How someone is raised is so important in regard to who you become. My parents ( I don't judge them) were awful parents. Because of their terrible behavior, terrible behavior seemed normal to me. When I was younger I had a lot of friends and associates with bad behavior. Their bad behavior just didn't seem unusual to me at the time. To this day I could be very comfortable around people with bad behavior, it's almost home to me, but I avoid it now. I made a life for myself, I can't put it at risk.

I was raised on Long Island back in the late 60s/early 70s. I’m glad I was too. I had the ocean and Long Island Sound to swim in….not to mention numerous ponds and lakes. I had a horse, raised chickens and went to keg parties in the woods. In the summer, I made a fortune, as a kid, fetching golf balls out of the lakes and selling them to golfers for a nickel a piece. I also clammed as a kid in the bay by Smith Point Park and made good money selling the clams to local restaurants. In the winter, I went sleigh riding and ice skating right down the road from my house. I could not have had that much fun being raised in the city….certainly could not have had all the animals which were always a comfort to me as a child.

I also wonder if it's harder to lose your twin than lose your father. My uncle's funeral was the only time I saw my dad cry. Not even at his mother's. After my uncle passed my dad went downhill emotionally. He was deeply depressed. He eventually needed to go on antidepressants. I believe they saved his life. I think he may have taken his own life or drank himself to death. On a positive note, my cousin asked my dad to give her away at her wedding, because her father was gone. I thought that was a sweet thing to do, even though it must've been difficult for him. Sorry for the rambling

He contradicts himself when he says that his father killed only soldiers of the same street life, but just before he says he thinks he killed that guy that killed his brother accidentally and was basically just an unlucky civilian.

[@straightshootah7550]

I'm sorry but if someone kills your son, on accident or on purpose, you hold him accountable. I understand that hit.

[@Lk-jc1998]

I heard the guy said….”what was the kid doing out in the road anyway” and that would make any man snap.

I have a problem the way john gotti handled the death of his son ... His son was riding a mini bike and ran out in front of somebody and got hit. And because his son made a mistake a civilian had to die?? Their is no honor in that matter of fact its the complete opposite... A gangster doesn't operate on emotion like that and that was definitely a scare on his face

@@eddieotero2726 Sammy never belonged in that life either? Sammy was more than made for that life. He would have been the perfect boss for that family. He completely controlled the construction industry in New York, bringing the family in millions upon millions of dollars, and through thousands of hours of wiretaps he was never once caught talking about anything that could implicate him or anyone else. However, John's big mouth was caught talking about multiple crimes on wiretap, and his desire to be a celebrity brought the family down. So don't comment on things that you know nothing about.
