Moral dilemma for the masses:

A wallet is found in the woods, containing $16 in cash, 2 credit cards, a driver's license, and a parole card.  The guy served a 7 year sentence for 2nd degree burglary, and is now on parole (thanks, Google).  He is also Muslim (Abdul Hussein, but has several different aliases).  Recently, a terrorist cell was broken up in the town where the wallet has been found, and there have been specific threats against a "leading news agency" technology center located near the wallet.  The person that found the wallet works in said tech center.

The question.  Should he:
a) call the guy, and give him everything back
b) call the guy, and give him his wallet less the cash
c) keep the cash and toss the wallet
d) call the cops, and turn it in and let them deal with it

Call him, and arrange a place to give him back his property.

When he arrives, beat him unmercifully with a tire iron.

Go home.

Buy 16 dollars worth of lottery tickets with the cash.  Spend all the available dough on the credit cards buying shtein that will raise red flags on terrorist watch lists.  Then rape a hooker and leave the license & parole card at the scene of the crime.

Chuck Norris would beat Jack Bauer to death with his left pinky.

Or with that extra fist he has under his beard.

The correct answer is D.

Even a moneylover like myself (and I do love me some money, dammit) knows that $16 isn't enough to bother stealing.

A combo of C and D.  Keep the money then call the cops.

I've recommended D to him.  No reason to steal, and I wouldn't want to deal with the felon muslim.
