In a bizarre display of what can only be described as inexplicable, unwarranted apoplexy, the crew leader of an offshoot of the recently removed Guinta faction - operating out of Philadelphia - has offered us another talking point in recent days. Grave pissing.

Once the ultimate sin in our line of work, grave pissing is now apparently something leaders such as LouisFratto feel emboldened to flippantly offer up as a spiteful eulogy to a stranger he had zero interaction with prior to this graveside insult.

Whilst I grant you listener, this may be a relatively low level example of the sin, but any mitigation that excuse may provide is conversely opposed by the rank and purported experience of the self-professed “old school” man in question.

Whilst the nature of discussions raised by EgonSpengler may have been deemed distasteful in some corners, he had no qualms voicing his opinion, and sought the protection of no family nor any divine entity when he did so. There was nothing to prevent a hitman ending his discussion in the most brutal way imaginable, at any time during his short life. A coward he was not. He faced the public unprotected, broached a subject he was well aware would cause his ostracism, and furthermore - alluded to parts of his lineage during some of his speeches.

Lil Louis, on the other hand, had ample opportunity to refute, discuss and debate the allegations discussed, yet chose to cower behind his desk saying absolutely nothing until the body of Spengler was chilling in the morgue - at which time Louey Pooey found the courage to disrupt the memorial service with his shrill, vacuous insults. Are these really the actions of a man of honor, or is this yet another example of “do what we say, just don’t judge us by our own standards” from a regime intent on being remembered as the most incompetent in living memory?

Despite offering an olive branch to the perpetrator, Egon’s kin was further insulted in yet another instance of lack of respect for the dead, whilst lying under a tombstone bearing the name Jenovese.

A pattern appears to be forming for the Philadelphian running the Famiglia Di Fantasmi crew.

Surely this sort of dishonorable behaviour wouldn’t be sanctioned by the acting Chairman of the city? Right? Listener, it saddens me to report that yes - Cadhla of Kharon fame during the Disorder era, else-wise know as the LadyFighter line appears to condone the behaviour because, despite being advised of the situation at hand, no action has been taken to correct the behaviour of her captain at the time of this address, nor have I even received acknowledgment of the telegram delivered to the Chairman-in-waiting nearly 48 hours earlier. Sadly, the unlubed dildo of consequence remains unsullied for the time being.

My question, folks, is when did grave pissing become socially acceptable for god fearing businessmen such as us? No longer the sole preserve of the uninitiated and the uncrewed, but leaders and their superiors in Our Thing too? When did our standards slip? Is it the fault of Spike and Joe for sullying the integrity we once built La Cosa Nostra upon? We once stood on the shoulders of giants, now the ‘giants’ we rely on for guidance offer pitiful excuses for the sub-standard behaviour that has become rampant on our shores, whilst the men in question vacation in the old country, growing fat on an unreasonably high take of the share their serfs provide from toiling under the illusion of protection from these chumps.

Dear listener, if this is what we’ve become, today is a dark day for our world. The very foundations we build our reputation upon is under attack - eroding beneath our very feet. Can we be saved from ourselves, or has the ship sailed? You tell me.

Kudos on managing to join in the discussion instead of hiding this time Louis. Crew leaders grave pissing though, that’s the subject… not whether or not my tears are salty. Do try to keep up, lil buddy.

Are you done throwing your fit or should I hand you more tissues?  You, lil civilian, have a lot to learn about respect and maybe have some fear for your own life.  Instead of complaining all the time in the streets, which I must say is more annoying than helpful, how about you actually join a crew and show us how it's done....

Suddenly it becomes clear why you didn’t join the discussion previously. Your talking points are as one dimensional as you insults. Again - crew leaders grave pissing. Is this something we should be condoning?

What I said was hardly grave pissing.  Teetering on the edge, sure i'll give you that but what you're crying about is hardly worth crying about, civilian.

It’s a slippery slope champ. What you condone today snowballs into tomorrow. At what point do we curb the behaviour, if not immediately? Insulting the dead has no place in our thing, and it never has. For a crew leader not to know this shows a startling lack of awareness.

I guess my question is, why should I have respect for someone if they can't even respect how lowly they are on the totem pole in the streets and disrespect an upper structure of a crew?

It’s not *me* you’re disrespecting, it’s tradition; knowing the boundaries we set for ourselves… so in essence, you disrespect yourself when you fail to respect the covenants that guide us.

Meanwhile, this man is so obsessed with Kuku he's at his funeral dropping blowjob references to the corpse. This preoccupation is unhealthy. 

First we had Transistor mistaking rigor mortis as an invitation to fellate the dead, now we have a TMNT obsessed gorilla beating it’s meaty chest in a vain attempt to direct traffic towards a corner of the zoo flogging cheap tat. The LilPeep effect of glamorising deeply uncool, wooden clogs with a business suit type behaviour seems to be contagious. When will medical science develop a cure for this centre parted hair phenomenon? I think we all hope and pray it comes soon.
