I genuinely think we have reached a new age for the NY mob. Gone are the days of open-street hits and mass murders of faction leaders resulting from internicide war. People understand that bodies bring attention now and I believe that the families will once again prosper.

Thoughts?


Over the past decade or so the mob has had to adjust, the decline in the number of hits is a part of that. It's weird though, I mean there is still hundreds of members in all the families and then thousands of associates and you hardly ever hear about killings anymore. They will always happen sure, but you feel they will continue to be years apart in the and even more so in the future.
