    I lived in Bensonhurst in the late 70s early 80s. These guys were literally the protectors. As a young woman, i never felt unsafe. I had a problem with my landlord son threw a brick through my window. The men from the club on the corner found out. They brought him to the club and spoke with him, and i never had another problem. I never had to ask for help they just helped! They knew everything that happened in their neighborhood!

      @lvr8429 I love a person who knew a guy who knew a guy. The police were respected. The police did thier jobs without interference. People in the neighborhood looked out for each other on the daily. It's simple and uncomplicated. If you only knew a guy who knew a guy you should probably rethink commenting on my personal experience. Especially since I actually lived there....with all due respect

      @@Decades-pl2kl. Actually it doesn’t. If you’re not aware, Mark lost money for the first few years because most of his videos do not receive monetization due to their mature content. The subscription channel is what allows Mark to continue making these valuable videos and, since that’s in competition with this free channel, it brings in less than Mr. Beast type money.

    Chris is my favorite guy who talks mob talk, he's absolutely the best guy for this and the closest to the heart of the mafia
    His father started a movement that was truly something that fought the FBI and the problem of what was coming in the whole time
    He's the guy who knew.. back then not in the rear view
    This is a real family, he's a real man like his father before him
    I can see and feel this coming out of him when he speaks

    I worked for a guy that went by the moniker Trigger. I worked for him for 8 years in the 90's. This guy is cut from the same cloth . Best Boss I personally ever had. 2O years working in admin hospital and a prison were dirty. Trigger was good to the neighborhood. Like a Father to me and took care of me. He gave me 5 G in a paper bag for a down on an Auction house. We didn't get the place and I returned the cash the next day. I will just say this, In my life, Ive never had 5 G in my hand since. RIP "Trigger " Joseph Marone, Veteran, Teacher, Neighborhood guy that took care if everyone i ever saw ask, and more we will never know. He cared for all people,colors and styles....He liked people......I love him still ❤ RIP Joe

    I was in the backseat of a car with his sister's son and we were pulled over on 86th St in Dyker Heights. He proceeded to make a right on red and a car chase ennsued down 13th Ave and the side streets. It ended well by as we made our way through backyards after pulling into a driveway, and the cops let it go. This was probably 1980. I guess he didnt teach his nephew this.

      They're experts at destroying families. The restraunts and other fronts they have were all paid for with money and possessions stolen from people who earned what they had honestly. Filling communities with illegal drugs and murdering people without any investigation many of whom were cases of mistaken idenity and I've never heard of any of them refunding the victim's family for their funeral expenses. No payments for the support or education of the victim's children. They will murder someone who won't pay extortion or reports them to the police.

I like Chris…he’s like my Clemenza…yes, criminal, but big heart…so many gems…pick a side, accept consequences, cooperative but don’t cooperate. Last name worked for me and against me, put a bulls eye on me. Your only as good as your last deed, make it a good one. You can’t trade your suffering or pain to hurt another and give them suffering or pain, doesn’t help you. Don’t say anything that would hurt someone else by your words. Ha! I named my pets Doozy batz, gelato, Gennaro…Italiano! Life is perspective. Men are supposed to be tough. Sicilian women too! I agree people feel powerless, no one’s happy, the world’s a shakedown, and I miss the morality of my grandparents. I may not always tell the truth but I don’t lie. Exactly, if we don’t have something nice to say we don’t say anything, be a gentlemen, maybe lie through omission to some. The theme over and over, do the right thing, respect, honor.
