OK...I've been pissed about this confusion bewteen the Sicilian Mafia, and the so-called "American" Mafia, and the lack of respect shown by the Italians for so long. Let me just set the record straight to all the Italian Mafioso wanna-be's out here.
Point 1: If you were born in Italy, you can not be an American Mafioso.
Point 2: If you were born in America, you can not be a Sicilian Mafioso.
Point 3: The Cosa Nostra is NOT the American Mafia. This is bullshit, and I'm tired of these wanna-be greasy goomba mother fuckers trying to take the cover of BOTH. Pick one.
Next time you wanna come into one of our American neighborhoods, and try taking money from our families, and selling drugs to our youth, and then call yourselves "American Mafia" - you better be sure what side of the tracks you came from - and what side you just crossed. Keep acting tough, and stealing from our loved ones, and eventually, you're gonna wind up in a pine box.
