But in the prison system and in other regions they are really outnumbered by blacks, hispanics, asians and rednecks. That's why they have to pay another big prison gang for protection.


you're right in some way, but it's depend on the prisons in new york, jersey and other north-eastern prison where they have influence outside i doubt gangs hurt them
in other prisons it's different, but i also doubt theyre forced to pay if they pay it's coz they want some bodyguards like merlino had
who pay protection are the most vulnerable inmates and mafiosi sure are not among them
