I would think about joining if i lived in the US and had a drop of italian blood in me i suppose! I dont think i'd have too many qualms about killing someone to make my bones, its business, not personal after all. I reckon its getting to the stage now where you either have to have been close friends with connected guys since childhood, or be an outstanding earner to get made nowadays. Plus theres all the dangers of being ratted out at this day in age as well! I suppose ive got some hope as i found out this week that my great great uncle was involved in one of the glasgow gangs in the 1930s, how cool!
