Johnny thinks my claim that over the last decade there has been more organized crime activity in New York involving the five Mafia families than all the Russian, Albanian, and Chinese groups in New York combined is just hype.
Well, let's see here shall we? I'll provide a list of all the indictments involving the five Mafia families in New York from 2000 to the present. I'd also provide those of the Russian, Albanian, and Chinese groups but, because Johnny would just accuse me of holding back some of them, I'll let him provide his own evidence by posting all indictments of those groups in New York over the same time period.
Dollars to donuts Johnny is too damn lazy to even do enough research on these other groups (except the Albanians of course). But if he does do it, he'll see I'm right. In which case you can bet he'll try to make up some excuse or change the subject in order to avoid looking like the idiot he is. Bottom line, he's talking out of his ass once again and can't back it up with actual facts.
C'mon Johnny, prove me wrong.

You slimy piece of shit. You know damn well I haven't made any of those up. They include the crime family or families, the main people indicted, how many, the indictment counts, etc. You're free to do your Google searches and check any of them. Anyone is free to double check them. You're just trying to find an excuse to not back up your BS.
C'mon pal. You're all about you posting up what you can find on Albanians and then waiting for others to post up what they can find on whatever group you're trying to compare them to. Well, here's your chance. And as an added bonus, you can also add in any Russian and Chinese indictments you can find.
Quit trying to sleeze your way out of this and actually back yourself up.

You know damn well I have made nothing up. I've posted this list before and you've never accused me of making it up. But you are now because you are desperately trying to find an excuse not to provide your own evidence. You don't have to research everything I posted. If you're so sure I made stuff up, just show me one example. There must be something there you recognize as made up or you wouldn't have made the accusation. Oh but wait, you already accused me of hyping once before until I proved you wrong with this list. And now that you've been proven wrong, you're just trying to backpeddle.
Quit being a coward Johnny. Provide the Russian, Albanian, and Chinese indictments or at least give me just one example above of where I made something up.

If you weren't prepared to back yourself up and prove me wrong, then you shouldn't have said anything. But you opened your fucking mouth anyway and got yourself in a jam once again. And now, just like I said you would, you are trying to make up one excuse after another to get out of it.
The list of associates in the list above were those included in the indictments as associates. It has nothing to do with the media. It has to do with what the indictments said. Quit mealy mouthing and be a man for once in your pathetic life and just admit your were wrong or prove me wrong.
You're sinking fast Johnny. Here's a chance for you to show everyone once and for all I'm full of shit. You don't have to research the whole list. Just give ONE example where I made something up. But you won't because you can't. Just like I knew you couldn't. I never expected you to actually back yourself up. This thread was simply to show everyone that it's you who is full of shit.

i can't even pick out indictments from the list dickhead. all you did was give us "8 associates of the gambinos indicted", "6 associates of the geneoves indicted" like wtf? you're a mess as a person.
please shut up, you're too hard to deal with, you're just too much of a dumbass. you and your made up list dicko. even though the albanian/russian/chinese indictments make much much much much more, i am not going to bother with evenr making up the list. you just had this list on a saved file WHICH IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING SAD AND MESSED UP.
so i'll leave it to you big mouth, list all the albanian/russian/chinese indictments on here. if you leave any out, i'll fill in the rest, but you make the list sir-dick.
your game, you play it. also, admit you were wrong about marijuana in italy. i am not doing what you (a dickhead) asks when you didn't apoligize like a bitch when i told you too.

Most of them I have included the names of anyone who was a captain or higher. I also included the charges involved and how many total defendants. As well as the month and year.
C'mon Google boy, you are so good at Googling. If you doubt any of them, just Google them and prove me wrong.
I'm not going to do your leg work for you. You are the one who started this by saying I was just hyping the Italians. Well, I have provided a list of the Mafia's indictments in New York over the past decade. Now it's up to you to prove me wrong since you said I was.
If you were so sure I'm wrong as you pretended to be, you must have information that proves me wrong and supports your reason for thinking so. Or maybe you were just talking out of your ass once again, got caught in a lie, and now you're backed into another corner.

First, you started this by saying I was just hyping the Mafia when you had no reason to think so. You just decided to talk out of your ass as usual and now you're stuck.
Second, the difference is, I've actually researched the indictments of Russian, Chinese, and Albanian groups in New York over the same time period. All of them combined don't even come close to those of the five Mafia families, despite all the media hype otherwise.
You just do research (actually frantic Google searches) on Albanians alone and don't do jack shit of any research on any other groups. No wonder you think the Albanians are the end all, be all of organized crime. And of course, because you're Albanian.
And now you're saying they are the most powerful not only in Europe, but also in New York and worldwide. I know you'll backpeddle later on and say you were just kidding. But it's obvious that you really do believe this.
Bottom line Johnny, you're a coward.

listen molestor.... you call me a coward for not admitting i was wrong even though the indictments are not up yet but yet at the same time, you're the one who won't answer on the marijuana thread because he was wrong. you're the one who still does not admit he was wrong about the heroin, human smuggling, prostitution, car thefts and marijuana in italy. when you man up, let me know.
mannnnn, it's hilarious to see you contradict yourself. you do it between 2-3 posts too. so it's funny because all i have to do is like scroll up and see a contradiction.

i don't know for sure. if i had to choose, i would choose the albanian criminal faction over the lcn. it seems like a more likely scenario. the YACS group alone has 300 members. that is bigger then any family.

Well once again, you're contradicting yourself. It wasn't too long ago that you yourself said that the Mafia was still clearly the strongest group in New York. But we're just supposed to believe something changed between now and then? Well, something did change - you're opinion.
And for the record, the YACS groups include many of different Balkan origins. That's the whole reason for their name. And 300 is not bigger than any family. Each family has anywhere from 100-200 made members and hundreds (or thousands) of associates depending on what member-to-associate ratio you want to go with.
I think you know as well as I do that the Albanians don't measure up to the Mafia in New York. But you choose to argue otherwise because of nothing more than your damned pride.

i always knew the albanian criminals were close but the saviano and fbi report convinced me. that is what changed my opinion. i didn't see those two statements before.

lmaooo. first of all, since you like indictments for proof so much. go back to all the YACs indictments. you will see almost every single person indicted under that group from new york to michigan to california turned out albanian. except for one croatian and one italian guy.
the reason for the name is because of the albanians from former yugoslavia. the ones with -ic on their last names because of the yugoslav communist government changing their names. go see the indictments if you want proof.

You've got to be kidding me.
First, regardless of the fact that he said "clans," Saviano was clearly talking with reference to the Rudaj organization. As I've said over and over again, all this talk about the Albanians pushing aside the Mafia has stemmed from that single group. And time has shown all the talk to be just that - talk. Not even one other example of any Albanian group confronting the Mafia or cutting into it's rackets. It's the exact same thing we've seen in past decades with the blacks, the Colombians, the Chinese, and the Russians. Now it's the Albanians. It probably won't be long before another group is on the scene and being proclaimed to be challenging the Mafia. It makes for good press and so the media eats it up but it's not based on reality.
Second, I'm getting tired of you referring to this mysterious FBI report. All you have is it being referenced in an article. There is no FBI report that has said the Albanians are taking over the Italians and Russians in New York. If there is, please provide it or quit citing it.

And I should add that I've repeatedly provided direct FBI sources that say the Mafia is still the most powerful in New York. But you ignore those while readily accepting some phantom FBI report that nobody can find.
The indictments clearly show the Mafia is still easily the strongest in New York. They are the most diversified in both illicit and legitimate activities. The feds don't even consider the Russians, Chinese, and Albanians to be in the same definitive category as the Mafia. They refer to the new groups as "criminal enterprises" while the Mafia is "organized crime." These new groups lack the organizational structure and diversity of operations that has allowed the Mafia to survive for so long.

copy and past the report dickhead. i'm not lifting a finger for you. you're simply not worth that much work. you're barely worth three sentences which i why i barely give you even that.

you have never provided a direct report citing the mafia is the strongest in new york. i want a 2009 article, no older then that. then this argument will be done. the only reason i think the Albanian criminals are now stronger is because of the article. if you provide an article saying the mafia is the strongest (a 2009 article) then that is all that needs to be said.

lmfaoooo, you're so sad. the indictments? the indictments show that italians are caught more then anybody. that is all the indictments show. you know very well the Albanian criminal clans are almost invulnerable to the feds due to their language, and cohesiveness to each other as well as their unwilling to testify.
you simply add your own theory to the italians numbering more arrests then others.

Huh? How can I copy and paste the report when it doesn't even exist? If it does, we both know you would have been waiving it around, posting the link to it in huge, multi-color font for days or weeks now. But you haven't because it doesn't exist. So you can stop referring to it.

Your article is based on an FBI report that doesn't exist.
Here's two articles below. While the framework of both of them is about the newer emerging groups, both say that the Mafia is still the strongest. And the second one has a video with an FBI agent saying the same thing. And notice how in the first article, they have go back once again to Rudaj in order to talk about Albanians.

How many indictments and arrests there are is a direct result of organized crime activity. Even when making allowances for the new groups being harder to crack because of language barriers, differences in organization, etc. that doesn't completely account for the huge difference in indictments between them and the five Mafia families in New York. The Mafia is indicted more often because it's a bigger priority. It's a bigger priorty because it's more stronger and more active there than these other groups. After all is said and done as far as articles and off the cuff quotes go, the real proof in the pudding is indictments.
