Chin did not fuck around. I think he passed that mentality to the guys running it today. Gotti had the power he had due to the time period, people were scared shitless of the mob even in the early nineties and he was one of the guys who wasn't afraid to pull the trigger. But he wasn't discreet. Gotti held out for 5 years, the Chin wasn't convicted until 1997.

Today the Gambino's got power, but they were ruined by the Gotti's and they stick to strip clubs and construction. The West Side still has a good amount of leverage on the streets.
