Police in Hammond, Indiana banned the appearance of a hologram at a hip-hop festival. (Police Officer: We don't cotton to that science fiction popular music mash-up malarkey.) Cops claimed the holographic projection of the rapper chief keep was an "unacceptable role model" that "posed a significant public safety risk." (Rapper: But... I wouldn't actually be there...?) This prompts the question: if the hologram got out of control. Couldn't they just take it? (Man: You coulda unplugged "me") Also, is there an even more ethereal projection format that would satisfy the cop censors? (Man 1: Now he wants to appear in astral mode)(Man 2: Still too close!)
