Police search for sign terrorist, claim constructing and displaying signs encouraging "couch-incineration" may to be gateway to Al- Qaeda or Barcalounger-ism or something really scary like that.....

Hopefully AG Holder will deem this a Hate-Crime.
Imagine the angst, the fear experienced by every family who loves their couch, their loveseat or loves to snuggle in their Barcalounger.
Is no couch safe in America any more?!!!!!!!!
Attorney: Holding 'Burn the Couch' Sign 'Not a Criminal Act':
"Is someone who holds up a sign at a game responsible for something that then happens in a city four hours away?

It's the question now being asked following a post on the East Lansing police department's official Facebook page Monday, asking for tips to help identify the man who held up the now arguably infamous 'Burn the Couch' sign seen during Saturday's broadcast of the MSU-OSU title game.

The post, which included a screen capture from the Saturday night broadcast of the game, said ELPD was looking to identify the person holding the sign and added that tips can remain anonymous.

....Connor Swanson, a graduate student at Michigan State, said he believed there was a possibility the sign might've encouraged people to behave the way they did.
"Who's to say if it would've happened if he didn't hold it up (the sign)," Swanson said. 
"I feel like people would've partied, but it wouldn't have been that crazy.""
