The sloppy FBI work is appalling, but the young man’s casual attitude is what really surprised me. If I am Arab-American, I’m on the Watch List, my friend is posting stupid stuff on the internet about bombs and malls, and I find a GPS tracking device under my car, I’m thinking one wrong move and I’m headed for Gitmo. I can’t say whether or not the kid should have been under surveillance and I have no idea if they obtained a warrant, but it’s funny that they came and asked for their equipment back. They’re lucky they got it before he sold it on Craig’s List.

He also mentioned the possibility of putting it on another car. Wonder how long it would’ve taken them to notice?
yeah, I’m thinking to myself, you want to play games with the FBI? I guess you don’t understand the potential downside.
The kid sounds naive to me. Love the dialog!!
Yah! It’s the brown guy’s fault for not realizing white folks would be racist!
