I can tell you right here, right now, I'm not doing life for some organization. My mother, yes. The mob today..no chance. Doing a couple months will wear you out. What Skinny said up above is on point- the stress of ALWAYS keeping your guard up wears you down. Everything is race based. If I'm looking at life for killing some dude I don't know because I was ordered to kill him by some 'boss' I don't know. Nope. I would stand on the highest chair and sing louder than Paveratti.

Then why did you pledge loyalty to that organization if you never intended to uphold it?
This....If a guy gets a button, wants it, he knows the consequences, the risks--and the possible reward. A real man takes enters into that life taking those risks and accepting them.
Say whatever you want about LCN, wiseguys, the nature of it all, good or evil, but there is some honor in a guy willing to do life in jail, rather than sell out his friends.
