Yes I did say it's a crime... it is profoundly illegal... my exact words. According to the law, scalping is only "a crime" in 16 states. People can think whatever they want, I think it's stupid and should be illegal worldwide, but that doesn't matter. Gotta put your feelings aside when dealing with things like this, and jumping to extremes like you did is irrational and silly.
