Mobster John Gotti given final farewell – I didn’t realize that the mob still exists on a large scale before I read this article. I wonder if all the mobster and crime movies have glorified that lifestyle too much. I would recommend reading about prison life lest you begin to think that there are no consequences of crime.

The reason this article caught my attention is because of today’s Far Side mentions mobs. Pleasant, don’t you think?

In its more horrific method of retribution, the mob will sometimes dress victims as mimes, place them in glass boxes and let them perish slowly in full view of the public.
