No there's not.

I don't have inside knowledge of what's going in Buffalo. All I know is what's published in the media. So if I change my argument, it's because new evidence has come to light. Duh.

10) C'mon


Why are you ignoring the fact that what this Canadian reporter is saying DIRECTLY CONFLICTS with what Buffalo and NYS Media and the American Federal Government have been saying for years?

It's not that "Canada L.E. is not reliable." But American L.E. and Canadian L.E. are saying two conflicting things. And who is in a position to know more about issues in Buffalo? American L.E.

Do you understand this? You must not have read my earlier posts in which I said this.

Fino was outed as an informer and left the life in 1990, for Christ's sakes. Yes, he's a smart guy and obviously knows how the mob works, but his information is 28 years out of date.
For comparison, that's like asking Sammy Gravano about who's in charge of the Gambino Family. Sure Sammy might have some insights, but how is he going to know any more than the rest of us.
Not to mention that Fino has said the Buffalo Mafia is dead, and then backtracked and claimed it's still alive. And his change in tune seems to coincide with him hyping his upcoming book.

Of course, I have mentioned that point about Fino various times in the past but, again, you must not have read my previous posts.

Which sons and associates have been locked up in recent years, Bensonhurst? Are you talking about the Violis?

On multiple occasions you've attempted to justify how the Buffalo Mafia could spring back up and regain power despite the fact that the vast majority of evidence goes against that.
