We let a lot of really bad dudes that did really bad things go into witness protection programs when they took down the 5 Families, and in previous prosecutions of Mafia families.

And I don't care. Give them a second chance. As long as they obey the law going forward, fine.

But if it dismantles the criminal network, it's worth it.

Our government has become the biggest organized criminal syndicate in world history. It's even developed a La Familia vibe to it. It's like they learned how to do it from the Mafia and just expanded on it.

And in this case, our government corruption has a much, much, much greater impact on our country and it's people than the Mob ever had.

So I am willing to let a thousand "made men" go free to take down the whole network and fix the underlying problem that has been in place for half a century or more.
