i know it's all about trust, there is a sacred code that no mobster is supposed to break called the omerta... it means you can never reveal any information about your organization, can't kill somebody in front of their family, etc. That's another reason the mob isn't doing as well as it used to i think, cause people talk too much now, like that Sammy Gravano guy that told the police everything he knew just so he could save his ass, and he's the reason all of the gambino family was arrested.
I know they're still around, i was just wondering if they're still as big, cause you don't hear anything about them on the news anymore. Cause in the early 90s when John Gotti was arrested, the top people from the main gambino family were arrested to, and the whole organization fell apart.... I think they've re-built it now, they're probably tryin to keep low, and not to get too much attention.
I think your father needs to be italian to be in the mafia (good thing i'm half italian, now i got more possibilties
)
bella, i know there's like a section of the italian mafia in Hamilton... 2 guys were killed and it was connected to some italian mob. I don't know too much about it though. You aren't related to any mobsters are you? heh
