The next step by the goons will be to deny phone "privileges" to Sam. They will not tolerate him being able to have his say on the radio. The goons know only one way to get their way - increase the violence. Make no mistake, unless you bow down and behave they way they want you to, you will never "win". They have all the guns and are ready and anxious to use them. Unless force is met with force, the goons will continue their escalation. I'm not suggesting that anyone actually USE force against the goons, I'm just saying that is the only language goons understand. They really don't care if Sam dies in there (in fact they may prefer it)...
