Victoria steps up once again.  She wants to address the Mafioso who seems to lack or disregards the values that has been incorporated into her lifestyle. 

Mr. Ragnarok all I have to say is that my former Boss would really have to look at you very carefully.

Being a backstabbing unloyal cunt is a normal way of life around here.

By no means am I trying to subject you to my values.

Please excuse the fact where I come from La Cosa Nostra means something.  Excuse the fact that we abide by a code of conduct and code of silence.  Excuse the fact that we tried to maintain an organized crime group where respect, loyalty and honesty are of the utmost importance.  Please excuse the fact where I come from the Bosses worked together would have equal say and voted on important matters and solve disputes between families.

Victoria leaves thinking with all these delusional wannabe Mafioso’s around here a 9-5 pencil pusher doesn’t sound that bad.

I don't think so. I think it's pretty much the opposite of what we are supposed to be for the most part.

Honesty? Democratic? Equal say?

Taking a break from his gratuitous thievery and off beat schemes to make money, Janky wandered his way into the "discussion". Lighting a cigarette to center his thoughts before speaking them.

Why are we all trying to sugar coat what we truly are again? Are we afraid of the way our peers will view us if we just admit that at our very core we're nothing but murderous thieves? No matter how much honor and respect you walk with, this is the true nature of this thing of ours. Might as well embrace it.

Excuse the fact that we tried to maintain an organized crime group where respect, loyalty and honesty are of the utmost importance.

Then why are you out here lashing out at someone for having different views that he shared with you? Wouldn't that fall under the category of respect? 

I don't think so. I think it's pretty much the opposite of what we are supposed to be for the most part.

Honesty? Democratic? Equal say?

Since when was this thing of ours democratic again? Did I miss a memo?

I wasn't suggesting it didn't. I'm simply stating that I wasn't aware this business was a democracy. From my understanding if my boss tells me to buck on someone, I buck on them. I don't take them to a sit down where we wait on people to take a vote on killing the guy or not.

This is where you and I differ, and I can agree with Prem's metaphorical statement about the seating arrangements. I may be a little old school philosophically speaking when it comes to this business. But I'm not going to take a shot at those who want to make a name for themselves and take over a spot of power. More power to them in fact. I respect a person with the balls to live out their life the way they want. Personally it's not for me though.

Jank takes a drag from his cigarette as he shifts gears. Eyes skimming the civilians sleepwalking their lives away through the streets, resisting the addiction to the adrenaline flow from a clean steal. With another drag the urge is gone and he returns to the conversation at hand.

My bloodline has always tried to impart the wisdom given to us by our ancestors to the fresh blood that has decided to take a venture through the underworld and I know many others who do the same. I don't believe that is the real issue here. I believe the issue is when people lose sight that this first and foremost is a business over anything else. There's that oh so very popular saying around here that comes to mind, 'Just business, nothing personal'.

Mr. Premeir, have you ever heard of family above all?

Have you ever heard of Ship, Shipmate, Self. BlackBetty is the ship, the family are my ship mates, and then i look out for myself. Its Blackbetty above everything, she isn't here to serve us, she is the Godfather, we protect her above anything.

She wants to address the Mafioso who seems to lack or disregards the values that has been incorporated into her lifestyle. 

My man Rag has actual values not the ones you made up to suit yourself.

By no means am I trying to subject you to my values.

Thats good wars happen over crazy shit like that

 Please excuse the fact where I come from the Bosses worked together would have equal say and voted on important matters and solve disputes between families.

Yeah it's called a union thats why we got out of that shit, and got into a life of crime, fuck equal say, voting is for congress, solve disputs with the gun. The gun has the final say, vote who has the most guns. Where you came sounds silly

These shores are so fucking political with old money and vendettas that the new gangster who arrives fresh off the boat with so much potential and the experienced mafiaso are nothing but pawns or perceived as bobble heads 99% of the time. How does this mind set build and maintain our districts?

I think our idea of politics differ my man

I like Victoria. Truer words were never spoken.

She sound stupid

experienced mafiaso are nothing but pawns or perceived as bobble heads 99

Well I mean baby girl, we are in a business where 99% of the time you should be expecting to be played, its the nature of the beast, as my man earlier said, if you hungry sit the fuck down and eat, but protect your neck my man.

Again Victoria has to approach the table.

Then why are you out here lashing out at someone for having different views that he shared with you? Wouldn't that fall under the category of respect? 

Sir JankyyMcDankyy if I may just clarify what I said:

I am not lashing out at anyone I was just sharing an observation.

I just arrived in the city.  Just like everyone else I come with baggage.  My baggage also happens to consist of my values.   I respectfully as possible stated:

By no means am I trying to subject you to my values.

 Again I reiterate that although lowlife peoples my may surface “being a backstabbing unloyal cunt” is not the” normal way of life” where I come from. Being the lady that I am maybe I took offense to this statement.

Victoria steps back thinking enough said.  

It is Miss and we will agree to disagree. I am satisfied with the numbers who do agree.

Tomato, tomatoo. How the numbers who agree with you looking on votes big dawg mcgraw?

 My baggage also happens to consist of my values

Fuck them silly ass values

Victoria steps back thinking enough said.  

You haven't really said much of anything, so good call

Please excuse the fact where I come from La Cosa Nostra means something.  Excuse the fact that we abide by a code of conduct and code of silence.  Excuse the fact that we tried to maintain an organized crime group where respect, loyalty and honesty are of the utmost importance.  Please excuse the fact where I come from the Bosses worked together would have equal say and voted on important matters and solve disputes between families.

You wouldn't call this lashing out? Never mind the remark at Ragnarok because you mistook his advice.

Just because you say "No disrespect intended" does not give you the right to say whatever you feel after, if respect really is as high of a quality to you as you claim it to be.

This is what I was mentioning in my prior statement, you're mixing personal emotions with business. If you want to go anywhere within these streets I highly advise against continuing this type of behavior. You people can sugar coat what we do all you want, the reality is this is a business. A very cold and cruel one at that.

Mr. Ragnarok all I have to say is that my former Boss would really have to look at you very carefully.

He could looked at me very carefully when he/she/it was alive, and the results would have remained the same. My statement stands true over the entire course of this thing of ours life time.  This concept you have that bosses sit down, rub elbows, and make nice isn't a reality that anyone lives in.

Fear and Latin didn't sit down with Curtis to smooth over tensions. They saw Tetley get removed, then they saw an opening to attack Curtis and company. Please, for the sake of this conversation, provide where they sat down and where honorable about any of it? You can't, and you know this. They where in it for themselves.

Moving up to this removal of Detroit, no hands where shaken, no friendly smiles exchanged. Detroit got removed from the map. Well, most of Detroit. Those worthless ship jumping bastards that are still alive, but that is another story.

Please excuse the fact where I come from the Bosses worked together would have equal say and voted on important matters and solve disputes between families.

The only people are an even playing field in terms of 'voting' are the Godfather Chairmen. They hold the weight and the power, the other Godfathers, and acting Godfathers don't hold nearly the weight, nor power. So no, equal say doesn't exist. People can put forth ideas or suggestions, but only the real heads of the table have the power to make it happen.
