The reason the FBI and others think that they are only at 50 is because thats what they want you to think. Once again you can go off the numbers you read and think that is true. However I will go with who I know and see everyday. I told you once I have great knowledge of organized crime. I have been around high ranking outfit members my whole life. Played with there kids, went to there parties, hell one is my god father for heaven sake. So you believe what you want and I will go with what I know


The Outfit didn't even have 250 members at it's peak, let alone today. Regardless of where you live or what you think you know, it's not like you have done some sort of census yourself regarding Outfit membership. You're pulling that 250 number out of thin air. Even the Genovese and Gambino families don't have that many anymore.
