you'd think jeets would find being a lawyer a match made in heaven, right? It's a high paying job and they love to lie and warp the law, but the reason why they fundamentally don't do it is because they don't respect the law at all and they have no constitution, so the very concept of being a lawyer doesn't make sense to them. Gangster films are fundamentally about skirting the law in special ways, because they all disrespect the law it is not special to do so, so starting a gang to do it wouldn't make sense if everyone already does it and if the police are already useless.
