I highly disagree with this statement. As a business owner we do not markup our products to include a "theft" tax. We markup our products to cover our bottom line, and make a couple bucks as well. If something is stolen, then it is our responsibility to secure our items more, and not pass that loss on to other customers by charging more.

I have no problem what Howdy is doing as he has the right to do it. He has great product and puts alot of time and passion into it. I will fully support him in the future.
