I assume most of what draws us here has little to do with the health of mind of these types. Yet the link between mental illness and LCN cries out for notice. Particularly of late.

Give me a nickle for every reference to the sate of mind of even the lowest of soldiers and I got a ton of nickles. Sicko. Crazy. Psyhcho. Nutz. Insane.

What do use as a measuring stick? (Does a guy have to have done some work to even get honorable mention?) What's the difference in say a Roy Demeo and an old man Paruda? A Carneg and a Bull Gravano? A Disimone and a young Galante? The number of hits? The Pleasure Factor? Whether it was business or fun?

Was the guy just a non-feeling cog in the machine, just following orders, or a genuine sick murdering bastard? Or both?
