Like someone here said, they spent a lifetime with mob figures before finally being sworn in, they knew exactly what they were getting into. All of this "I flipped because I realized they were no good" is a bunch of horse shit. Like Salvatore Profaci said, "Goodfellows don't sue goodfellows, goodfellows kill goodfellows." And one last thing, you're not changing my mind on this. They took the oath, they chose to be gangsters, not me.


The Cosa Nostra have rules that wasnt respected like those who said to dont kill relatives of the mobster while the boss break the rules,you can flip because he was the first to dont follow the rules.
Casso and Amuso ordering the Chiodo sister nurder break a law.
Yes,live by the gun and the knife and die by the gun and the knife but the oath is vale if all follow the rules,in the movie on Buscetta,the protagonist said that he take the oath when there was the old cosa nostra and that the Corleonesi dont follow the rule so he isnt a traitor because they broke the oath,not him.
