Stealing pillows and blankets

I was on AA flight 2412 LAX - DFW this morning (767-300 I think). Anyway, I am sitting in row 6 of F and a boarding PAX with a curious look on his face catches my attention. The next thing I know the guy grabs a pillow and a blanket, still wrapped in the plastic bag, off an F seat and bolts into coach. A few minutes later the F PAX whose pillow and blanket was heisted shows up and begins looking for them. He asks an FA who grabs a set off of an empty seat. A few minutes after the PAX whose pillow and blanket was involuntarily given to the first F PAX boards but thankfully did not notice/care.

It’s bad enough when a coach PAX purposely puts bags in F/J overhead before even checking the overhead around his/her assigned seat, but grabbing the pillow and blankets! What's next? Some PAX is going decide the under seat space is shared space too and shove his oversized suit carrier under the seat in front of me as he passes?

Glad to see behavior and decorum is only getting worse amongst travelers. Elite status should grant the EXP FF 2 flying sidekicks a year to be inflicted on idiot PAX at his/her discretion. Like SWUs except possibly more rewarding.
