All Mafia movie have lessons. Don't just watch the violence, watch it for the moral of the story. The lessons below are in no particular order:
1. "Don't get high on your own supply" - Montana did! He must have been so stressed out of his mind, by Sosa, spiking him to strike at Tony, and by himself killing his best friend Manny. Don't buy so much coke, that you have to use some of it yourself, thats a strict no no. Don't be high when they send a hit squad round to get you!
2. Don't rise through the ranks too quickly - Montana started out making a little money, as an associate to Lopez. You could tell that he was gonna break the rules when he told his capo, Omar, to f**k off, that he was gonna take the money straight to Lopez. When Montana got too big for his boots, they tried to whack him - Lopez do it properly!!
3. A delusional sense of what gangsterism is - "I want the world, and everything in it", "When you get the money and the power, then you get the girl". If your gonna go for it, just do it, don't dream, don't shoot your mouth off to your friends, it'll end in tears.
4. Don't enrage the boss - Tony keep away from Elvira!, she's Frank girl. Don't do things without the boss's permission, you insubordinated little f****r!. Listen to the rules, make the money, pass it along, treat the higher ups with more respect. And whatever you do, don't be haughty and posturing when the boss gived you a dressing down, like Tony was - "What you worrying about", "F**k Casper Gomez and f**k the f*****g Diaz brothers, I bury those cockroaches".
5. The downfall - it has to come sometime! After all the money, and all the coke, the guns, bullets, cars and homes, expect bad things to happen. You infuriate a more powerful boss, and you get dead.

Thats why the world is so f****d up and why they always get arrested! I doubt that's why the world is fucked up. Even if the "sellers" didn't take their own shit, the customers will be. The world would be just as fucked up. Drugs full stop, cause a lot of bullshit, no matter who's taking who's supply.
The hero and the coward both feel the same thing, but the hero uses his fear, projects it onto his opponent, while the coward runs. It's the same thing, fear, but it's what you do with it that matters. Cus D'Amato

Since when did Tony have a capo?
I'm sorry but Scarface was not a mob movie. It was a movie about a drug cartel. Sure it was based off a 1930's prohibition mob movie, but I didn't "Mafia" at all from scarface aside from his one line;
"Guineas, I don't trust 'em"
And MiniMafiaBoss the Brits have a Mafia. I remember Joe Pistone saying something about doing undercover work to catch some English Wiseguys who he said were "Just as ruthless and greedy as their american counterparts".
And who wants a "Real" mafia anyways?? Criminals are bad.
I will be asking the questions! Because I don't know them!

He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!" So what’s the labyrinth? That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

Mini being an asshole that he is, looking at this I can see that he knows about the rules of the underworld. Was this Mini in on anything?

Ludo, MiniMafiaBoss was banned for posting Copywrited material Oh... well they should uh, have idk a thing on their posts that says that (do they? I don't see it). And I doubt he was EVER in on anything in his life, his post shows pretty much what anyone could find out from a book or even a well thought out movie. get a guy who's stupid enough to post eye-witness accounts (his/her own) of a murder or some racket and then we can worry about people being "in on things".
I will be asking the questions! Because I don't know them!
