Why is it a crime..?

..to sell a stock

They are shareholders aswell.

Being a shareholder doesn't mean you buy whenever you feel like and hold on forever.
Not paying attention to the market, figuring it should only go up because you're a shareholder.
Esspecially if it's common stock. In a speculative company no less.

The idea is to buy low and sell high. To make cash.

If you're in the red it's because you bought at a bad time.
This stock has gone up over 1000% in the passed 2-3 years.

Insiders are allowed to trade and take profit just like anyone else.
It's only smart to do so.
They have restictions and have to file when they buy or sell, which automatically put them at a dis-advantage.
We have no such restrictions.

Ever hear the saying,
Bulls and Bears make money, Pigs get slaughtered
Buying is only half of the game
