I just want to point out one thought it comes to me.

I can understand all philosophical discussions about the dilemma "to return or not return", "karma or not karma", ethics, education and many other argumentation.

It just happens that yesterday I had my flight JFK-SAO (home).

I travel quite a lot, often Brazil USA, back and forth, every year, several times, for several years and I can understand quite well all security involved on American airports.

It´s well known that if you spot an unattended parcel, bag or whatever object (Kindle included) you should call the Airport Security.

That´s what I should have done.

Even if it was abroad, it doesn´t matter, I can tell you, I´ve heard too much about disguised objects (weapons, mines, bombs an alike) , that´s what I would do.

I wouldn´t play chances.
