Fan was holding up a Fire Frank sign and thrown over a row of seats for holding a sign, what do you guys think?

pretty bad, maybe not as bad as that dude's haircut though.

It didn't look too physical, but that is the first time I've seen someone removed from a game for a message on a sign.
They must have let the kid in the arena with the sign in the first place, yes? Seems a little heavy-handed for a "fire Frank" sign.

Where are all the people complaining about Oden playing pick up ball now that Adam Morrison is getting into fights with NJ security?

It looks more like the kid fell over the seat, he was in that crappy folding chair isle that some arenas have so it wouldn't surprise me if that were the case.
In any case he was on Nets property, they can pretty much do whatever they want to him if they feel like he was causing a ruckus.
I wish they would do that to annoying people in move theaters.

He fell over the seat
Talk about making something out of nothing
Not to mention, a better sign would have been "Get Rid of the Toupee, Marv!"

The guy fell. You can question whether or not he should be removed for having the sign, but don't act like security tossed the guy over the chair.
