What does one have to do with the other?
Not seeing the connection?

So only guys that were physically weak would be snitching?

. I think you misunderstood. I meant that even though a mobster has a reputation as a tough/feared guy doesn’t mean there is no chance he could ever be an informer. I’m just speaking in hypothetical terms. I’m sure if you asked every mobster in the 70’s or 80’s if they think it were possible Scarpa could ever be a rat they would say “Hell No!”

The whole dry snitching situation is such a grey area.

If a guy gives almost useless info to the FBI is he a RAT?

Here is an anology the Sopranos
Tony gave that FBI agent B.S. Info on those middle eastern guys,

Was Tony. RAT?

When I say Tony, I mean if a LCN, guy on the street did what Tony did.

That’s what a lot of those informants back then were doing.

Really almost like gossiping

There was no cooperation deal signed.

I don't believe Neil was a rat. Although it would've been a funny sight to see Neil live a little longer to testify against John Gotti
