I don't know why you don't classify the K&A Gang as a "mob group." They made a ton of money through crime while working together. What more do you need? They don't exist anymore though.

That said there has never been an Irish Mob in the United States. There has never been a group of exclusively Irish or Irish American criminals in the United States. There have been groups of predominately Irish criminals but never one that Irishness was the uniting factor.

Except for, alledgedly, the original Aryan Brotherhood. But that's certainly not the case anymore.
