The Ten Commandments of the Mafia Started by: Thehawk on Jan 27, '09 02:23
Thehawk, currently a rabble-rouser amongst the people, walked forward. He had a cigarette in one hand, a flask of vodka in the other. He stepped up to the soap box, and speaks to the gathering crowd.


Brothers and sisters of the many families, lend me your ears. I wish to discuss the rules that have currently faded (I expect nobody to follow them, I just decided to bring them up), the authentic 10 Commandments of the Mafioso.


1. No one can present himself directly to another of our friends. There must be a third person to do it.

2. Never look at the wives of friends.

3. Never be seen with cops.

4. Don't go to pubs and clubs.

5. Always being available for Cosa Nostra is a duty - even if your wife's about to give birth.

6. Appointments must absolutely be respected.

7. Wives must be treated with respect.

8. When asked for any information, the answer must be the truth.

9. Money cannot be appropriated if it belongs to others or to other families.

10. People who can't be part of Cosa Nostra: anyone who has a close relative in the police, anyone with a two-timing relative in the family, anyone who behaves badly and doesn't hold to moral values.


You may be sitting around thinking 'How the fuck am I gonna follow those? You honestly think that you, a mere Wise Guy, can push us into these rules? I say, with all my heart, NO! If you can read, you will have noticed I stated that very thing above. Rule 4 only applies to people who are non-drinkers, who meet people elsewhere. Everyone has enjoyed a drink or two, am I right?


COMMENTARY OVER RULE:


1. Make sure that you have a witness watch over your transactions. You know not when the person you deal with could whip out a gun and kill you, or cheat you into the boss giving you a new pair of shoes.


2. Pretty self-explanatory. Do not look in a lustful way after a friend's wife or partner.


3. The boss pays these people off. You have no reason to be there, unless you are a boss. They don't know if you are snitching or not. If the pressure gets hot, guess who dies first.


4. Unnecessary, because that is where most business takes place.


5. When you took the job to work for the family, you knew that there was gonna be times when you couldn't be there. This is the life we live.


6. You've been workin' your ass off for a month to get the promotion. Your buddy got it. Congratulate them. Praise will win you a friend. Disrespect will always gain you enemies.


7. Do not allow your wife to be disrespected. Stand up with her, make sure she is taken care of.


8. We may be lawbreakers, but we are not liars.


9. We may be lawbreakers, but the money that another family has has been earned. Scam it from somebody else.


10. The guidelines for a mobster. Pretty straight forward.

Now, like I said, I expect nobody to follow these.

A lady deserves respect in these streets. You wouldn't let a man look cross-eyed at your mother, would ya? So why let a man look at your wife?

Number five gets canceled out by number seven. I don't know these rules are a little shisty. Who knows, maybe they could help a mafioso, but I have no wife so I'll just go back to watching the clouds make shapes.

*The_avenger opens his mouth to say something in support of what Marisole had said but then decides to keep his peace.*
Damn,that woman said it all.

Guys watch out. I know many would covet my beautiful wife.


I believe in all of these commandments. Minus the bar one.

Louis Gato smiles at these, pleased that people are discussing such a matter


"I try my best at sticking to these in everything I do, they are life to me."

I cant say i agree with number 8, doesnt it kinda go against omerta, which i presume would be the most important rule
Report Post Tip
It means never lie to family.
Report Post Tip
Then make your information more precise. How do you follow rules if the rules aren't explicit to what you're saying?
Report Post Tip
Aftershock, how many times do I need to say it, THESE ARE REAL MAFIOSO RULES!
Report Post Tip
Turns his head to Marisole


Well, talking about the ladies. Of course you have to treat them with respect, that's just something all real men have to. But talking about rule number 4.. that's a real tough one!
Report Post Tip
Thehawk, listen, it's all very very simple and I hope you understand this.

Aftershock throws his left hand up and with his right grabs his crouch shouting.


Bitch! I'm dah bomb like tick tick!

Aftershock runs off to the closest speak easy for more shine.

Son of a...listen, these are rules that the real Mafioso follow. My only goal were was to show people the actual rules and to give commentary over them, not to give someone a set of rules to follow.
Report Post Tip
Hey hey take it easy guys, no need to start a fight here! Thehawk just pays attention to the ethics of the real mobworld, respect to that. But hey! This is our world, not the real mobworld, we decide what happens here! (or there must be real mafiamen playing this game, but I guess they've got better things to do ^^).
