Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Good stuff posted here. I like the fact that talkreal uses documented facts to back up his assertions while west side just constantly parrots his same old tired opinions over and over hoping that the repitition will eventually give him credibility. Why someone would be so hell bent on trying to conv...

Re: Family membershithat many guys.p totals
i agree that there is little to no activity that you can find on the internet. that's my point though - that you can find it on the internet. I wouldn't be surprised if there are less than 5 made guys left down here, but thats because, as you correctly pointed out, that old man Carlos didn't make th...

Re: Family membership totals
thewestside considers media reports and public FBI reports to be gospel. if the media doesn't say it or the FBI doesn't put it in the public domain, then it doesn't exist - at least according to him. don't get me wrong, westside does some great work and is always on top of the latest news, but his h...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
still that's a pissload of money to net in just over 2 yrs. it doesn't sound like their operation had that many mouths to feed either - although im sure they were kicking a lot upstairs.

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
So do I, and my point was that you have offered nothing more than that yourself. If you have personal reasons why you won't that's fine - that's my excuse too. But a blanket arbitrary statement that there is no LCN activity in New Orleans just because you say so - well, forgive me for not buying int...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
It seems that you want to hang your hat on the actual marcello organization. in that, you are correct - the few remnants left are in diapers now for the most part. But you seem to be absolutely sure that there is absolutely no italian mob activity anywhere in new orleans simply because the marcello ...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Yes, but like I have always said, the new regime is young but very old school and under the radar. As long as the FBI is focused on minority gangs and corrupt politicians, these young turks will continue to quietly build their empire. From what I have heard, there is little to no collaboration with ...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Actually you're both wrong. The old structure of the Marcello family is gone, but not the Mafia. Katrina revived organized crime in New Orleans - why else do you think that billions in federal money has poured into the area but no progress has been made? You think Ray Nagin stole it all? And as for ...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Yes, the "Black Hand" was started in Kenner, LA - just outside of New Orleans. Kenner is where the current New Orleans International Airport is located. Kenner started out as an Italian village and is still largely run by Italians.

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
New Orleans is not run by blacks or Mexicans. We just let them think they run things so the law enforcement stays distracted. They all pay.

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
There are a couple of mob-owned restaurants in the New Orleans area still operating. Frank's Restaurant in the French Quarter and Mosc'a Italian Restaurant in Avondale (west bank of New Orleans). You can see remnants of the old crews hanging out but it' unknown if they do anything more than eat and ...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
I live here and I'm telling you otherwise. I talk to a lot of people (on the internet) who live in Cleveland, Kansas City, St. Louis, Milwaukee, etc. and say the same thing. But whatever is left of these families, including New Orleans, federal authorities don't see them as a serious investigative ...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Other than that, there has been no identifiable significant LCN activity in the New Orleans area. There are still a few old time members left but they appear to be no longer active. The family is all but extinct. Then I guess the new generation's strategy to fly below the radar is working. FYI - A&...

Re: The Mob and the Kennedy Assassination
It's not that hard to believe that a disturbed individual like Oswald, with no specialized marksman training outside of the Marine Corps, could get off 3 shots in 6 seconds with a bolt action rifle and hit a moving target from six stories up with no scope. It also just happened that JFK and RFK were...

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)

Re: New Orleans Mafia (Present)
Was there ever an Anselmo that was in the NOLA mafia? Anselmo's have been around New Orleans for quite a long time so it's possible that an Anselmo could have been involved in the local LCN scene. It doesn't appear that anyone from that family held a postion of significance though. There is an Anse...
