But the whole thing is gross. People in Southie should decide if this guy is a criminal, or someone they love to gossip and talk about.
I thought we were through with this crap. Enough already!
My grandfather’s car is going to be in the movie!
you r right it is gross he is a killer not a star
obviously the guy is a criminal and scumbag. but just like an italian mobster who comitted crimes, as time goes on they become romanticised in societies history to a degree. no need to throw a fit about it. its just a big part of southies history.
May I have a room next Johnny Depp ‘ room in the Hotel ?
