It was no joke if you lived in the outer boroughs, especially the East Bronx. Spike Lee overdid it in his film, especially the way he portrayed some Italians, but he was correct in that there were dozens upon dozens of us hoping he'd show up. Of course, we were armed like the Israeli army, but that's another story entirely lol.

"Of course we were armed like the Israeli army" lol that cracked me the fuck up PB.

I'll tell you a similar story. I remember the day of the Boston Marathon Bombings. My dad and younger teenage brother were in the city that day and every area of the city was basically shut down to look for the then unknown bastards who did it. Everywhere except two areas: Southie, the Irish neighborhood, and North End, the Italian neighborhood, the latter of which my cousin lives in. So they called him and he invited them up there for the night. And when they got there, there were literally about a dozen guys walking around or sitting in lawn chairs with handguns or concealed pistols. These guys were just aching for the terrorists to step foot in North End. Because the minute he tried his ass was grass.
