Guys, it’s a comic. It was also a federal crime, so that should be the FBI, right? The wording on the tags was changed some years ago - it originally just said it was a crime to remove the tag - didn’t spell out who, which is why there were so many old jokes about it. Finally, it was re-worded to clear that up. The tag was not supposed to be removed before the consumer purchase, so the customer knew what was in the mattress.

Actually, it’s the manufacturer who is not supposed to remove the tag.
The cop must have it in for poor ol’ Dave.

Why do people think it is a problem for the owner to remove the tag? Haven’t they ever READ the bleeep things?

randayn, if the manufacturer put the tag there to begin with, why would they remove it?

“Warning, there is a policeman outside your window waiting for the moment you rip off this tag.”
