Corona Virus Crippling Mob

https://nypost.com/2020/03/29/how-coronavirus-cripples-the-new-york-mafia/

Great article, police is not arresting people no more so they can make a killing

Well they can't really say it's crippling , everything is crippled right now . I'm sure once this is over they'll make some big moves . They just gonna be on pause like the rest of society .

I think that its the same also for the street gangs that can selling dope on every corners like first covid19.

Great points, especially with the borders being all but shut down. The flow of narcotics and other contraband must be affected, has the price of anything, drugs, women, etc. gone up.

Making an assumption, like any market in a scenario like this, price gauging is a possibility.

usually the mafia gets stronger after periods like this as it happened after the second world war

this will help mob .it will take a year or 2 for people to return to the casinos so there more likely to put bets in with larry at the bar.the casinos are all going bankrupt there no way in the world they can ask for some type of bail out from the government rite like there whole industry is based on vice?

If that was what you took away from reading this article reading comprehension is definitely not your strong suit.

Mobsters are not allowed to be kissed on the cheek for at least 90 days.

What was your take away mob scholar?

Cyber crime is the way to go in a period like this one.

Nevertheless, don't forget that once this crisis is over, there will be a lot of consumption. If the mob still has the smarts, they can make a killing then.

I have a feeling the street gangs won't do so well, alot of them use drugs also. It'll be interesting to see how the underground landscape changes when this is over.

the mafia is also strongly involved in gaming online that is never out, the covid19 affects especially drug trafficking, prostitution (but the mafia is not involved in this), construction and waste disposal

And sports betting and corruption no soccer world wide only in Belarus.

Another myth, mafiosi have ever been involved in exploiting prostitution.

Oh the mob is about to jump into this big. Wait till those contracts start getting doled out Hurricane Katrina style.

Organized groups in South Italy will get stronger after this , this whole thing have huge economic impact , a lot of people will turn to mafia for help,loan and so on. It is equal to shooting themselves in the leg,but still desperate times require desperate solutions.

i've never heard this at least in italy, maybe somebody in the united states...

Agree strax. The smart bosses know there is not going to be enough cash coming in right now, so they will tell their family to either not have them kick up for awhile or only kick up a faction of what they are supposed to kick up and save as much money as they can, the ones who are greatly effective by the virus anyway, while those are unaffected will still be kicking up. Once the stay at home order is lifted, the boss will order his family to push money onto the streets, cause their is going to be a lot of people who needs money and the legal means is not going to be enough. The Government stimulus is not going to last long, but it will help some of the people to avoid the clutches of the mafia. This is not just related to the Italians, but the other OC groups too. Street gangs? They are going to be hit harder, as narcotics is usually their main bread and butter, but I would not be surprised if their membership doubles or triples after this is over.

The stimulus checks are a gesture. Nothing more. Unfortunately that's all the working class ever gets. The real money will be in the business loans and private contracts. Look no further than New Orleans post-Katrina. Except this time it will be in cities across the country. There's actually a lot of ways the mob can get into that. The more sophisticated mobsters (Genovese?) certainly will, just like they pounced on the subprime mortgage industry in the 2000s.

I don't think it will hurt the mob too much. People who owe them shylock money still owe it. And sports can't stay shutdown forever, degenerate gamblers gotta gamble.

Yeah, prostitution doesn't have a high priority, it's a grey zone like the strip joints in the US or red lights districts.

I don't see why they couldn't be taxing pimps the way they tax other people making their money illegally.

Some street gangs might be hit harder than others. There's multiple ways to keep the trafficking active and other activities their involved that isn't reliant on narcotics.

mafia members consider pimps inferior, a pimp can't be a made member in a family because is against the 'rules', they didn't apply the 'rule' for drug trafficking instead... they sure tax pimps if they are active in their zone but they are not directly involved

Cartels, gangs and rebels around the world join coronavirus fight

Gangstas don't care about no Coronavirus, still running these streets

Word from El Mayo that the price of Meth, etc. is going to go up.

In Italy, they were able to prevent the spread of the contagion in the central and southern regions, including Sicily.

what do the new york post know?

the only people allowed out the house are workers.. dont forget psychopaths and criminals lol

dont forget this is 2020 after all the mob make alot of money on the internet

capecci said it killed a well knwo genovese guy joseph vito think he drove benny eggs around

Joseph Zito*

It killed a few of genoevese guys ,also Matthew Madonna is infected

Not in NYC, there is no stay at home order here, anyone can go out at anytime, I went to the park and it was packed, cops came by to tell people to stay apart, that's all.

Franco Gabrielli, head of the Italian police, said that Mafia organizations are already deeply enmeshed in parts of the economy "that have not been blocked by the restrictions of Covid-19: the agriculture-food chain, the supply of medicines and medical equipment, road transport."

Joe Vito was a big guy I think in the current age of Manhattan mobsters well liked by all the families. He stakes in alot. But was a soldier I think at best. But close to any and all the bosses in the genovese

Think he was close to ponte and his bros

Anthony Corozzo passed away from covid-19.

Anyone know if Auther Nigro died of covid-19? I know he has been on bad health, just wondering if anyone can confirm.

Gangstas still running NYC:

LMFAO yeah because a few morons shooting each other up over nickelbags are surely "running things"

Augustine “Augie” Guido from the Gambino family, Ronald “Ronnie Mozzarella” Carlucci and Angelo Moccia from the Bonanno family have also died.

covid could change the mafia drastically with the deaths of senior members across all families.
adding to that the early release of veteran members could force families to adjust there admins and crews.
could also bring on a slew of inductions to make up for sudden deaths caused by 19.

A rat was walking right through the heart of 18th Ave, a guy approached him and started yelling hey you fucking rat, the rat turned and said: and what the fuck are you going to do? Do something and I'll knock you the fuck out, the rat said, the guy got quiet real quick and that was that, this was years ago, things have gone even way downhill since then, now imagine if you will this rat rapper dicsucker69 who just got released from prison was to walk through his old neighborhood in Brooklyn, how long do you think it would take for him to get killed or beaten to a pulp, like 2 minutes? So yeah when I say running things, I mean running things.

They would stomp him out like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-eAr9h_jO0

Your hypothetical "dicsucker69" rant still doesn't PROVE that anyone is running anything. Comparing it to a video of a bunch of punk ass teenagers beating a girl unconscious and robbing her doesn't either. What the fuck. Do you even pay attention to your own babbling or just drift in and out?

The guy shows up in literally EVERY thread where an Italian name is mentioned acting like all wiseguys are broke bums these days while claiming that street gang members are the real kingpins of organized crime these days. And to prove this he always posts an article about some petty feud that might not even be drug related

LMAO ahhh I must have been lucky enough to miss his other comments.

Yup, remember when I said nothing would happen to the guy that whacked Cali, while everybody was saying he would be dead in months, "Where were his bodyguards!?", The "Gambinos won't let him get away with this!", LMAO, you guys who get your mob info from movies and reading blogs need to know fantasy from reality, also check the thread with the Aqueduct robbery where people were saying a mob crew has to be behind this, and I said the blacks are behind this, and when the surveillance footage came out, wouldn't you know it was a couple of boys from the hood, I'm just telling people how it really is in NY, or would you rather rely on blogs from people from Europe telling you what's going on in NY?

You kinda sound like someone who was once acquainted with a wannabe wiseguy and after you ratted him out you're now celebrating the fact that you didn't get whacked yet

Running things? Just because the brain dead monkeys that call themselves gangstas cant comprehend that they will go to jail for stupidity that wont even earn them good money, doesnt mean they run things. Ya theres alot of wannbees and posers, but the real wiseguys out there make more than any tizzune ever will.

All I know is that the New Jersey Genovese bust a few months ago was a multimillion operation. The loansharking part of this operation was ran by what was only an "associate" and that alone in itself yielded almost 5 million. How many got busted for this? 6?

One of the "major" Bronx drug sweeps involving 4 gangs and almost 90 people some time ago was netted at only a few grand.

"Running things" ey

...but carry on. Share a few more articles where 40 gangbangers get busted in the council flat for selling child-sized quantities of narcotics to show the world how they got NYC on lock
