The LCN also had to many rats they need to get that under control.
Its hard to do it because many mobsters doesn't had the state of mind of their fathers or grandfathers;out any myth on the mafia,before the omertà was lived as a way of life:don't speak with cops,made money in the shadow,obey to the boss ecc in the 1980s with the Rico law a mobster can find an exit and flipped saving his live or don't go in prison. Now the LCN is more american that sicilian and only the zips and few mobster follow the old rules. The only take the rats under control is to prefer quality to quantity.

The mob could never survive in today’s world if they kept actin like they did in the 80’s. Bosses can’t have face-to face meetings and hits cant happen as often as they used to. Lcn is smart, and guys like frank cali r the reason why the mob is alive and well. 100% true ! frank and barney are still young (in mafia terms) so they can really make history in lcn also philliy are rumored to recruit a lot of guys detroit and jersey are quit so who knows... bonnano's will also be interesting to follow with mancuso release the colombos need to rebuild and with recent news that they have stuff going on in canada, so as long as they maintain good relationship between them (the american families) they can find new puppet family or clan to rule canada for them and pay them money, it's pretty tough to have something like that with the calabrians who rule there, but maybe they will make them their allies and work together so they will have both canada and ny, and maybe they will have vegas back some day... if that so then the lcn will really have bright future ahead of them that's for sure !

Furio, Cali seems to be bringing a lot of that old school way back around. It reminds me of in Gomorrah where Pietro insulated himself so well. Was never out in public that often unless he had a dispute with another clan. But obv we're talking about two different factions, but you get the idea. I guess my question is, will the other Families follow suit? The Genoveses have traditionally been good at keeping a low profile. And we watch the other families struggle.

I understand the theory of only promoting the old guys to admin, ala the outfit.for example, if somebody becomes admin at 70, they have about 10-15 years at the top before thier health start collapsing, plus it takes the heat off of your money makers by not thrusting them into the spotlight and everyone will talk about how your organization is on its last legs when in actuality, your right where you want to be

i forgot that too ralphy sonny franzese reclaimed his poition at 101. he pulled that out his ass. im sure sonnys eating his jello in some old folks home on long island Sonny lives in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The only reason I believe this could be true is because this comes from a law enforcement source. My guess is he's got Catapano doing his bidding. Sonny is a nut job and so is that other guy Persico. Nothing surprises me when it comes to those guys. Yep, he lives with his daughter in Greenpoint. Recent photos of him have him looking healthier than he did when he got out of prison. He's put on a lot of the weight that he lost during his bid behind bars so he doesn't look as gaunt anymore.
