28 people have been arrested in Palermo, Sicily, for Mafia activities. Apparently they had managed by corrupt means to get several supply contracts for a popular TV series about cops fighting the Mafia.

Extortion isn't 'corrupt means' in the bullshit sense, dude. It's legitimately super-illegal, and really a shitty thing to do in general.

I am getting sick and tired of offence merchants going round looking for things to claim to be offended by.

Go try and oppress someone else with your ill-placed and ill-digested preachings. I have met mafiosi face to face, and it is my privilege to find them funny if I want to.
