At the risk of taking my long held belief that people are basically good a little bit too far, I'd like to point out that even the worst criminal may have something to recommend him. After all, this "code of ethics" looks pretty sound...and actually fairly universal if you substitute the word "enemies" for "cops". Too bad these guys are the Cosa Nostra: if they weren't they could probably be saints. But they say the line between sinners and saints is, indeed, very fine.
