No, they're not trying to prevent anyone from doing anything but
stealing. What grocer has any control over the veggies in other
grocers' markets? None.

What they're trying to do is stop you from breaking open a cucumber,
stealing all the seeds, and planting your own crop, without paying the
grocer for his original cucumber.

How is that NOT stealing? Please explain it in terms other than "I want
free music."
