I wouldn't even want to make eye contact with one, let alone infiltrate them as an undercover cop. What they did to people who owed a little bit of dough was bad enough. Imagine them finding a cop.

@rickjames8317

Perhaps. Maybe he admits to, omits, or makes up details that suit the story that he's telling at the moment. In his line of work, he had to be a professional liar. I think that it's hard to discern the line between fact and fiction with anyone who participated in what he did.

I wonder why they didn’t show Sunny Black, with pigeons in the movie

I could never be undercover and rat out the mob especially if I hung out with them for six years, I couldn’t do that job I would say fire me before I do that job.

I am no criminal mastermind but if I were, would never engage anyone. This tactic in place as a rule, would make it very hard to infiltrate any organization, since it forces them to make the first move... Once they did make an overt attempt you could know to be very careful in what you say or reveal since they made first move... Like Chess I play as white, but I like Black because you know a move ahead that every move you make must first be to look for a way to defend or parry his move and also hide your motive. This is very effective since the White only alerts when any move Black makes is attacking since White expects defensive moves. If the mob did have this tactic to never engage anyone in certain topics. This forces the informant, rats, or any who wish to infiltrate. If anyone outside the org were to ask certain things or imply you would then be able to know we need to force this person to commit a crime or place them in certain position a gov officer or LEA cannot engage in that would taint or make the case void. This would keep any attempts from infiltrating contained to the lowest level to move up will require them to do something that only a real criminal can do, and anyone in that lowest level can now know, and pass on to every level up to the top to add to a list this person... a simple spreadsheet with these to keep aware who is where in the org no one can infiltrate a move up unless they do xyz that way anyone person who is not who they claim has no way to enter without having done a crime that a LEA cannot be part in. Plenty of crimes they cannot be party in harm no one and simple to setup that would have made the old Mob org intact today. Today the Mob still exist but they now are more using a leverage or blackmail to make money and this is just a chain of power with the top levels making all the money and since this leverage or blackmail might be known to or in others keep. Murdering to move up or a war like old school was the main reason all the violence and murder was about. Now it is what you know and who did something very few know at first but once it is in play it gets around in that circle.. Most industry systems are built in this manner. Someone with power fucks up and someone in the system leverage that to exploit it to enrich or help the rest. Most real crimes like murder are coverups and the ones that are able to cover it up are corrupt local gov who then pass this on to the real industry and they then have a leverage over the local gov who make a small change in the official record that the crime is unsolvable or covered up as something else. You can read between the lines and if you pay attention can see the ways they signal in public content to keep everyone in line. I see this a lot.. and most all power and fame is not without some under the surface thing that each level must pass to gain access to their circles... and its not a one clear system its real power thou is one single circle that hold the absolute power that make all the money and make the rules. If this system were described by labels, I would say it is named Greed, Vanity, Gluttony, Hate, Envy, lust... lol

That shot before we see the limo going behind the Stemmons sign went into the street at the Southwest corner of Elm and Houston . . some say. They point out the little girl who was skipping along and who suddenly stops and turns to look East, and they say that shot kicked up debris. It could have originated from the West or the North. Some believe it went through the Stemmons sign, which would be a poorly executed shot. The blur evidence in the Z film isn't so precise as to differentiate between a single shot and two shots at very close synchronization. I don't recall how many people recalled hearing a shot, then two shots in close succession. Who knows, maybe another look would show that . . .
