AND BY USING THIS SYSTEM, WE WILL DRASTICALLY REDUCE THEFT.

THAT'S THE DUMBEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD.

NO ONE CAN STOP THEFT EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD I SAID WE WOULD REDUCE IT, NOT ELIMINATE IT. AND ONLY FOR OUR OWN PRODUCTS.

SO, IN OTHER WORDS, IT WON'T WORK.

WORKS TO REDUCE THEFT.

BUT YOU ADMIT THERE WILL STILL BE THEFT.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU????

HEY, I'M NOT THE ONE WHO IS IN FAVOR OF THEFT.
