Hasn't Allie been the acting boss since like the early 2000's ?? I'm sure he'll get the spot "officially" and they'll name another street boss. I'm not sure why the people on the street put up with this. How many people out there actually knew/know Carmine or Allie ?

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/08/19 04:16 AM

alies been locked up since 1999 thats 20yrs i just think the gambino genovese and bonnano bosses will say no pick someone on the street or we wont recongnize shit ect

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/08/19 04:40 AM

pmac, I thought all bosses had to be approved by the commission. I suppose there no longer really is a commission. I've read they haven't met since the 80s.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/08/19 05:20 AM

Yaeh oak i dont think theres been a meeting of all 5 bosses an there underbosses an consigs like 70tys even mid 80tys. But im sure the gambino bosses will back 1 guy the genovese will back another and the bonnano will side with 1 of them. Whoever running the lucheses. I would bet vic amuso will want a say. He was friends wit carmine. It wont be a vote between the family's more like how it benefits them

Massino said the last time there was a commission meeting was before paul castellano was hit by gotti. Bosses meet an mingle but they never considerd it the commission cause gotti broke the killing a boss rule and all the fbi surveillance.

I think that the colombos hierarchy prefer a boss on the streets that an another boss in prison because the family can be rebuilted only a boss on the street,for sure allie boy will be the official boss and will receive some money from the his parents but nothing more.
The last commission meeting was in 2000 but anyway the colombos have rackets with the other families so the new boss should ask the other family rapresentatives for be to be recognized as new boss.

Carmine has been sick for many years and he was not running the family for many many years .

People here had him sending daily or weekly word to guys just not true , when Allie daughter was pushing for his release that’s why the guy could not walk 50 ft before he needed to sit r be scooped up by a wheelchair he set so many years in the joint his health was taking the toll .

Ur comment makes no sense. Familes today still care who is the boss of any family. In a recent indictment, the Bonanno family informed the westside abt Joe C’s promotion to boss.

I assume the bosses don’t all sit down at a table together and discuss business in person. But that doesn’t mean they don’t still weigh in on decisions.

My guess is each boss has a messenger that goes and delivers information to the other families. That messenger might even be an associate or low level solider who is able to work directly with the boss, especially ones who are blood family members. Like Chin Gigante’s son I assume did that back in the day.

Some of these “associates” really work directly for the boss instead of being under a soldier. They have small titles or even are kept from being made to keep them out of getting long sentences. But their lack of a heavy title hides their true power. Like Michael Perisco is an assocate, right? But he’s the son of the boss so he has a lot more power than a normal associate.

That’s what I’m guessing Todaro Jr. did down in Florida when he supposedly consulted with New York about Violi as underboss. I doubt Todaro was sitting down at brunch in Boca with Frank Cali and Barney Bellomo, lol. Each boss probably sent their representative to give him their blessing.

The Colombos are the weakest and the smallest of the 5 families that anyway had common bussinesses and for sure they want to know who run the colombo family day-to-day operations.

Not confined on constant basis he needed one not because of loss of motor skills per say lot to do with respiratory problems and at his age in the joint for all those years I am surprised he made it that long.


And yeah he still stood up for what he believed in and for the most part his entire family has and still is the woman in that family have more balls then many of the fucken guys crumbling after they take the oath ! Fuck don’t take it .

To be honest, yeah alot of those guys were sick but all the mafia did was offering what used to b illegal but is now legal. Besides the scams and the hustling, they offered protection, loans, gambling and alot of Sh*t that the government has since made legal which in turn has decreased or at the very least put a dent on their rackets. Government restrictions and legislations have also made it harder for infiltrating unions and for example the garbage haul industey

I would prefer mobsters in my neighborhood over sp*cs and crips doing drivebys at wafflehouse and selling crack to kids over the McDonalds counter. How the government is more focused is on the mob is beyond me, must be the money they were able to bring in.

Too put it in perspective, was/is the mob so bad seeing how most of THEIR activities has become state run nowadays, the government is hypocritical af. I would prefer seeing the real nasty dangerous criminals behind bars compared to those who mostly kept to themselves and those who chose to interact and do business with them? (yes i know there are plenty of cases where the mob pushed into civilians lifes and businesses, but in the bigger picture they were mostly gents.

They are responsible for alot of vegas, musicians and pop culture. The government should do with the mafia what Tokyo does to the Yakuza - TAX THEM! Then the mob and state would be best friends believe me
Posted By: Luxurydog

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/09/19 11:18 PM

And if you compare the government and all the sh*t they have done to other people through the years and what they are Even currently doing - most mobsters would come out as saints.

Why a mobster killing in a mobster war is viewed different than a politician ordering a soldier to kill is so different? Because we're brainwashed

The government abduct people, unknowingly and unwillingly drug people, CIVIL F*CKING FORFEITURE tons of other life ruining sick practices are going on everyday. Yet neighborhood "governments" deserve to die and rot in hell.

Sorry but government hypocracy really gets under my skin

You do realise all the mob families are heavily involved with drugs and don't have any moral compunction about who they sell it to?

There are at least a thousand, conservative estimate, members of organised crime in the states of New York and New Jersey. Is there a college these people attend to get a degree in the mafia, or more likely, these people are in to the same petty street crime as the black gang members you refer to before they're recruited into the mafia.

What do you think gangs like the Tanglewood Boys are for?

Hell, the Philadelphia LCN is basically a more organised, slightly finessed version of traditional black street gangs.

I had to laugh reading at Persico's rap sheet, too. Attempted rape one of the myriad things he was accused of. Like people such as him or Franzese or Cacace have any moral higher ground over anyone else.

He had a stable home life, his father a law firm stenographer. His son intelligent enough to attend a good college.

It's not like black inner-city kids raised by junkie mothers in single-parent homes surrounded by an institutionally biased system have opportunities like that.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/10/19 03:46 PM

Franzese and Persico aren't rapists, Moe. Do you believe everything you read on the internet? Or just when it's something negative about so called members of organized crime? Carmine Persico was loved, Moe. Did more for Brooklyn than just about anyone. Did he off a few people? Sure. He was no angel, but he did way more good than bad. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and everyone in Brooklyn who is hurting right now.

I don't want to sound racist but statistically speaking you are more likelly to get stabbed, mugged, raped and killed by some other ethnic groups rather than italians. I just think priorities are wrong. I would prefer a harder line on these harder, more violent gangs rather than a bunch of gloryfied scam artists with a few killers in their organization.
Then again I would like to point out that the US government are selling drugs in other countries, they sell guns to millitias and fanatics and deliberately destabilize other, weaker countries which in turn makes millions suffer.
I am NOT saying LCN is great and good, but they are so much better than many others.

How would you know if they were or weren't?

It's just hard to suppress a chuckle when you read his rap sheet on his obit on the BBC and then to have people act like he was persecuted by the government or something.

Prison isn't supposed to be a holiday camp for these people like it was back in the 60s and 70s. Those days are over. Persico lived to what, 85.

What age are most people expected to live to?

And Luxurydog, of course black people are more statistically likely to be responsible for the things you mention, but it's irrelevant to any discussions about LCN to be honest.

The life circumstances of most mobsters are completely different to the life circumstances of black hoodlums.

Name one mobster that grew up in a Cabrini-Green situation.

None of this is to make it sound like I'm defending black crime statistics. I'm just saying you have to realise there's sociocultural reasons for it that transcend people actively choosing to pursue a life of crime. Most of these black guys don't have the agency of people like Anthony Nicodemo or your Persico or Galante or Orena grandchild.

With all the money yuppies like Persico or Orena grandchildren grow up with what possible justification is there for pursuing crime over something more magnanimous?

First off your comparison is biased because you're narrowing whites down to one sub group, Italians, and weighing their crime statistics against all blacks.

Secondly, these stats have been highly contested. They're often outdated, and they don't account for economic factors playing a role in the same trends. Correlation doesn't necessarily equal causation.

Interestingly enough, in the 1930s and 40s most of them did. And notice this was the era where the mob had the most class. It wasn't until the mob became more suburban that they got trashier and began to further resemble the style of other drug gangs.

There's probably a lot more elderly people who are victims of white collar crime than there are elderly people who are victims of violent crime.

Look at this: http://www.ladbible.com/now/viral-s...derly-mum-into-buying-new-doors-20161015

I guarantee you there lots more door-to-door salesmen and tradesmen who would have no compunctions about taking advantage of older people. A lot of older people, unfortunately, have no clue about personal finances and it puts a strain on their children knowing that there are sharks out there, much like the guy in the linked story.

Eyh, if you choose to send your money to a nigerian prince thats on you.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/10/19 06:18 PM

The Nigerian Prince (or the Russian hacker) is going to rip your grandmother off for far more than any of the minority street gangs will. That's the point.

Predatory sales tactics to the elderly is a serious problem, especially to elderly people living alone. The legality of it is in a gray area because of decreasing business regulations. A lot of salespeople are instructed to deceive the elderly, to say the kinds of things they'll fall for, and for the most part they get away clean. This is a much bigger threat to the elderly than violent crime, even in high crime areas.

Im not saying against it, the world is sh*t in many ways.
My point earlier was only that I think its worthwile to crack more down on more upfront violent crime.
The state should offer lectures and educate oldfolks maybe, unless the state is in on the scam which honestly wouldn't surprise me much.

People can call both me and my statements bias but its motherf*cking facts. And I stick with my opinion that scam artists where you "choose" to give your money away may be more lucrative but much better than gunpoint robbries at ATM Machines. Which is more common, accepted and encouraged among black, latin and those types of gangs. I promise I don't hate minorities although you can interpret it like that if you're that delicate eveb though i disclaimed it. I dont really care tbh.
Posted By: OakAsFan

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/10/19 06:46 PM

Actually, you presented no facts. You just parroted the widely contested statement that minority gangs are more dangerous than white organized crime groups. There is really no scientific way to determine this. Most of the stats are not applicable because there are so many other factors at play (poverty, age, how gangs and the mob use each other, and several other factors). Again, correlation doesn't equal causation. The most accurate conclusion is that the mafia and street gangs are both dangerous.

I'd bet the guy who accidentally hit John Gotti's son with a car wished he lived in a gang area instead of a mob controlled area.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/10/19 07:00 PM

The guy whose jaw was broken by Carmine Persico's grandson probably wishes a gang member asked him for his lighter instead.

All the guys who crossed paths with Junior Gotti when he was using his surname to start gang assaults on random people probably wished they encountered the son of a gang member instead.

The guy who spoke to the girlfriend of Carmine Galante's nephew would probably have wished to have spoken to a gang member's girlfriend instead, were he still alive.

Or maybe it doesn't make a difference?

Totally, but you are painting the wrong picture here I dunno how to respond, i disagree because the point is the scale.

Wiki:


According to the National Crime Victimization Survey in 2002, the black arrest rate for robbery was 8.55 times higher than whites, and blacks were 16 times more likely to be incarcerated for robbery than non-Hispanic whites. Robberies with white victims and black offenders were more than 12 times more common than vice versa

I hate to be repetitive, but every time you do this, I have to set the record straight. These stats overlook too many other factors. Poverty, age, quality of education, and many others. Correlation does not equal causation.

Whether it was Junior Gotti and his crew of steroid freaks busting heads or the Scrawny Guy and his crew of glorified gang members rolling drunks in Margate, the unproved assaults by the young punks from the second generation are the most annoying to me. I know that neither of their dads were fathers of the year, but they each had a chance to follow a different path. There is no excuse for attacking civilians who because of who their dads were really couldn't even fight back.

I don't think that you can say that Carmine Persico or any other mob boss was a good guy, on balance they do far more harm than good. I am not a liberal by any means but guys like Persico and Gotti were portrayed much differently by the media and perceived much differently by the general public than guys like Jeff Fort or Tookie Williams or El Chapo. I am sure that there are people from their neighborhoods or towns who could point to some nice things that they did in the community. Heck, some people in Columbia loved Escobar. Good deeds after a guy has murdered his way to the top don't excuse all of the death and suffering that he likely caused, be the guy Italian, Black, Mexican of whatever else.

I don't think concluding that both the mob and gang members are bad is party to any political ideology. The fact that it needs to be explained shows how hysterical this country has become.

Whats those fancy words got to so with anything?
It's still facts if it where the other way around and whites was the poverished prosecuted gangbangerz I would still say the same about them. It got nothing to do with the rotation of the moon or how fast the grass grows in sweden. It is wat it isno matter how you sugecoat it.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/11/19 12:20 AM

But it's not what it is, because you're claiming correlation establishes causation. There are other factors that produce similar statistics. Income and quality of education, for instance. These factors could just as likely be the catalyst for criminal behavior.

As far as fancy words, the terminology I'm using is pretty much 12th grade reading level. If it's not making sense, let me know what you need help with.

I went through 12th grade 12 times so that's bs!
Jk, but had to google correlation-causation
Why don't blacks promote gambling and such at the same scale? God knows that poor people gamble the most.

Also, you can correlate causiate whatever you want, it's still how it is even if it is because of unfair systems or whatever. You can't argue against it with that argument.

You can't say that someone didn't climb mount everest because there was so much wind up their ass they levitated.

Re: Rip Carmine Persico - 03/11/19 12:26 PM

We're not arguing how anything is. You're trying to establish cause, and making a weak case.

You brought race into this discussion, to make the case that the mob isn't as bad as black gangs, all because you were triggered by someone's argument that someone like Persico shouldnt be put on a pedestal. So, if you're going to try to make your case with crime stats, you need to find stats that couldnt also be explained by poverty and education level.

A scumbag's a scumbag's a scumbag. Race has nothing to do with it. You're wasting your time arguing with it. It thrives on these pointless arguments. It still has yet to answer the question of what it does for a living or how it contributes to society in a positive way. If you're patient enough for 2020, it will take another hiatus.
