Hate to say it but big cities were safer too when the Mafia was running things more. My dad was only semi-connected but when I was having bullying problems as a child, all my father had to do was say the word and suddenly the punks that were harrassing me would cross the street just to avoid me.

One can talk about how the Mafia was corrupt and made everything more expensive but the only difference now is that it is the politicians cashing in on all the graft and now the streets are much less safe.

It’s a sad indictment of our government when certain well-known families provide better security than the government itself.
