"Democracy manifest!" 😂 Is this one of the best memes of all time? 🤔 Jack Karlson became popular in 2009 when a 1991 news tape of his arrest at a Chinese restaurant in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley was posted online. Karlson was suspected of using a stolen credit card, but he always claimed it was a case of misidentification. Karlson passed away earlier this year at the age of 82 😢 But we'll never forget this incredible clip! #DemocracyManifest #SucculentChineseMeal #Funny #Meme | JOE.ie
