Good stuff, Guinea Guarino!!!
I appreciate your honesty - today's society has made it so that many people get real touchy on the subject of racism; feeling so guilty at even discussing it that when someone dares to blurt out the simple facts (racism IS passed on from generation to generation), they are maligned. Others then feel obligated to then come out and state they oppose racism. It's the same pattern, it happense every time.

I don't think this thread is at all out of place in the Organized Crime forum. Italians, as well as Irish, Chinese, Jews and other nationalities have all been victims of racism in the past, and it IS human nature and accurate that the mafia is depicted as racist in movies, not just the old ones, either. Movies as recent as The Godfater.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
