One major thing missing in La Cosa Nostra these days is the fear factor, nobody outside of the mob fears crossing them, and nobody within the mob fears turning on it. The days of vicious, bloodthirsty killers are long gone. And please don't give me this shit about laws being tougher these days, hell multiple murderers like Lepke Buchalter and many others from Murder Incorporated went to the electric chair back in the 1940s, and guys like Carmine Galante, Tommy Pitera, and the Gemini Twins are doing or have done tons of time. So if you plan on going on one of those rants about tougher laws, this thread isn't for you.
