Now I am not sure how "Victoria" the son of Jon Gotti got all her money but I am willing to take a wild guess. How is it that we glorify people that created so much misery for so many people.

Does any one else have a problem with this...


P.S. Those Kids are out of control, have very little respect for people.

She married her childhood sweetheart, Carmine Agnello, who runs a scrap metal business that makes $30 million a year.

The mob has been the subject of Hollywood aggrandizement almost from the point where movies first started being made, The Godfather series being the peak. And the mob has been fiction fodder forever.

People understand these are psychotic killers. That doesn't mean they can't be fascinated with glimpsing into their lives, as with movies like Casino.

Great link fotze.

I watched that greasy show last night and I gotta say I've never seen such an annoying bunch of sleazy little punks. The mom is even worse, ranting about "deadlines deadlines" like she's Bob Woodward or something, and trusting her own children to a couple of half-witted "chaperones" she must have picked up off the street.

The people who whine about "the downfall of civilization" are going to have a heyday with this one. It's really a disgrace.
