Because if they do it against sunny frenzies, they can do it against anybody. So I believe strictly the government has enough tools and weapons to get people the right way. And they do 96, 97 percent of the time. They shouldn't be allowed to violate the law to go after a criminal. That's my feeling on it. Now, another thing is this.

People think when we take an oath, the oath of omerta, it's an oath to stay silent. It's not an oath to lie, steal, cheat, and kill. Does that happen as part of that light? Yes. But we're told straight out. Now, try to understand the thinking here. You come into that life, you're told straight out. We have rules. You don't ever violate another man's wife, daughter, sister, girl, never.

That'll cause you to die. During my era, we weren't allowed to deal with drugs. You deal with drugs, you get caught, you die. You maybe do some other things, you're not honest with people, you disrespect somebody, you hit another made guy, you die. Now, we understand that. And they tell you, your best friend may be the one that pulls the trigger because the life comes before anything. That's it.

You don't violate the rules. That's how we maintain control in this life. That's how we existed for 100 years. And that's how it's going to stay. So now you're saying, OK, we all agreed to this. We all admitted it. If one of us decides to violate the policy of the law and we get caught, well, we understand the consequences. So that's how I looked at it. And that's how I justified it.

Now, does that say you can go out and start to do random killings? No. If the boss tells you to go kill somebody because he doesn't like them and you do it, that's not right. But if we kill our own, and you know, you hear a lot of times, well, we only kill our own. Well, we don't only kill our own.

But if we kill our own, and you know, you hear a lot of times, well, we only kill our own. Well, we don't only kill our own.

But if we only kill our own, knowing that we made that choice, well then, okay, I kind of get it in a way. Even though murder is murder and it's a crime and it's sinful and I understand that. But that's how you justify it.

Well, for some of us it was and for others it was not. And I've seen both sides of that.

It's just not a subject I care to get into. Listen, I like to be as honest as I possibly can because I am a Christian and you don't want to lie to people, but it's not something I want to talk about.

Well, you know, Steve, look, there's a lot of guys on the street now. And if you go on YouTube, you'll see a number of them. And they've admitted to murders that they were involved in. These are made guys. And they've admitted to it. And many of them had struck a deal with the government. They had immunity for the crimes they committed, even murder.

I mean, the government give you immunity for murder if they want you to cooperate and help them out. It's amazing, but they'll do it. And so they have immunity. They could talk about their crimes. I didn't cooperate to that level at all. I don't have immunity for anything that I've done in the past.
