This entry and Conspiracy of silence (expression)[edit]

Both entries use several of the same examples; the distinction between the two entries is subtle and not seemingly all that important. Merge? Hairhorn (talk) 16:04, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 09:28, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Edits[edit]

One think I would like to add to this page is the connection between the code of silence and the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Just like the Fifth Amendment, people are allowed to say(or not say) certain things that may incriminate them or the person that is being accused. I want to talk about numerous examples of how the code of silence has been seen in today's society. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tega.odjegba (talk • contribs) 21:10, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Citation needed[edit]

This is too specific to sit here for years with no citation.

The code of silence was famously practiced in Irish-American neighborhoods in Boston, Massachusetts such as Charlestown, South Boston, and Somerville.^{[citation needed]}

With citation or not at all. — MaxEnt 23:27, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
