Why do people take so much pride in people running all these illegal schemes and doing all these screwed up things? Is it worth being prideful about those who have murdered, vandalized, harmed, & abused others before?

when it comes to mafias nyc wins it all. nyc was a mafia cesspool back in the days.

i know in brownsville murder inc was a ruthless Jewish gang. In fact my Jewish teacher grew up in brownsville during the era and told me their was a shooting literally every single day. He has seen more stuff then what the ghetto kids see nowadays in america.

Yet another stupid thread by this guy that should be summarily closed. Washington, DC does not have and never has had any organized crime.

Isn't there a ban on threads created by people who can't construct sentences properly?

yea dc wasnt known for mafias. it was just known for young black hustlers with drug crews which weren't really organized at all.

You'd be foolish to think that people don't wear these stats as a badge of toughness. It's childish and sad.
