Not everyone's a fan of reality circus Mob Wives, and for those who had relatives "gunned down by mobsters" the show is a "cold slap in the face" as reported by Frank Donnelly for the Staten Island Advance:
"It's hurtful to me. For weeks I was crying," said New Dorp resident Joi Faraci, 53, whose 16-year-old brother, Alan Kaiser, was an innocent bystander gunned down 34 years ago in Brooklyn by Salvatore (Sammy the Bull) Gravano's henchmen.
"This is not the Sopranos. It's not make-believe. They're walking around like nothing happened," said Ms. Faraci, her voice choking. "I'm sure they're getting paid a lot of money. In my eyes, it's a reward for what their families have done to other families."
Like self-absorbed Americans really care about someone else's pain and suffering. Just pass the popcorn, and keep the entertainment coming.
