"What Would You have Done?"

Today my dad found a wallet today containing £400 + a few hundred Euros + Credit Cards and usual wallet stuff. He found it outside a shop so he walked in and with the details in the wallet discovered that it belonged to a regular customer of this shop. So my dad left his details incase the man wanted to thank him or whatever. And about 10 minutes ago, this man calls and thanks him etc.

I started thinking about what I would have done in the same situation as my dad. Would I have gone in the shop and given the wallet in? Would you?

Well he's got his £4, so he has the chance to have all the morals he wants!

Yeh I guess it did but it left his possession and literally fell into mine. And considering possession is nine tenths of the law and he had no proof it was his or vice versa I just claimed it as my own without giving it a second thought.

Heheh.
Morals: £1.99 for 5.

But the money belonged to someone. You watched him drop it.

No because the car is clearly owned by someone due to the license plate. The cars only fit in one car so that means that they are both owned by somebody so you'd be deliberately taking from someone which I said I was against.

Feef!

sorry but I still find that very bad taking the old mans 4 pounds. You're welcome to do whatever you want of course but that's something I could never do that's just very wrong. What if it was a pregnant woman? Or 7 year old girl?
