Dsd, like Furio said, the Mafia has more glamor and appeal and they tend to piss the government off which also makes the tax-burdened hard-working public love them even more. So that's why they go after them more than other groups. It's actually a sort of jealousy if you really look at it. They know that the public in general will never admire them as much as the mob.

Michael Mancuso is a bumbling idiot. I've been saying this forever, the Mafia needs to stop putting guys in charge who are either in prison or on parole. In fact, having a boss on parole is possibly even worse than a boss in prison. The guy did a decade, and couldn't even be disciplined enough to just chill out for another 3 years on parole and not meet known wiseguys?
