italian-americans did this sort of hero-worship with the Mafia. They still do it. Italian-american Catholics make more references and comparisons to characters from The Godfather than they do to characters from The Bible. And even the non-criminal italian-americans could be relied on to keep their mouths shut, when police came around asking questions. Just like blacks do with black gangs. Yet Italians don't get anywhere near as much group-hatred as blacks do.
The hatred is because of racism, not behavior. Both groups worship criminals; but blacks look very different, while Italians are mostly white-passing.
