What I was really trying to get at was, as many have posted, Tom was cool and calm on the outside. However, I contend that his soul was just as black as Vito's et al. He was just as monstrous despite the fact that he apparently never wielded a gun, garrot, or knife. How many lives did he help to destroy?
That's just how I took it, Olivant. I couldn't agree more. He had no qualms about murder, making him every bit as sociopathic as any other mafioso.
