What are you talking about? That guy dies all the time!

Does anyone happen to know if there's any formal protocol for handling introductions where the person in question isn't a made man, but is formally inducted in some other Italian OC group? I imagine that if, say, a Buffalo member is introduced to an inducted 'Ndranghetista from Toronto there's proba...

Wasn't Vincenzo Morena's induction that the RCMP recorded pretty much just him being told he was part of the Bonanno family now and then introducing him to the other guys in the room?

Yes! This is exactly why I brought attention to the Indian gangster. There's a kinda famous photo of an Indian gangster at a Raptors game, heckling a player. He was a big Kingpin. But I can't recall if he was a Biker ally, or at odds with them. I think he was beefing with Amero? I gotta go back and...
