Ivy -I DIDN'T READ ANYTHING YOU said ivy its to much bullshit to read - and I don't care I voiced what I no and your in la la land that's fine .
You're not even making sense anymore. All I know is that you made false statements about the current state of the mob in New York. I tell you you're wrong, you ask for examples, I give you plenty of them, but then you waive them away because you're too arrogant to admit you're wrong. And, to top it all off, you get after me for "reading too much." If you, and those like you, would actually do some damn reading on your own for once, instead of just coming on these forums and talking out of your ass, we wouldn't have these issues. In the future, simply say "Thank you, Ivy, for doing research for my lazy ass," and then shut up.
Ok, its my turn to pick a fight with ivy, the mafia only kill thier own, they back down to any ethnic group or outside organizations that stands up to them, the moguls, westies, black mafia, nicky barnes actually killed a mobster and nothing happened, ethnic groups are not afraid of the mafia and u can make a case that the reason why u see a trend of mobsters leaving the street rackets is because thier being chased out of thier own neighborhoods, minorities tooked over and if they even try taxing drugdealers today it would'nt be pretty, before merlino got locked up he even had to enlist the help of jbm to collect street tax because jbm was feared, something la costa nostra, don't have anymore, look at all the states the mafia had a family in is now disappearing and being taken over by ethnic drug organization, the future ofvthe mob is white collar crime cause they lost the streets and thier to scared to fight for it
Now you're talking out of your ass. As much as you may want to highlight them in order to make some point, generally speaking, the examples of the LCN butting heads with other groups is extremely rare. The LCN usually has no interaction with them or, if they do, it's typically a business arrangement for mutual profit. Many Mafia families have disappeared across the country due largely to attrition and, to a lesser extent, law enforcement. Not because of other OC groups.
I don't even know what you're talking about when you bring up the Mongols. Did you mean the Pagans? The Westies ended up working for the LCN. The Philly mob collected plenty of street tax without help from the JBM. In fact, most of the interaction between the Philly mob and the Black Mafia and the JBM involved drugs; either collecting a street tax when the LCN controlled the P2P supply or dealing cocaine later on. Just because Merlino used a few black guys to rob or shake down drug dealers didn't mean the Philly mob wasn't doing it themselves as well. And what's this nonsense about the Mafia leaving the street rackets? Look at the indictments. Still plenty of illegal gambling, loansharking, extortion, drug trafficking, stolen goods, etc.
@ dellacroce: first of all , smile once In a while it was a joke
2nd of all, the gambinos had to broker a peace with the westies because the genovese family said they don't want to go to war with the westies because they was to violent, see, its no fun being on the other side of that gun
And thirdly, the rico act cut thier balls off years ago now they run around with thier dicks between thier leggs
What are you talking about? The Westies were being pushed aside by the Genovese family. The arrangement between the Gambinos and the Westies, where they could use the Gambino name in return for 10% of their profits, came because Coonan had Ruby Stein killed. They didn't want to go to war with the Westies? The DeMeo crew alone killed more people than the Westies ever did.
Seriously, I haven't paid much attention to your posts before, but in the last week or two it's been one stupid thing after another from you.
