I don’t need to “identify” with the crowd. They are all thugish lowlifes, no matter how much is in their bank account or how many public figures they own.
Scorcese apes his style in all of his films.

Yes, they are/were thuggish lowlifes, and true, you dont “need” to identify with them. Its just that coming from the same neighborhoods they did and/or operated in, having known people like that, thats why one can “identify” with them. Not because theyre seen as heroes or big shots with big bank accounts.
