adderall nowadays is laced (mixed with) meth , fentanyl and other stuff that can kill you and isn’t really supposed to be in it. But legitimate adderall truly is a study/focus pill , its not for everyone if I’m being honest.
Growing up near an area that was run by these men just makes you realize. They didn't bother neighborhoods or general public. You borrow money, you gamble etc etc. Then if you got clipped it was because you decided to put yourself in those situations. If you were regular joe, they did more for neighborhoods than any politican, crooked cop etc..
Shannon B my grandpa grew up in Yonkers New York in the 40s and 50’s he said the same thing. They did a lot for the neighborhoods, if you didn’t pay a debt or whatever they would “handle it”
That’s complete BS! They extorted the hell outta the neighborhoods. The little mom and pops shops barely made a living. There was no honor or respect, people feared these guys.
Does he really need that angle of just holding the camera in his face the whole time? i feel like it would be better to sacrifice some uncomfortably close face shots for a more relaxed and genuine video vibe
When a mob guy says “horrible stuff” then you know human trafficking is really horrible
INFINITY%!!!!!!!
Can I sell a herseys bar
It took a former mafia member for you to know that human trafficking is horrible?
WiskyR6 the point is that even a criminal has some ethics and do not deal with certain crimes. You missed the point!
Older criminals had much more of a respect of what they did and associated with. If you got out of line then you’d be dealt with
Even though it was the mob, i love how they still had set rules. No drugs and do not involve children.
Charles Dinkins Oooh that makes sense. Appreciate you explaining that to me, i never understood what they meant by organized crimes.
Like everywhere else, rules varied and were plastic. The Mob is basically about breaking social rules for money, even their own.
@Charles Dinkins exactly selling drug was seem to risky, not because they didn't want people to get addicted.
