Narrator: With Mickey Cohen in prison, Los Angeles is organized-crime free.
Smith punishing the man:
Smith: The chief wants to keep it that way. Now, in Cleveland, you're an organized-crime associate...in desperate needs of reeducation in the ways of polite society.
Man: I hear things. Like those two-man shooter teams. Bang, bang. They're eighty-sixing Cohen's lieutenants.
What does "in desperate needs of reeducation in the ways of polite society" mean?
