While reading some posts over in the Sopranos thread, I came across this comment made by Antoinette Giancana, daughter of the infomous Sam "Momo" Giancana and this is what she had to say when she made a comparison between Chicago mobsters and New York / New Jersey mobsters :

The New York (and New Jersey) breed is so entirely different from the Chicago breed. The New York breed is really very tough and horrible, and they would do anything for the eternal dollar. In the time of my father's day, you just stuck to certain areas in which you worked. Drugs were out, totally out. Now they're in with certain family members in New York.

We're just a little kinder outfit than the New York gangster is. They've had numerous killings. I think in Chicago, there might have been a few, but not as many.


I'm laughing so hard as I write this post.

This lady is really dillusional. She's basically implying that the organized criminal element from Chicago is a more reserved, less greedy and do not kll as much as the organized criminal element in NY/NJ! The Chicago mobster belongs to a much "kinder" outfit than the NY/NJ mobster!

Chicago had a "few" mob killings, but not as many as NY/NJ!

Oh, and her dad never had any dealing involving drugs! :rolleyes:

Maybe we should all move to Chicago! This way, if you happen to have a run in with a Chicago mobster, he will be "kinder" to you before he rips your eyes out of your head and takes every last dollar that you have.

At least you'll be treated with some respect before he robs and kills you!


Gee, now I know why I felt so safe when I was hanging with Don Sicilia when I was in Chicago!
