Ur 100% right about tony. In real life, tony wouldn’t have much respect due to his unprofessional hot headed nature, as well as the fact that he basically resorted to murder whenever a conflict came up. Not to mention that he sponsored his junkie nephew, assaulted made men ( mike palmice, ralph cifferetto), and saw a therapist. The sopranos was a gr8 show, but so inaccurate.
If you really think others have not done that in real life and still commanded, respectfully or not, then your outa your mind Wrong.
