I'm sorry to disagree with a majority of the posters here, but the idea that the Gallo Bros. and their co-horts were not a powerful group of "gangsters" and only an out of control bunch of knuckleheads seems way off base. After things settled down and it was being broken up it contained three future bosses (Blanco, Persico, Amuso) and a slew of other reliable members. A few being L. Gallo who died too young of cancer, A. Gallo still alive must be in his 90's with the Geneveses, Punchy Illiano who was extremely respected by everyone, and M. Rizzitello to name a few.
No one can question the fear they imposed. The fact they fought two wars with an original boss who had an army behind him tells you they were as tough as any crew ever. To kidnap the bosses people and hold them for ransom, are you F......kidding me? The mistake was they didn't take the time to gather a few allies (like Gotti did before killing Castellano). Profaci was cheap and he screwed that crew, convincing them to kill Abbatamarco promising them his rackets and then reneged. Leaving them with crumbs. he didn't respect them and I suspect it was out of fear of them.
Do I think Joe was nuts? No, I think he had a set onions no one could match and he had a short fuse. A deadly combination. This crew is unmatched. I know others disagree but if you do explain your reasoning and I'll try to rebut your argument. Others may agree with me, add your two cents as well.
If you haveanother crew you want tto match up with this one go ahead. Tell why with facts mixed with your opinon. Love to read them. Finally, since most here feel like the Genevese are the gold standard, if a few of these guys were nothing but out of control killers, why would they take them in? Just a thought.

I just want to say: I cannot stand Joe's silly portrayal in Scorsese's The Irishman...and the film portraying Frank Sheeran as his shooter was fucking hilarious
Russell Bufalino got Frank Sheeran to kill Joe Gallo because Joe was too flashy?!? A Northeastern Pennsylvania mafia boss just decides to kill a powerful Brooklyn neighborhood gangster that had evaded being killed how many times, through how many wars?!? Laugh my fucking ass off
Fuck that whole movie for it's silly portrayal of Joe, and portraying Russell Bufalino/Frank Sheeran as his killers

They did not have a big mafia crew, but they had a lot of members of their own gang, and it disintegrated as the years rolled by. They took in any idiot, and must have had a a lot of informers in their group. As soon as Joe Gallo was killed Pete the Greek started singing for the police and FBI immediately. They were at least big enough at one point that they could've taken over 1 of the 5 families Interesting article that include Pete spilling some beans in 1975. 3 years after Joe was hitAstro News, the major New York distributor for porno papers, is operated by Richard A. DiMatteo, who is listed by the police as a member of the Gallo faction of the Joseph Colombo crime family. Peter Diapiiulas, a member of the Gallo group for 15 years until his recent defection, said Mr. Dimatteo was the “front” at Mtro Neivs for Albert Gallo, the leader of the Gallo group, who actually controls the company. According to Mr. Diapoulos, the three men were at first reluctant to give up the distribution and maintained that they were with Vincent Gigante, a reported captain in the family of the late Vito Genovese.
Mr: Diapoulas arranged a “sit?down” — an arbitration meeting — with the three and Mr. Gigante, who, he said, disclaimed any connection with them.
Nevertheless, the three still refused to turn over the distributorship, according to Mr. Diapoulas. “So we got a bunch of guys from President Street [the Gallo headquarters] and started busting up their trucks.”, Quickly the three independent distributors capitulated.
At the start Mr. Diapoulas and his partner, Mr. Bongiove, who is now serving a life term for murder, rented a truck and undertook the distribution of Screw by themselves. But it proved so profitable (the two paid themselves each $600 a week and the business made an average of $800 a week profit on top of that) that Albert Gallo decided to set up a regular company to handle the distribution of Screw and other pornographic papers.

Yes, the Gallo brothers were feared, tough and influential in their day, and they showed coglioni in their war with Profaci. But the Blond was a publicity hound, and his passion for headlines and news coverage undercut their effectiveness. I'll never forget the big feature arricle on him in Look Magazine in 1961, when he invited a reporter to their war headquarters and bragged, and his post-prison-release career as a media star. Always fatal.
