That is sickening. Its a catch 22, really, because the ONLY way the price can come down is to allow importation and that's a whole 'nuther problem in and of itself. Now, they are so ridiculously expensive, that's its probably easier to snatch one than to rob a grocery store or steal a car.

THE OUTLAW
