So quick to judge with only part of the story. Yes I took the parts out of a valuable piece of electronic history, but it was on the way to be carted off to a scrap yard and I had no way of transporting a huge machine. With only a bike for transport and not enough time to arrange for someone to help move it, much less enough room to store it or know anyone that could immediately take it I did the only sensible thing. I salvaged what I could so not all of it would be crushed and melted or the coils yanked out for copper.
Better to put the image tube assembly and CRT in my backpack than let it all be dropped into a dumpster and broken to pieces.
To calm you down here's something that they thankfully realized was of enough importance to be preserved.
