I never even heard of the A.B.I. guys until recently cuz I just moved to the BX a few months ago. I wanted to find out more about these guys so right now I just googled gang ABI, came up with this forum. Some interesting talk on there. Very recent too.
Wow I thought there was some ignorant stuff on the city-data forums. It pales in comparison to the forum I linked below.
Yeah Albanians are crazy. They're kind of like the white-trash of white people. One of the few white ethnicities to, for the most part, convert to Islam, which definitely sets them apart. Only a handful of other white people ever did that (Chechens and Tatars I guess).
The whole shooting off guns thing is annoying too. Kind of reminds of me of hillbillies in Kentucky. Albos...this is the Bronx, not Appalachia!
There are a decent number of Albanians up here in Woodlawn/Yonkers. I usually just try to avoid them if possible. They have this crazy thing with grudges, its in their culture. If you mess with them they'll act like everything is cool at the time, but 5-10 years down the road out of the blue they'll just mess you up or kill you. No other culture that I know of holds grudges to the extent that Albanians do.
One of the local pizza places up here is run by Albanians and if the owner gets mad I've seen him pull his pistol out from under his waistband and start waving it around.
Lots of the Albanians are involved with the mob too, they're all connected with their relatives back home in Albania who run all of the heroin rackets across Europe. Crazy group of people, thats all I have to say.

"My gang/nationality is tougher than your gang/nationality" type mess. Mean while.. real gangs (like Al-Queda, Mafia, Republican Party) keeps getting stronger....
Not to be an ass, since I generally don't like to generalize like that, but Albanians seem to me like a mixture of all the extreme qualities of Greeks and Italians. That's the impression I've gotten.

I'll say this.....from my looks around neighborhoods, and looks at real estate listings, them housing prices in the Bronx are sure up and going!
Yea it is. The average listing for renting a 1 bedroom (excluding luxury apt.) ranges from $950-$1200, nothing less. You know what that means: no more affordability in NYC. Once the Bronx is gone, whats left? Nassau? Westchester? God forbid, JERSEY? The city needs to acquire more land

No, it doesn't. It needs to a) build more housing and b) lower taxes to encourage job growth and contruction.
Also, what's wrong with moving out of the city. Thousands of people do that every year.
