Really??
And what criminal code is burning coal in violation of?
Please cite the specific law prohibiting the burning of coal.
I'm waiting, ohh there is NO law prohibiting the burning of coal. There are plenty of regulations regarding the burning of coal, but just because you don't like it, it is NOT CRIMINAL.

I think that the poster was using the word criminal in the sense of common usage, which translates to 'it should be a crime'. It is used in a funny way, like saying "that cake is so good it should be criminal" or in a more serious note, saying "the way that that person treats their family is criminal", it isn't a literal claim.
