well, to think italians are all mafiosi, is equal to think colombians are all coke dealers, or germans are all nazis, or swiss people are all very serious and on time, or blacks are all good musicians.. it's just sterheotypes.. I'm italian and don't get offended at all by any mafia movies although I'm great fan of them, I don't feel like I'm involved in mafia, and so 99% of italians do, I hope. :)
woud be a good idea, but i think they base their type of italian-ness off of tradition and yata yata, basicly the part of italians that arent gangsters
@allends612 .. So do you hate the sopranos for perpetuating this stereotype?? What about all the other ganster movies? They are all pieces of art.. commercials, movies, shows.. they are all created by someone who is expressing something..
These moron Italians from East Haven, CT and where ever are the only ones who THINK that they are gangsters.. The rest of the world doesnt give a crap.. Its the italians perpetuating this stereotype
Obviously it isn't a real commercial. However, that doesn't matter. The fact of the matter is this is a negative stereotype and it's something that does occur in the media. All I'm trying to say is there is a preconceived notion that Italian-Americans are gangesters.
Uh-huh. And my point was that no one would air a commercial with racist undertones. And I'm Italian, and honestly don't get offended by this. Nobody really thinks we're all gangsters. That's just a fantasy.
