He's not glorifying his life as a businessman whose business was crime, he's using it as a teaching tool. Unfortunately, you've decided, not only to run your mouth but get slightly political and in a manner that screams "I don't understand what Illinois is doing at the start of 2023 but the man on my TV says it's bad". Because of this, I am not responsible for how hurt your feelings get. First and foremost, even when he was living as a businessman, he had rules for himself and he followed them. We are all protagonists in our stories. Now with your comment on guessing who I want for president. I rather like the current administration, the previous one was so self centered, it's weird that people seemingly pray to him. He was so mad at when his followers did what he said to do. Illinois is eliminating cash bail for those *accused* of crimes up to 2nd degree homicide. As in they're still innocent, they haven't been proven guilty in a court of law. Families living paycheck to paycheck cannot afford bail, nor can they live without the paycheck of the accused. Maybe next time, do your own research, Tucker Carlson is not a reputable source, he's employed by a politically biased network.

[@langersnmash5208]

Bobbys reply about talking to kids is exactly what I’ve been saying since I learnt about crime at school and having grown up in a town full of crime and violence. Educational services need to start teaching kids instead of telling them. Telling someone not to do drugs, not to kill someone, not to have sex until a certain age is going to make them want to do it more than teaching them the consequences since it’s natural for humans to rebel. If schools start teaching kids of what they can expect after doing these things in a non biast manner, the kids will feel less like they’re being told and therefore would feel less likely to rebel

"What broke me is when my daughter died". Oh I felt the pain in his voice, and how he says it brought his humanity back and even thought "why not me?, I hurt a lot of people, why not me?", the death of a child is something nobody should go through, still I bet he would've been a great father to his baby girl :) I'm looking forward to see that movie!

[@dc_sunshin9499]

100% agree. I get what he is trying to do and I respect him for it. However, he has a level of charisma that is undeniable and kinda makes me wonder if the ppl he talks to are actually deterred away from the lifestyle. The honest truth is, most ppl drawn to that just think to themselves, "Well, I just won't mess up like "they" did. I will do it better."

[@Ryan-py9lj]

Yeah... I appreciated the notion, however I just don't see how the older boys make a difference to the 'gangsters' of today. No morals, no respect, it's just not going to happen. It's a different world to the 60s. You can't help but like him though.

[@ewfq2]

I think you might be misattributing the charisma here. Yes he exudes charisma, but you have to ask yourself whether you should attribute that charisma to Bobby the gangster, or Bobby the reformed gangster-turned-educator? The confidence, self-awareness, and mental sharpness is something that is not because of his criminal past, but despite it. I personally feel his charisma is more than anything because he was able to overcome his previous life - and the attitude, outlook, and values that cmae with it - to transform himself. In general, you'll notice that there is that special kind of charisma of people who have shown to be able to transform themselves. And I think that is what you should connect to the charisma; the ability, will, and power to transform oneself. I hope the movie they're making about him will be able to make that difference clear. Even the glamour in crime is fundamentally about autonomy/power, often first purely over others and for one's own sake where then th question remains if they realize true power is over oneself and for the sake of others. I can't imagine how radical that transformation of life and being was for him. To do so and retain so much vibrant charisma means he really owned his past, which takes a great deal of strength, insight, and will. I don't know how to say it, but I hope that helps in reframing this issue of glamour.

He always told me if anything ever went bad because he was around, he’d make sure we were all safe. Gangsters aren’t always vile, murderous monsters. Some just have their “job” to do. We may not agree with the job, but from what I’ve learned is that if you don’t bother them, they won’t bother you (usually- there are those gangs that target random people sadly).

the "jib" is the front sail on many traditional sailing ships, ahead of the mast. Historically different nations had distinctly different shaped jibs, so looking at the "cut of the jib" could you let you know if you were looking at a friendly or not so friendly vessel. These days I believe it refers to someone's mannerisms and bearing more than to their clothes. But probably varies by area a bit.
