You keep saying blacks. Most black people do not admire the mafia. I don't know where you're getting this. You're talking about gangsta rappers and party rappers. The reason why the latter admires the mob is because the mob is at the stop of the chain on the streets, which is what it's all about to them. It's a street thing. I've never met a black person who admires Italian gangsters. Ever. Of course I'm out here in Cali where nobody cares about the mob.


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
