      @@RamsLakersDodgers I like them both and here's my unrequested opinion lol Michael doesn't have as many stories because he was an earner. The mafia used him for his earning talent but he needed people like Sammy to keep earning or some one would of stepped in. The part that bothers me is when Michael acts like he wasn't as bad as the others because he was an earner. The only reason he didn't go as far as Sammy is no one in they're right mind would allow it's bank roll to go to prison for murder or assault. Having taken the oath and not being an earner, he would of killed who they told him to as well so he's no better.

    When Vlad is describing the method of the murders, Franzese looks like he's cringing a bit imagining it, so either knew people it happened to or has seen similar things and isn't completely desensitized to it. Vlad, while he's excitedly reading something he read as the first paragraph in Wikipedia, is completely detached from what he's talking about and it's just this story to him, like a movie, and the reality of what he's describing, the fact that it is something that really happened to real people, obviously isn't as real for him as it is this other guy. It's just this numbers thing, where he's impressed with this 200 kills and wants to hear if he should continue to be impressed or not.

    Vlad has brought up these inflated numbers of murders with Michael several times and gets the same answers every time. He knows that Michael doesn’t really like to talk about murders in general And always gets the same uneasy reaction but continues to try to push him to talk about that stuff. It’s like Vlad forgets what they’ve gone over in previous interviews making him look stupid. He’s just trying to get a video clip that he knows people will click on so he can get the views.

      @moedinyu7172 Год назад

      @Ali Jordan X I'm sure there's a way to beef with 200 people. But "getting the ok" 200 times is nearly unthinkable! It would make WAAAAY more sense, I think, for that number to be reached with the help of doing contract hits. Like all over the country. But beefing and killing 200 guys!?? Naaaaaah!!! Without bein noticed much sooner? I don't think so! But I am no mob expert! But u do have a PhD in Common Sense! So I know for a fact, that if folks knew you'd even killed "just" 100 people!? It'd be hard to get a PHONE CALL from somebody!!! They'd all be deathly afraid of you! And jus like Mike said!! Guys like that don't last long! I'm from a big city as well. The story is true there too! All the "big time", widely known killers get killed, eventually! For the same reasons! They'll either "take it too far". Or they'll actually scare a guy into killin them. Just to have an argument with someone like that, I'd personally, be thinkin about my life!! So more than likely, someone they're attempting to bulky or lean on, will get the "wrong message", and fear for their Natural Lives!!! And figure, "welp! I messed up this time! This guy's gonna KILL me!! May as well get him first!!!"! I'm no "man of the cloth" either. But the good book DOES say it's not very healthy for a man to be, either TOO TOO BAD, or TOO TOO GOOD! Roy DeMeo? Too bad! Bin Laden? Too bad! Martin Luther King Jr? Too good! Ghandi? Too good! All were hunted down and dispatched like animals!!! The criminal life is a certain death! Yet, everyday, there's a new recruit! Waitin to get noticed, and perhaps, drafted! Serve, only to lose their lives! Or livelihoods!

    One of the main reasons demaio was killed was because at the time the big boss Castellano was indicted and on trial for being part of the car-theft ring that demaio was involved in and they were worried that when DeMeo eventually got picked up that he would snitch that was part of the reason they tried to get Gotti's crew to do the hit and God he was a little apprehensive about messing with Roy because he had such a strong team so Castellano got one of his main guys to recruit Anthony senter and Joey Testa and those two were the Gemini twins that you hear about and they were two of dimaio's most trusted guys and they killed him and then went to the Lucchese family until they got busted for murder and they're both in Federal Prison still to this day

      Dicicco didn't recruit the twins. He talked to Gaspipe. Joey had a close friend who was close to Casso and in the Luchesse who acted as an intermediary. If you look at surveillance and who is always around Joey that isn't Anthony, you might figure out who. This comes from Frank Pergola.

      Thank you! I said the same exact thing, it’s like he forgets what they’ve talked about in previous interviews. He should know by now that Michael doesn’t like to talk about murders. I think that Vlad always tries to push that point because he’ll get a good video clip with a sensationalize title that people will click on so he can get the views. Vlad is so used to all these other gang members that he has on that love talking about that sort of stuff because they think it makes them look cool and dangerous. Michael has more class than that , and that’s why I have more respect for him than a lot of these other guys!

    Castellano was still relying on guys like Roy's crew and the Westies to do the murder work for the Gambinos for years. Even though he was a greedy, businessman-minded boss, he was still a ruthless killer as far as ordering hits whenever he felt like it. Castellano even ordered the hit of one of his daughter's boyfriends for making fun of him by comparing him to Frank Perdue as both were in the chicken business. So it's not out of the realm that Castellano was heavily relying on Roy and his crew to take out and dismember bodies all the time until Roy got too hot with the feds and like Micheal said, he was way too much of a wildcard with everything he knew. Roy was so dirty that Castellano always hesitated on inducting him as a made man for all the work he did for the family *precisely because* he was a serial killer-minded guy. There is no way he killed 200 guys, that's ludicrous, but I'm sure it's maybe up to 40-50 which is still a lot of guys.

It’s also not true that everyone of them were out there shooting and killing people.
