    Part 14: • Frankie Pasqua on Why ...
    Part 1: • Lucchese Hitman Frank ...
    --------
    In this clip, Frankie Pasqua detailed why it's impossible for the Mob to thrive in today's technological and legal climate. He described how many of the fictionalized gangster stories in film and television today are based on street activity from the 1950s and 1960s. Frankie urged kids to invest their time in school and securing legal sources of income to avoid things he and others of his ilk have experienced.

      I saw him years later in 2017. He said Johnny went up and from the middle up was like 100 boxes all empty. He found a slot in the wall and sees the box in the room. Dickhead dropped his phone in the room. He had to break the door down and trip the alarm.

      It’s only because the mafia lost its strong hold. They were the most violent and powerful murder syndicate in the country. Even the gangs were afraid and knew their lines. Imagine how that fear would translate to the random gangs and petty thieves if the penalty for fucking up in Italian controlled business and areas and neighborhoods (virtually everywhere) was death? At this time we are talking about, you couldn’t put muscle them. They had families in every region of the country. The FBI was enlisting their help to track down KKK members suspected in the deaths of civil rights workers. They were a force to be feared.

They don't respect boundaries or anything else. Even if you're stronger they have the ability to simply bleed you out over time. You can't conduct business if you are constantly under pressure from every direction having every facet disrupted by hit and runs. It's just no longer a situation where anyone would tolerate that kind of exclusive racket. Put simply every low life wants their piece of the pie and if someone else happens to be holding it well guess who won't be holding on to that delicious 😋 🥧. Times have and always will change.
