I would like to give a little advice to GEKKO on the Aponte subject. I know this guy. He was born and raised a true “BAD ASS”. We grew up in the same area of N.Y. If he reads this I want him to know right now…I HAVE AND WANT NO BEEF WITH YOU TONY! I know better. Gekko, some free advice... Aponte has been fighting since he was 9yrs old. I fully realized it when I saw him knock out the Golden Gloves Fighter in a Prospect Park club at the age of 17. Yeah sure everyone knows he did a Long prison stint many years ago, I would say almost 7 to 8 yrs. But since he’s been legit he moved to California and then the Northwest. He has some real know how in nutrition and develops real estate. He trained Martinez and now Freeman. Aponte is from the east and that’s why he defends the N.P.C. and probably good friends with This Steve Weinberger guy. Bro these east coast dudes stick together, you should know that. He is out of the gang life because he’s 42 or 43 yrs old by now. But if you look at the tattoos on him and notice he is always with a lot Italian dudes. Get a clue Dude. His family lives in Las Vegas and N.Y. and everyone knows his dad was a heavy dude back home in the Longshoremen's union and passed away 3 to 4 yrs ago. His dad left him a huge inheritance and as a hobby helps a bodybuilder now and then, but I know he doesn’t do something for nothing. I also know that if someone starts with him trust me he hits HARD and has a back ground in Kick Fighting. I’ve seen him with my own eyes do some wild sh*t, so if I was you Gekko I would keep my trap shut and not pick a fight. I say there is nothing wrong with a little chit chatter but lets keep it positive and move forward. Be cool, I’m just giving some advice that you should be glad to get in the right situation.
God Bless, peace out.
Thanks for the "advice".
Now let me get this straight...
A new guy who has contributed nothing else to the board comes online and starts making threats of violence under someone else's handle. Myself and others point out the comical absurdity of this, and now you say I should be scared because this guy is a real-life "connected", wealthy, ex-con toughguy whose father was a wealthy mafioso. I guess he's also bulletproof as well?
I suppose I should now stop commenting on the silliness of this bulletproof clown because he might track me down and jump into his private jet and fly a couple of thousand miles to whack me out, throw my family a beating, and kick my dog. All because I laughed at the silly, juvenile threats of violence he made to users on a internet message board whose posts somehow wounded his delicate psyche. I'm so scared I think I'll just stop posting.
I think it's likely that you and he are the same person, or at least very good friends. Next time you watch "Goodfellas", "Casino", etc., think about how long ago the periods of time those movies were set in were. And think about how many of your Mob heroes ate a bullet at a young age, died in jail, or became "rats". Check out "Junior" Gotti's views on the Mob and his father. My advice would be to find new role models to emulate. The truth is that the mob is nowhere near as powerful or "glamorous" as it was 25 years ago.
