A lot of italians still in NO. My fathers family came in thru there. It wouldnt suprise me at all if there was a little something going on down there. Not as in a big hidden family, but connected guys, guys who are left over from the old family... I think this tufar o claim is bullshit. But thats just me... The only reason i even say this is bc NO is one of the most corrupt areas in america, and italian wise, its the most un-gentrified communities of italians in the south. Which is why maybe MAYBE, i could see a little "family" being there.
