The Catholic white glove treatment for VIP drug dealers
Nice boat, Sir! How much do you charge for a passenger cruise at the aforementioned registered port of call?
The cops are grossly abusing court process with excessive fines, bail, and inordinate service of process on unrelated trivial matters instead of busting the boat for drug dealing and bringing the proper drug charges in federal court.

These are the same seditious Catholic Democrat cops and insubordinate military officers who obstinately insist Trump's orders are illegal to follow — so they write civilian traffic tickets and serve obnoxious civil process in state and local court only even in the middle an active naval combat and drug-dealing zone.
The next step in accordance with established maritime laws is of course to have the small-time state and local courts served with lawful orders terminating their jurisdiction in such matters. There's plenty of drug money to pay top-dollar lawyers for all of that.
