Eight Years On, Tony Soprano Has His Gun

Submitted by Stacey, Jun 8, 2007 19:16

Tony will never kill himself. As beastly and mobbed up as he is, he's also Catholic, and Catholics don't commit suicide. Murder, yes. Suicide, err... no. That's because, if you murder, you can still repent for your sins. If you kill yourself, you will go to hell with no chances of redemption or forgiveness by God. And besides, in the mob there's clearly more honour in going out in a hail of bullets by your enemy than by your own hand. There is the glory, the tributes, the elvation to sainthood to consider. No... no, he would never do it. Besides, I think if he did off himself, Carmella would be the first one to spit on his casket at the wake. :-)
