I'm curious to know the opinion of others on this topic. Is Hollywood biased, for example? I mean, does movies generally portray the mobsters as heroes in some kind a way rather than portraying the damage the Mafia has done to American sociaty? Are they considered as some kind of benefactors in the neighborhoods today? I can understand the fascination and the curiosity we share, surrounding the Mafia but is idolizing or admiring it really warranted? If so, why? This could be a good topic to discuss, but please be civil.
