Classy, FBI.
If you're going to stab someone, you might as well let them keep the knife.

Knives are expensive, ok?

One would be honored to be stabbed by this knife.

It's not that surprising once you find out he's on the watchlist because he's a frequent traveler to the middle east, and he knows it. It is kinda ****** up the government can track you like this without a warrant though.

It's sad that this is now all that it takes to be considered suspicious.

I find it kind of sad that the FBI can plant this on someones car without a warrant and then threaten the person if they don't give it back.

It's a pretty interesting story. It sounds like all they based this investigation on was one anonymous tip and a post on a blog by his friend. Well and the fact he frequently traveled to the middle east, but if that's all their basis then they have a hell of a lot more people to track. There are a lot of international students all over the country who go home throughout the school year.
