italians

The ones who discovered your America. And built your railwais. And told you how to fight organized crime (successfully).
We like cooking, is a way to say how much you love and respect who will get the meal. We don't wear gold. We CARE family, women, and children.
We have mafia, but not like yours. Italian Mafia is born like an instituction in rural zones out of the "arm of the law". If two men got a problem, they asked for the judgement of a "man of honour" who had interests different from theirs so he was super-partes.
Now is a criminal association, we fight it and often it costs life to men and their family. So please stop thinking italians are into mafia. Or if you like start thinking that our mafia, the one we ALL are into, is a proud example of fraternity. We all do our best to make a favour to everyone asking for.

"Una mano lava l'altra, ed entrambe lavano la faccia"

A Hand washes the other, and together wash the face. You help me, I help you, and together we will get better!
