      Sammy actually has a legit mob legacy he left behind .....Sammy is the last remaining true mafioso ....as where Michael was a college kid who happened to have a step dad that was an underboss in a family . Michael owes his status in the mafia to his father 100percent ....he never earned his bones .

    • @TreadTalk247
      @TreadTalk247 Рік тому +38

      Respectfully I don’t know anyone who can say he never earned his bones! He made a lot of money for family he represented and that he was a part of, some do it through blood, some do it through business but definitely he earned his bones! Just because he didn’t break bones doesn’t mean he didn’t break bread with the correct people in the family and earn a lot of bread in the process! Was he a clean cut college kid, yes Sir….was Sammy a street raised hard worker….absolutely! But they were both important to their families! Just as a CEO is important to a business, so is the mid level manager that works under him/her!

Show us a tape and timestamp where john says, I want Sammy killed or, I want a hit put out on sammy or, im going to set Sammy up to take the fall for the prior hits I spoke about when my office was bugged. It doesn't exist. Nor do official gov documents proclaiming that. You're merely taking sammys word for it, that john said those things. His excuse for them not existing? They were redacted. That's a lie. Sammy also went in on a profer with his lawyer before formal charges were filed against john..and the 37 others Sammy assisted in getting federal convictions on.. All thanks to his cooperation as a star witness. You're taking the word of him. That's not based in facts. Again, show us anything that says that other then just coming from Sammy..il wait and hold my breath.. And eventually die before you ever show that because it don't exist. Only in sammys mind and you're taking his word on it. Its that simple. Say what you want, you're entitled to your opinions like anyone else. But don't misconstrue them as facts or.anything remotely based on factual evidence. It really is that simple.

Sammy brought the entire family down based off of something he said happened that, doesn't even exist on tape or anywhere on official gov documents, other then his word. You also have to remember, he didn't just bring john down.. That's merely 1 man out of 38 convictions Sammy assisted on as a star witness for the gov. Those are facts. They can not be disputed. You may have your opinions but you may not dispute facts...unless you want to Sound like someone who has absolutely no idea about what they're saying or are such a huge fan of Sammy, they grift for him for free. Again, its that simple. Its not meant to be offensive. Just facts.

    Sammy is the only guy that could kill half his crew and friends, a 17 year old innocent kid, kill his Boss, then rat out the next Boss and 40+ other guys then throw around words like "betrayal" and "respect". The last guy that should talk about those things with a straight face. Secondly, Sammy's tough guy act is laughable. He was only tough when he was pretending to be your friend then having you shot in the back of the head, the second he actually had to prove he was tough and accept his punishment like a man he tucked it between his legs and ratted out absolutely every single person he could even the Juror he bribed. Michael was FAR more successful in that life. Michael used that life whereas that life used Sammy and you can tell how weak and inferior Sammy feels sitting with him when he tries to act like he'll beat him up and all that garbage. Michael isn't someone you're walking in to a room so give it up.

      So when you agree to the life you agree if you take advantage of, stray away from or go against the mafia.. you will be killed. It's your agreement when they burn the saint in your hand. Sammy was doing his job. That's why Michael never says shit about his killings be "illegitimate" cause he knows they are "legit" for the life. Sammy loved and respected the life so much he had to take those people down because he and the rest of the mafia agreed to it.
      Sammy isnt a rat either. He would have been killed in prison if he were.. He ratted on a guy who was going to set him up to take the fall and he said "fuck you" this is on all of us. Gotti sat there and was being the little prick he was by thinking he could lay blame on others and not expect blow back. Sammy cooperated not because he wanted to but because he was betrayed and knew the life had changed. If Gotti was like Sonney, Sammy would still in jail on a life sentence.

    I honestly feel like Sammy is jealous of Michael.
    First of all, Michael, unlike Sammy, didn't join the witness protection program. Hence, some things, if he admits them, can still get him interrogated and punished.
    Secondly, the fact Sammy wears his murders as a badge of honour shows he's a pretty low individual.
    And finally... Sammy using the excuse of "We bomb countries" to justify his actions shows he's a messed up individual. Any rapist and maniac can use it.
    Michael always carried himself with a lot of class... and managed to get out that life. That drives Sammy mad because he could never do that.

Micheal couldn't excel even if he wanted to, Sammy had the power and Micheal didn't even with all the money he had. Just look the FBI tapes and transcript, Sammy was no jk.

      If Sammy says that MANY other made members questioned Michael's qualifications then that's something that we have to consider.
      I do agree that Micheal is doing what he has to here to avoid legal trouble but again Sammy isn't bringing this up because it's a hunch, he's bringing it up because it was a big deal amongst the families that Micheal got made before other guys that had been waiting...
      It's real easy for Micheal to say that he has no immunity but that is also a convenient way to dodge the question that he could answer off camera so nobody gets embarrassed on camera or admits to crime on camera .

    Sammy came up in the ranks as a foot soldier then a notorious hitman to finally being on of the most infamous capos in mob history. He had to show his muscle every step of the way through extortion, or violence “Doing the dirty work” to earn his stripes.
    Micheal had a direct connection to “the life” through his bloodline, his father was practically La Costa Nostra royalty, but that wasn’t what punched his ticket in. His mental prowess and money making schemes are what turned him into a made man, in due time he would prove to be every bit of that by pulling off on the biggest racketeering schemes in mafia history and getting away with it!
    Needless to say they are two sides of the same coin. Two lifestyles of the same life, in the mob you were either a killer, an earner or both. When you look at their history, you’ll see that very same duality.
    Violence, intimidation, power and ambition is what created the empire we romanticize as “The Mafia”. These individuals are proof of that.

    At the end of the day, There will always be somebody in a group, gang, cartel or mafia who will end up snitching on everyone else to save his own ass and/or protect his own family. No matter how long they’ve been riding or working together. There will always be one or more who will end up opening his mouth. That’s why I strongly feel that before you end up having to make that choice of it ever came down to it, To think about even starting if you are that type of person. We all have a choice to make before and after and everyone is responsible for their own life at the end of the day.

      Sammy is an out and out street guy. He had to be this way to get any respect, it’s a tough life. To be as feared as he was in their life you had to do extreme acts of violence. But he was also a business man as well, this man owned all construction in Newyork and numerous other legit businesses plus illegal ones too. He was a huge earner and killer and that’s two traits you want in their life. Michael is intelligent and charismatic and the truth is he got made only because of his father. He didn’t earn respect on the street like sammy but he was a business guy and earned respect that way, he was a top earner so in other words he was untouchable. It’s two separate worlds but in the same mafia universe.

And followed by saying he's not going to say something that will put him in jail because he had no immunity (Unlike Sammy because he's an actual informant/rat.) Bottomline, Michael is just as capable of killing Sammy as Sammy is of killing Michael. Michael is NOT scared of Sammy and its clear by the way he speaks to Sammy and never once backs down from him.
