if he did not like you he was against it, you brought him money and kept your mouth shut he was for it. everyone around him for decades sold drugs on a major scale..if he was that feared or that respected would his own brothers sell heroin..
Gotti loved money so if his men sell drugs and he get his cut, he was happy. Gotti insulted Ruggero because with his mouth put gotti in trouble with castellano.
that was a problem because he talked so crazy on phones, but he really was put on the spot when ang. and mickey boy screwed up killing casso..ang was in 100 percent o.k. after paul was killed, no issue with ang.
Gotti had no policy against drug dealing...he didn't care. His whole crew was dealing Do you honestly think he had no idea? Lets be honest a big reason his crew started doing it was because Gotti was a degenerate gambler who was pissing away their earnings
they were not in the drug biz.. frank did take money from drug guys very early on. butter got in trouble with paul for taking drug money and was told to go to fla. and dont come back

Even getting caught doesn't matter much. Guys get busted all the time for selling drugs and aren't killed. The real policy is "if you sell drugs, don't openly acknowledge it so your superiors can't be caught up in a drug conspiracy charge for taking drug money."
