Growing up Gotti
More Mobster value glorification.

It started with the honor that was afforded to Gotti in his funeral.

Does this serve as a hint as to who one facet of our controllers are?

In Godfather II they said "we could buy our own president".

Why else are we, as a culture, being steered into accepting and essentially respecting violent criminals?

1. Saw a commercial for it last night
Don't think I'll be wasting time watching some Gotti grandkid bitching about his sibling stealing his hair gel. This has to be a new low.

2. Equally disgusted
If they were doing some kind of public service with the show that would be different. But a show glorifying the mob life is just another sign of how bad television has gotten.
