The joke or why an Italian would be offended?

For the latter, crime families are a serious threat in Italy and corruption ran very rampant in the mid 20th century. People who opposed them were publicly murdered in horrific ways to send a message.

For the former, there's so much media about crime dramas that attempting to say "this is all off-limits" comes across as really arrogant and presumptuous. This is helped by the fact that they reply to silly "mama mia spicy meatball" jokes with more anger.
