    Wait, I'm confused. So the cops knew that internal affairs were setting them up?

    So in prison for 30 years. Completely out of touch with gang activities and probably doesnt know 90% of the active members. I expect a dangerous psychopath but not one quite so dumb

    These guys don't stay out of touch. They don't lose their rank when they go inside.

    Eugene was a Capo at the time he went down and held control over his crew whilst in prison.

    The 'zips' , the Sicilians, are going crazy over this, they're the ones who installed Cali as boss.

    Expect bloodshed.

    Rumour has it Cali got a dead fish wrapped in newspaper. Neither him or his wife thought it was fishy.

    Historically, Carmine always said that the Gambinos were nothing more than a glorified crew.

    La Cosa Nostra was decimated in the 80s and 90s by electronic surveillance, RICO prosecutions and rats. What's left now is a pale imitation.

    We could do with mandatory 30 year stretches over here, the gangs would collapse overnight.

    If Eugene Gotti was behind the killing then i'd say his release from prison will be a short one. Whacking a boss will either bring more bloodshed or someone is going to be whacked from the Gotti side. Then again, for something like this to happen i'd imagine there must have been a reason for his killing, like maybe Frank was informing on other mobsters and the order to kill him was green lit. Interesting story.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    The other 4 families of New York, the Lucchese, Colombo, Bonnano, Genovese are refusing to acknowledge Eugene Gotti as Boss of the Gambino Family.

    This proves that the hit on Cali was unsanctioned.


    What they'll do is remove the problem crew.


    Gene Gotti is a dead man walking.


    For his sake I hope the Feds get him first . Put this old man away for good.

    Billy Batts: Ah..
    Tommy: I don't shine shoes anymore.
    Billy Batts: Relax, would ya. What's got into you? I haven't seen you in a long ****ing time, and I'm breaking your balls a little bit, I'm only kidding with ya.
    Tommy: Well, sometimes you don't sound like you're kidding, you know, there's a lotta people here.
    Billy Batts: I'm only kidding with ya.
    Tommy: It's OK.
    Billy Batts: I don't mean to offend you.
    Tommy: I'm sorry.
    Billy Batts: I'm sorry too.
    Tommy: It's okay.
    Billy Batts: Salut, Tommy.

    In New York ist certainly is, all 5 families are still active, plus the DevCavalcante's from New Jersey.





    The Nationwide Commission is a thing of the past,.only NY, Philly, Boston, Chicago and Detroit remain active.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    Biggest Boss in America at the moment would be Liborio 'Barney' Bellemo.

    Genovese Boss.


    The Gambinos are split down the middle, the Sicilian faction controlled the family through Cali. The Americans don't like the zips.


    Hence why the Gottis have made a fatal move imo..

    It wasn't gene, it was a 2.bit junkie who cali refused to allow date his niece.

    Unbelievable the boss of the gambino family taken out like that.

    As for gene, he never ever struck me from everything I've read as a boss type of guy

    No way Frankie Cali was taken out by a junkie, what type of retard would kill the boss of NY's second biggest crime family?

    The latest reports on the wire is that the other 4 fams are going to dismantle the Howard Beach crew and install a new boss from the zips.
