? Thats the scary part to me. Mexican TSA catches it but US doesn't?
It may have been secured in his baggage from Charlotte.I assume you have to go through TSA checks in the "private" flight terminals? Especially international flights?

Well that would explain how he got it to Mexico no issues. When we went through security/customs upon arrival I don't remember any kind of x rays and none of us had our stuff went through. But we were commercial both ways. Mexico must have something for outbound private flights obviously.I'll tell you my experiences flying out of Concord Regional FBO, I park my car, get my suitcase out of the trunk and my laptop bag, walk in the front door and right out the back to the plane, pilot loads my ( our) stuff then we are gone.

And a high profile NASCAR driver would probably want some protection travelling to a nation where the word "police" means absolutely nothing and cartels rule.
He's no threat to anyone in Mexico, has no priors, and now isn't likely to come back. Letting him buy his way out sounds like a great way to operate. Why spend taxpayer money to lock him up for three years?I thought the 3 1/2 year prison sentence was crazy exorbitant, but now I see you can buy your way out of it...because Mexico lol.
Well, it WAS kind of a girly gun. My wife has one and calls it "Short & Wimpy".Hey, how do we know it isn't Samantha's weapon and that Kyle isn't taking the fall?
Well...you can get avocados from the Dominican Republic or Peru. It is a principle. Bush was convicted to serve 3.5 years in jail. Seriously! This is so incredibly backwards. And the government of Mexico should recognize this. Fine the man and move on.I'm supposed to boycott avocados because Kyle got his knuckles whacked?
"Ah. Which principle would that be?", I asked, knowing both our posts aren't long for this forum.It is a principle.
Do you think that being caught with a gun because you forgot to unpack it, should be punishable by three and half years in prison?"Ah. Which principle would that be?", I asked, knowing both our posts aren't long for this forum.
