[He's not sure he totally believes him. Giotto was a man who'd pick a stray kitten off the street and take it in and take care of it. He didn't believe he would outright refuse someone protection just because they didn't pay, especially if the area they lived in was dangerous. Maybe that's what he meant by "less cut throat" and "charge differently depending on the situation".
And it did make sense to have people pay for it. The Mafia was as much of a job as anything else was. How else would Giotto get the money to support himself?
It certainly sounded bad and unnecessarily harsh on the surface, but Giotto was being vague and leaving out details. It was a bit strange that he wasn't trying to justify it or make it sound better, but Tsuna remembers the marks from awhile ago. The Vongola family-- and probably the mafia as a whole-- had been one of those regrets.]
