Falling Down, Italian style

Genovese family capo (and 20 others) indicted:

Matty the Horse has been around so long, nobody in law enforcement is sure how he got his nickname — so FBI agents asked him yesterday. "I have had it since I'm a kid," he said...."When they went to Matty's house he obviously had been asleep in an easy chair and the credits were just rolling up on the Godfather Part III," said a federal law-enforcement official.
It's a knee slapper, this article. That last part is the funniest, and clearly evidence of his innocence, as no self-respecting mafia boss would be caught dead watching number three, which is so awful that it's a miracle no one ordered a hit on Sofia Coppola (unfortunate, too, as it would've saved us from Lost in Translation).

With regard to Ianniello and the rest of those cafones, I hope they nail those sons-o-bitches to the wall. As impossible as it would be, I'd like to see every last member of every crime family rounded up.

As a Brooklyn-Eyetalian American, I cannot find the words to describe the knifey-knifey-kill-kill feeling that overwhelms me when someone makes some allusion to my family being mobbed up. "Ha ha!" they say. "Your family's from Brooklyn and you have an Italian surname and your one cousin works in sanitation and your other cousin's a 'contractor.' Are you guys mafia? HA HA HA HA HA."

Yes, Ha ha ha ha.

Fuck you. Do I ask you if everyone in your family is a drunk with a tiny dick? Do I ask you if you fuck through a sheet? Do I ask if your parents run a laundry? Do I ask you if your older brothers sell drugs, and if so could they sell me some drugs, and if not could they tell me where to get drugs, oh and also I really liked that Raekwon album?

Fuck you. And fuck Victoria Gotti, and her finoccio offspring, for glamorizing this despicable lifestyle. And fuck whoever at HBO decided that marketing Sopranos-themed cookbooks, t-shirts, &c, was a nice idea. And fuck you, you faccia di stronzo Brooklyn-Eyetalian American assholes who BUY that shit. I don't know what's worse, actual Brooklyn mafia types, or the douchebags who *pretend* to be.

[Edited to add: Oh, and fuck the Daily News in their five-part-series-hole.]

Whew! That felt great.

Holy shit, that's beautiful ... and pretty much everything I've always wanted to throw back in the faces of every strunz who's had the effrontery to ask me the same thing. God bless you, Dana.

Vafammucca a te e a soreta ca stravacca troia pijan'culo a tutti i mafiosi finti facciemmerda.

When I moved in this country, the USofA in the early, very early '90, the mafia back home was bombing the shit out of Italy, many judges and journalists died, many cops, many innocents too. Talking about terrorism... The Army was deployed in Silcily and Calabria to help the State Police and the Carabinieri. It was horrible. I never forget the day the Mafia killed Judge Falcone, a great hero of a forgotten Italy.
I hate people that talk about mafia like a fictional thing. I hate the glamafia of these facciemerda (shit-heads) that they think they are italians they know two words of it.
I always hated it. so yes Dana, fuck them!
