it's not what you know; it's who you know.
..and that guy knows a guy.

This has bad summer comedy written all over it.
It's like Oscar meets Birdcage. Which are 2 fantastic movies if you haven't seen either.
I haven't seen Birdcage, but I did enjoy Oscar.
It's the opposite for me. Was it a biopic about the muppet?
Cool echo of history given the maffia/mob ran many of the bars where queer people were welcome when things like cross dressing was criminalized
If I remember right the bar where stonewall started was a mafia or mob run bar
It was, but they were far from allies. They muscled on their patrons as often as the cops did to drag more cash out of them, because they knew they had a blackmailable secret and they couldn't go to the cops.
Isn’t this another case of only caring about something once it happens to you?
The Mafia being more inclusive than most governments.
No, it still tracks.
Not inclusive until the thing in question personally affects someone in charge.
Mafias are basically proto governments. They have all the functions of government but they’re less formalized and they struggle to achieve a monopoly on organized violence.
In some places, it was easier to go to the Mafia to get things like landlord disputes or infrastructure dealt with than it was to do things the legal way. A surprising amount of major US cities operated this way for a decent while at the turn of the century.
Sounds like they're still homophobic, just restraining themselves since they'd rather not sleep with the fishes
Bigotry arises from a failure in education, it's ignorance. They just needed to look.
A drag queen isn't necessarily gay, right?
Why would someone downvote you for your comment? Maybe a straight woman is also a drag queen? Maybe a straight guy is a drag queen? WTF?
I read "Mafia drops ban" in the sense of "new ban just dropped", as if the opposite happened
Violently good
Dude can't read, it's not about how good, it's about fabulous or not fabulous period.
