This has to be said every once in a while, without "rats" we would know jack sh*t about the mob, but of course i dont know if you were ever involved in the life in which case i guess you would know some stuff.

Hill's locked up episode is on natgeo right now. I enjoy it.

Henry was involved in a killing, but didn't kill the guy himself. I think it will be a while before God lets him into Heaven, but he will get there, even with the drug use and all the drinking he did. Yes, he helped other Luchese mobsters beat up guys that didn't pay up or disrespected them, but that was many years ago. I think Henry was a believer too!!!!!

As for Jimmy Burke, it would be very, very suprising if he's in Heaven.

Hill admitted to killing 3.

Are you sure there was two others???

My favorite line in Goodfellas is "Do you think I'm funny? You think I'm a clown?"

R.I.P. Henry!!!see you on the other side...

Who did he kill? I always thought he didn't kill anyone. He was around a murder or two but it was always my assumption that he didn't kill anyone. He never admitted to any. Unless you count Howard Stern show when he was blasted and he told a guy he killed someone with an ice pick but that was just bull shit.

Certainly had an interesting life.

That would be funny if he did kill a few people joked about drunkenly on howard stern and the feds just ignored it because they he has a history of lieing. But then again the FBI's Motto is whatever Lead No Matter How Crazy It Might Be, They Have To Follow IT Up.

who cares about knowing anything about the mob a rat is what ruins it. it doesnt even have anything to do with just the mob (being a rat) it shows the type of coward back stabber you are, ya know what i mean?

I watched the documentarys and interviews on him i enjoyed them but hes still a no good rat.

I doubt he'd meet St Peters criteria! LMAO

Who cares about knowing anything about the mob? Why are you watching docs? If you want to choose life in jail/death by who knows what over having your life to live, be by guest. On top of all that what oath did Henry break? He made it to 69 when he could have died any day after he walked into.that cab stand. Say what you want about him cause i know im not changing your mind but Henry is the one who made the choices that kept him free and alive, dont see how you could fault him for that.

Exactly I have no idea why people hate on rats me and everybody on this forum will probably never know the feeling being backed into a corner like that step left and don't rat and be killed or spend life in prison I'm pretty sure we would all take a deal. Plus who cares if they broke an oath the oath they pledge is an oath to murder, drugs and scam people. I give praise to guys who want to help put the mafia away but the only problem I have with govt informants is the govt goes to easy on them the majority of informants will get kicked out of witsec or go back to prison the govt should make so they really have to change their ways before giving them leniency

Buddy i would never stab my brothers in the back and betray a promise i made to myself and brothers to save my own back. Nobody "hates" on rats, nobody likes them, or wants to hang out with them or be friends. a rat isnt the pure fact of "ratting" its just betrayal and a coward move. forget about it

I watch docs because i like to, and when did henry get pinched when he was how old? already in his older ages not like he was 20 or 30 he did what he did, now pay the crime. A STAND UP GUY IS THE BEST THING YOU CAN BE 100% REAL AND HENRY HILL WASNT A STAND UP GUY

maybe its different for you, but i grew up to never tell on people or my brothers and sisters, or never tell on kids in school it was just kind of an un written rule. its just a thing you dont do no matter the circumstances

Well for starters i never said i agreed with the fact of ratting and liked rats, what im saying is its not up to us users on a computer forum to say that there cowards because we are never going to be backed into a corner like that.Obviously if i was in the mafia I would't like rats but the whole honor thing you tried to give a speech on proved my point you're a MOBFANBOY and GLAMOURIZE THE MAFIA thats the problem with people like you that are obssessed with somehow becoming a mobster and you can't draw the distinction between the real mob and the movies. You say i would never rat on my brothers and promise to my brothers this proves the exact point in the real life mafia the guys aren't brothers they stab eachother in the back and break the rules all the time, they have affairs with eachother's wives, they sell drugs and pills to kids, they put women into prostitution,they rat on eachother and they are all paranoid of eachother out of the fear that one of them may rat on them.

The majority of guys don't rat because they are cowards, they rat because thats the only choice they have because they'll be killed or they are looking at stiff prison sentence. You can say all you want that you would never rat but if you were 35 or 40 years old looking at a life sentence you probably would

I think their point is that you never know until you're faced with something. Not ratting out your classmates for peeking at your homework is a lot different than looking at life in prison or death in the streets as an adult.

It's one thing for a wiseguy who has lived the life to adopt a "rats need to die" attitude, or if you're a family member who has lost someone to jail. But when you're just a mob-watcher on an Internet board, you really don't know what it feels like to be faced with such things.

So don't get mad, but how old are you? I'm guessing you're still a very young guy. Your outlook may change when you get older .

Haha.. I'm an OG!! I'm an OG BABY!! Where Brooklyn AT!!

Pfft. Selfish lowlifes cutting self interested deals to screw other lowlifes. I don't see a difference between putting a bullet in someone to stay out of jail or cutting a deal.

None of these people have honor. The 'rats' are just the most open about it.

Well put.

I guess you have an Uncle Nino as well.

Hey, Dicknose learned how to use the quote feature .

Old Henry getting some grief!!

Surely somebody somewhere must be mourning him??

His bartender.

I doubt it, i bet he never paid his bill

mob fanboy? glamoraize the mob? im not gona dignify myself to you, but you gotta be drinking while typing, you dont know me so dont act like you do. losing family to a rat will maake you hate them ok.

If the mafia had this honour you so want them to have, then they'd be stronger and harder to beat.

By ratting out each other, they are doing the United States a favour.

Just be glad there are rats, like Valachi, you Americans knew sweet f all before he exposed the mob.

Hey well at least " I Pay My Tax"
