Back in 1957 in was the mafia that had the power over people's life and death. The got off the hook in 99% of the cases. So why worrying about their "rights being hurt" if in ONE case not everything went as they planned? Don't forget, it was 1957, not today, you still had problems like racial segregation for example, yet you insist that the "rights" of MOB BOSSES was the priority n.1 even back then?

Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo:

1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down."

2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
