Arena - gay. D'Amato - gay. Mormando - gay.

Those are just the guys who came out and/or outed. Everything is not black and white. There are gay guys who are tough and would be drawn to that life. There are straight guys who can't fight their way out of a paper bag. There are Italians who don't like pasta. Irish who don't like alcohol. Asians who aren't good at Math....

There is undoubtedly a miniscule amount of gay/bi mobsters in New York but there is definitely approximately half a dozen.

Going by the statistics of how many NBA, NHL and soccer professionals are in the closet, then I would imagine at least 6 gay/bi mobsters out of a total of 1-1500 is not outlandish at all.


I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
