You tell that to the people who die every day in the middle of
the streets in Palermo or Corleone and, when the Police arrives,
normal people who OBVIOUSLY WERE in the middle of that same
street AND WHO ARE NOT part of the Mafia (in the strict sense)
say "I have seen nothing".
Just to rectify, you know. People DIE in Italy because they try
to talk... NORMAL people... Priests, businessmen, people who
refuse to adhere to the so called "CODE OF HONOUR" and to pay
the rackets... It's a trend that is just starting to reverse...
