US doesn’t really celebrate it, but my city pretty much has protests every year.
Then again, we protest anything and everything, so it fits right in. :)

Needs one more segment:

What’s with the dude wearing the white bowtie?
Looks like it may have been brightened slightly?

The origjnal is a Philco Predicta from around 1958 or so. The Philco brand existed for years and years, first as a maker of radios, then as a maker of televisions.
The retro-futurist Predicta line ran for just 2 years, 1958 to 1960.

It definitely gained a hold though and has been featured in both the Sims and Fallout games:
In the 90’s, the brand was acquired by a tiny company called Telstar who hand-made reproductions using Phillips parts, that’s who made mine in 2001.
25", full color, with composite, component and S-Video inputs. It even supports 480p video!
8·1 day agoYup. If it’s my house, it falls under #2, my neighbors house would fall under #1.
#1 is not an option while Repiblicans control the House and Democrats have less than 60 votes in the Senate. Impeachment will not move forward.
Even if it does, you still need 67 to convict and remove, but at this point, it can’t even get to that vote.

In fact, I’ve done that for comic books.
It varies state by state, and sometimes by municipality.
“According to the memo, agents can break into a home if getting a warrant is “impracticable,” and they don’t need a judge’s approval.”

"a person is not justified in using deadly physical force upon another person unless the person reasonably believes that the other person is:
(1) Committing or attempting to commit a felony involving the use or threatened imminent use of physical force against a person; or
(2) Committing or attempting to commit a burglary in a dwelling; or
(3) Using or about to use unlawful deadly physical force against a person. [1971 c.743 §23]"

It’s Congress though, so “Circular Firing Squad”. :)
Contrary to popular opinion, mods don’t scrape all the threads looking for removable content.
We remove it when we see it, and sometimes it takes a report to make that happen.
