The bottom line is that when a firearm is discovered with no owner present, the appropriate thing to do is turn it over to the police for safekeeping.

If the gun is in an unlocked bag, its not flying.

We all take that risk when traveling with firearms.
Except it was the government that made it unsecured. If one department breaks down a house's door on accident, another department doesn't get to go in and take anything that they want. They secure the door, they don't take the jewelry.
