Famous Irish mafia families?

LANDSTROM

OLEARY'S

MCDANALD

There's not much organised crime in Ireland and "Mafia"'s an Italian word.

Improvement on this answer by Zez:

While there may not be much organized crime in Ireland, there were several Irish "families" in organized crime in the US and other countries.

For example: Frank Wallace and the Gustin Gang from Boston

James "buddy" McLean and his "Winter Hill Gang"

Charlestown Mob in Boston, led by brothers Bernard and Edward "Punchy" McLaughlin

And more.

Also, the word "Mafia" is not specifically an Italian word. It first appeared in the Sicilian dictionary in 1865. The word is of uncertain origin, but is believed by many Sicilian linguists and historians to have come from the Arabic term "mu afah" which means (roughly) "to gain inviolability (or strength)"

It is also widely believed that the word may take it's root from the Italian word mafioso (sometimes used by Sicilians and spelled as mafiusi). The word "mafioso" meaning a man who is brave or bold.

The term mafia has been a misnomer for centuries, commonly misused to describe organized crime families.

By the way, I'm Italian. And yes, I am aware that Sicilian is a sub-dialect of Italian, but it's as different from Italian as Spanish is from Italian. If you doubt it, put a Sicilian and and an Italian in a room together. If they don't fight from bad blood, we'll fight from misunderstanding.

What gang is bigger crips or bloods?

The Crips started in the 1960's and the Bloods started in the 1970's. The Crips used to outnumber the Bloods but nowadays they both have large numbers.

What does 660 mean in crip terms?

The Crips don't use numbers to represent them, ur thinking of the Folk Nation gangs, such as the Gangster Disciples, the Crips gang is NOT apart of the Folk Nation, therefore they don't share any of their knowledge. The Crips gang is apart of the Crip Alliance......

Therefore ''660'' has zero meaning to the Crips gang.

What are the similarities between organized crime terrorist groups?

Organized crime is a a criminal enterprise which main reason for existing is to make money - an illegal/unlawful "corporation" would probably be the best way to describe it. They rarely cause deaths outside their own circles or spheres of influence. Too much noteriety or publicity is bad for them and lessens their flow of income. Terrorist organizations exist simply to draw attention to themselves - make themselves well known - and feared - and cause indiscriminate deaths in the pursuit of their goals. Both are the VERY OPPOSITE of one another.

What are the similarities between white-collar crime and organized crime?

Did frank lucas and Julie lucas get back together after he got out of jail?

In answer to previous questions, Eva Lucas' real maiden name was Julie Farrait. They met when Frank Lucas was in Puerto Rico. It doesn't seem she was ever a beauty queen, much less Miss Puerto Rico. They had a 3 year old daughter named Francine when they were both arrested. (Francine has now started her own non-profit to help children of prisoners.)

Frank and Julie never divorced and it appears that Julie and Frank now have a young son together.

Who 's better crips or ms-13?

There are no 'better' gangs. Gangs are a foolish association designed to take children who live in fear and make them 'tough by association'. They act aggressive and selfish because they can.

It is much like a pack of rabid chihuahua dogs, except these children should know better.
