Speak for yourself, pal. Fascinating? Yes. In love with that life? Heck no. Believe it or not, unlike many on these boards, there are some of us who have the mentality above a 15 year old. Not to mention a moral compass that actually works. One doesn't have to lose sight of who and what mobsters are to study or talk about them.
Why do you find them so fascinating? There must be something about them that you find appealing. The first time you started reading about this, wasn't there a part of you that thought this stuff was cool? If you truly despised the mob and you found them to be nothing more scumbags and thugs with no moral compass then you probably wouldn't spend all day talking about them, now would you? It doesn't make any sense.
