Way of the Wiseguy Transcripts

[JFZish]

Donnies seriously needs to get off his high-horse in this conversation

[19thugstyle96]

how da fuck these wiretapes belongs to the FBI got leaked out ???

[karesztlx]

@19thugstyle96 As these recordings are not to be used as evidence anymore - they were used successfully in the mafia trials back in the '80s - I assume that Joseph Pistone got the permission from the FBI to include them as annex to his book.

[19thugstyle96]

@karesztlx probably , thanks for the INFO

[Wobbothe3rd]

@19thugstyle96 evidence used in a trial is (eventually) available to the public, just like you can walk into any trial and watch.

[TheIrish1888]

Benjamin"Lefty"Ruggiero was truely a stand up wiseguy never broke the vow of silence Omerta, RIP Sonny & Lefty

[Veeshush]

Christ, you almost need subtitles for this. Still, I bet none of them in their wildest dreams thought they'd eventually end up here on Youtube of all places, with armchair warriors listening while pretending to know an inkling of how the mob works. This by far makes more of mockery of them than if Donnie had indeed become a Made Man.

[toopoogang]

WHAT A WASTE THIS GUY IS. BETRAYAL LIKE THAT SHOULD NEVER BE DONE. HIS WIFE LEFT HIM AND HE'S A BROKESTER. GOOD!!!

[FreeBlago1]

Sounds like Pesci

[TheGrandCapt]

Italians can t do anything with out currupting it. Even Joe Pistone sold drugs to make money when he was in the F.B.I. After he retired he would sell nickle and dime sacks.

[mrtundra45]

@TheGrandCapt i heard hes a Rogaine salesman now he also dabbles in bootleg Viagra. and those dam Irish micks are worse when it comes to corruption, check the Boston PD or Philly cops.

[stockton26]

u rat bastererd



[patrick2504]

yr kiddin,, he was due to be made,, an FBI agent!!! Didnt get far,, what a retard!!

[No1TaffWill]

I must say, I thought the book was a bit boring. He didn't get in very far with the mob, just petty stuff. I was suprised they made such a great movie of it. Each to his or her own I guess

[betsy1947]

Just finished his book - one of my favorite mob books!

[LondonLawyers]

I can really see the influence the Irish had on the New York accent in this coversation from the way the voices. Very Irish way of talking.

[missyk135]

wat ye on bout he aint no rat twas is job,da gangsters wer just not smart nd careful enuf

[kalcom2]

Sonny Black knew he was history when this hit the fan.

[lcovati]

@tonyb! Aren't those words something gotti said! Anyway good comment, cause I believe the same as you!

[crackernumber2]

lefty sounds like a guy who likes his booze

[toopoogang]

A BIG JERKOFF PISTONE IS I'M GLAD HIS WIFE LEFT HIM AND HIS LIFE IS RUINED. I FEEL GOOD THAT HIS WIFE IS FUCKING AND EATING OTHERS MEN'S ASSES!!!

[irishgeal1]

brasco sounded like a rat on that call

[mrtundra45]

actually Brasco IS a rat.....idc if he was undercover or not, fuck em!

[ribeye1515]

fuck donnie brasco fuckin punk

[philly442]

Why hasn't the mob whacked joe pistone yet?

[MrArjun223]

@whiteej21 pistone was shit!!

if he got caught, god knows what would have happen to him!

[bankNbakeGuy]

hahaha sounds like a bunch of joe pescis on the phone

[ducdelacroce]

Donny snaked Leftie.....and Leftie let Donny live......SMH...shit is fucked up

[Portilloizay]

The convo in the middle doesnt sound like Donnie or Lefty! Too much wind or something.

[jaguarkurd]

it's a good movie, I have also read the book. It's interesting, but very sad to be known about Sonny being murdered for introducing Donnie Brasco to the boss of Milwaukee!!!

[tonyb196969]

great movie but what did the fbi gain by this now you have a world wide syndicate when the italians ran shit at least you could walk down your street now you have the russians the japs the chinks they dont care about america or the streets they run their scumbags

[V8Deuce]

@tonyb196969 Well said

[tonyb196969]

@V8Deuce thanks but its true,you go to the neighborhoods were the italians once ran and now there slums

[danpolicarpo]

These tapes....Lefty sounds just like I imagined him to speak..a little nasally, weaselly..a character type for sure, tough job to get close to somebody, get to know them,their family, then turn 'em out..no matter how reprehensible their actions..I think Sonny Black was a tough one for him too, knowing that was a death sentence for him ..seems like Joe/Donnie kind of liked him the way he describes the times they had in Florida and the "holy underwear" story..

[stockton26]

stooly

[TheKind007]

U all talking like u are from the cosa nostra you think being a gangster and killing people is good than u all eat shit.........

[strifed169]

lol lefty and "donnie" argueing is pretty funny

al pacino was fucking perfect for lefty

[KoSeBreNervira]

u guys r fkn idiots. how can the police be a rat???? ahhaha fkn americans

[baddmaddogg]

I have this cd with these transcripts form Joes book the way of a wiseguy

[0HollyHood0]

was it really worth it u pig? at the end all u got was a medal lol fucktard

oh and fuck illuminati

[baddmaddogg]

@0HollyHood0 He basically paved the way for future Mafia recon. He got hundreds of convictions through his 4 or what 6 years undercover..

[0HollyHood0]

@baddmaddogg i hate rats

[baddmaddogg]

@0HollyHood0 He was not a rat! he was an undercover Agent with the sole purpose to go deep undercover in the mob. He aint a turncoat or nothing! he was doing his job. now if an actual mafioso did it. then yea tht would be a rat. but if you aint one of them to begin with then u aint really a rat..

[0HollyHood0]

@baddmaddogg undercover agent=rat

[baddmaddogg]

@0HollyHood0 haha no... A Mafioso turncoat is a rat....like Gravano did to Gotti. PIstone was an undercover agent that never once ratted out information in return of a lesser sentence.... Pistone went undercover for one objective. to get information about the mob, but he never gave info for a lesser sentence cus he was an agent on a job... look up the definition of a rat before you say someone is one

[0HollyHood0]

@baddmaddogg he is a fucking mook

[boi187]

@0HollyHood0 Whats a mook? ;) You cant call me a mook!

[0HollyHood0]

@boi187 ill give ya a mook!

[kirkbyla]

depp and paccino had the voices nailed

[senka71]

J.Pistone is a hero!!!!!!!!!

[DuoSonic87]

Is that Left or Sonny Black at 7:55? I wish I had pictures of what the entire donnie brasco crew looked like in real life : \

[orangeoctober33]

@DuoSonic87 Yeah thats sonny black and santo trafficante...boss of florida.

[batoresi]

all u bitches would have a different opinion if these assholes killed your family..this shit is sexy but its all bullshit there aint no honor

[harshLesson]

@dhyanamooch  umm for starters he deceived a guy on a very personal, heartfelt level. its one thing to be a criminal and a thug, its another to befriend someone, have them completely trust you and love you, and pull that all away + having that person you befriended's life/reputation at jeopardy forever. sounds to me like an injustice. seems like the fake friendship should count as some time served. fuck joe pistone

[thoughtfighter35]

Joe piss-take Pistone, is a typical Government puppet, and takes it up the ass?

[matagat13]

@thoughtfighter35 just like your old man ey?

[Icedude91]

@harshLesson It's was his fucking job. He put his own life at risk for the better good.

[baddmaddogg]

@harshLesson There is no friends on the Mafia. You can be friendly sure! but you aint friends..You cant be friends cus one day u having lunch with a guy then next week youget told to whack the guy... U cant get close with people in the mod, u cant fully trust anyone but ur self. Lefty knew full well what he was getting into.. he knew there was the rist

[matagat13]

@harshLesson He was doing his job and by what you are saying you would rather let LCN run loose and kill innocent people because of their paranoia than have the police do their job properly, you are scum.

[Jayrado22]

@matagat13 WHAT KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE!! THE MAFIA MOST THE TIME KILL EACH OTHER AND SCUM LIKE THEMSELVES VERY RARELY DO THEY KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE!! I KNOW CAUSE I GREW UP AROUND IT AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION THIS GOVERMENT AND THE POLICE ARE THE REAL FUCKIN MURDERERS THEY ARE A BUNCH OF ILLUMINATI LUCIFERIAN PIECES OF SHIT!!

[matagat13]

@Jayrado22 You obviously didn't grow up around it at all otherwise you would know that maybe 70 years ago they kept to thier own and didn't kill innocent people but as soon as the late 50's and 60's came around all that went out the window, there is no honour in todays mafia they are just scum.

[crushf5]

@Jayrado22 Um have you ever heard of the demeo crew? They killed and chopped up 200 people. They killed innocent people and sometimes they were young teenagers. So you obviously don't know as much as you say since your head is up your ass

[MobHeataEnt]

@crushf5 Where did you get 200 from? it was around 70 not 200 lol and they were hitmen not serial killers.

[crushf5]

@MobHeataEnt believe me they killed more than 70. I don't know the exact number but according to Dominick Montiglio the nephew of Demeo Captain Nino Gaggi as well as a shitload of other mobsters these guys killed between 100-200 people. remember this was in like a 10 year period so it is not as funny as you make it seem

[Jayrado22]

@MobHeataEnt I refuse to argue with ignorance!! my family are gambinos and I grew up on mulberry street!! all you people talk about shit you read in books and see on tv!! learn to speak about shit you know cuz when you speak about shit you don't know you sound like a idiot!!

[Jayrado22]

@crushf5 Well I bet you there family had dealings with them or they wouldn't of got chopped up. You listen to what you read and see on tv. I bet you aren't even italian and never met a real wiseguy in your life! There is alot of falscities circulating in movies about how gangsters really are, I grew up in little italy and these so called serial killers, made it safe for you to walk the streets at night and they protected there people and neighborhoods. No other race does that!

[crushf5]

@Jayrado22 I am 100% Italian and a fellow New Yorker so I know what I'm talking about. I respect the italian immigrants who came here and busted their ass and maybe didn't earn the big amount of money those mafia assholes did by stealing and killing. I am a big mafia researcher as well but I don't respect these guys because they don't care about you. I bet if a relative of yours were murderd by them you wouldn't be sucking dick

[ghana25]

@Jayrado22 hahaha listen up to italian rapper jayrado everybody, the italian stallion a.k.a MC gotti

[ghana25]

@Jayrado22 MC gayrado is da bomb!

[edwin22ification]

@Jayrado22 they didnt make the neighborhood safe for the people that lived there they just didnt want to bring the cops attention in their neighborhood for business reasons. it has nothing to do with protecting their streets its all about the cash and nothing else . and those days everything was different in new york im from queens so dont act like i dont know what im talking about

[edwin22ification]

@Jayrado22 they didnt make nuttin safe they just didnt want to bring attention to the neighborhood (cops attention) cuz they didnt want anything to affect their biz. and back then all the neighborhoods were protected by the ppl who lived there for pride reasons but the italians motives were for business reasons im from queens so act like u know

[MobHeataEnt]

@Jayrado22 Ya why would they kill innocent people which mean nothing for them, why kill someone that has no meaning to you or benefit you all that does is bring heat on you lol. The masons run everything and if you do your research on la cosa nostra, the guy who came up with the mafia was a mason, Giuseppe Mazzini.

[matagat13]

@MobHeataEnt They kill innocent people because they want their businesses and hard earned money at first they stand over them and if that doesn't work they kill them, they are scum how do you think they have got their fingers in so many legitimate businesses, do you think people line up to work with these mongrels?

[boagieking]

I dont know why but that part in the movie where theyre all dancin to the three black chicks singin disco is always stuck in my head after watchin that movie lol "happiness and over and over again!" hahaah

[harshLesson]

fuck joseph p pistone. someone should put a hollow point through his fat skull

[dhyanamooch]

@harshLesson why?

[matagat13]

@harshLesson why don't you? cause your a wannabe faggot, get over it wanker.
