They were a drug trafficking organisation well before the BMF title.

Also i think a few of you are getting hung up on the mafia title. Drug trafficking is an organised criminal activity and they pretty much fit into many definitions of organised crime.

Quote:
Organised crime can be defined as serious crime planned, coordinated and conducted by people working together on a continuing basis. Their motivation is often, but not always, financial gain. Organised criminals working together for a particular criminal activity or activities are called an organised crime group.
