Welcome, Turk! Hope to see many more thoughtful posts from you! In general, there's never a shortage of prejudice, unfortunately, against people who don't speak, look like, worship, etc., like the majority. But in the case of GF, Virgil Sollozzo, a Sicilian, was called "The Turk" because he had poppy fields in Turkey that produced the opium base for his heroin trade, and because he had a Turkish wife.

Where i live in North London, there is a large Turkish/Kurdish community with many organized gangs. Check this link out. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/2284780.stm
