Taking that TV, no matter how you try to justify it, is still theft.
It's not yours, it was not given to you by the donor, leave it alone.

And again, I'm going to explain it to you, It can't be donated because goodwill stopped accepting TVs of any type earlier this year! If you don't believe me, try taking one of your TVs to the local good will to donate, and you'll get turned down right on the spot! So actually that TV belongs to no one, it doesn't belong to goodwill and it doesn't belong to the previous owner! Its just trash. And just like what you and others on here like to do, I was picking through "trash" and saving something that was still usable yet.
Again, when you use your line of reasoning, how can you justify digging through people's trash for TVs and VCRs or old Stereo Equipment to take home with you to fix up, when technically in some states picking through other people's garbage is illegal when you're caught, but of course we all know that its not enforceable so people do it anyways! So I think you're being the proberbial pot that called the kettle black!
