A middle aged male boards and is heading for coach. As he passed by row 4, he reaches down and snatches the blanket on 4B and carries it off with him.

Should I have said anything?
IMO yes, but I try to close FC overhead bins in order to save space for late boarding seatmates.

As a thought experiment, would you have said something if he had taken several water bottles sitting at unoccupied FC seats?
