    It has nothing to do with me being Gypsy. I know a serb guy who said that mafia is cool and he was even white nationalist. Because its a "white organisation".

    Mafia's are not cool, but their image is certainly pretty cool. All criminal life tends to be glorified and I guess that's due to some biological instinct where "rebels" and "warriors" are seen in a different light from the "conformists".

    They aren't glorified in Italy, except in the poorest suburbs from which the Mafia takes the new recruits. But this happens anywhere in the world with criminal organizations I guess.

    Organized crime is never cool in the real life Mortimer, think of the victims and the menace it represents to society.

    Don't know about Italy, but the ones from America had a certain coolness about them. So much that several movies were made about them.

    It is the opposite. The movies gave it that certain "coolness". Which it lacks in real life.

    The real Mafia is cool,they are just businessmen doing business on the other side of the law,the bosses are usually honorable,with rich culture,people with class and good taste in many things

    However there's a lot of petty groups out there that think they are the Mafia,but they are just ghetto thugs who have been watching too much Godfather.Guys that rob currency exchange joints and sell jacked cars.

    They're fucked up. They only seem cool in Grand Theft Auto games that take place in Liberty city.
