New Orleans had a serious crime problem within just a few days of its founding.

This is where the Union Corse (Corsican Union) was born. That's the predecessor to the Italian and Sicilian Mafia that came along two centuries later.

I know, it was home for Carlos Marcello also, but that is a whole different kind of crime. That is organized and for the most part out of sight. I was talking about the kind of crime we are seeing now, street crime, and that started as I said with the birth of the welfare state and political correctness. This is all part of the same socialists plan to take over.

The Corsican Union indulged in daylight stickups and beatings right from the beginning.
