    Not trying to like debate about crime, just I started new Xbox series game, “Mafia Trilogy.” Has all Three Mafia games in one package? I started playing a little bit of first one now.

    Which brings me to the crime question in title: “Do you have any experience in organized crime?” Do your “Families” have any big criminal history pasts or records? Or have you ever had to go to court or face a Judge and jury for illicit activity? Or even have had to face jail time?

    Sorry, maybe I am just watching too many of these kinds of movies. But question remains: What is your experience if you have any with organized crime? Thank you!!

    Ahh yes. Video games.

    I blame video games for the downfall of civilization.

    Wonderful training for warriors, thieves and criminals of all sorts!

    What a powerfully tragic thing they have created, a training tool to warp the minds of our youth - exposing them to the lie that it is OK to be a criminal, thief, or warrior instead of a valued contributor to society.

    The mafia still exists, but they like to keep a very low profile.
    In Philadelphia, there have been 'mob hits' in years past.

    If you're a republican, especially if you're also a supreme court justice, you're involved in organized crime.

    I could relate a few second hand accounts.

    me too. speculatively. though i'd rather not go there. anything involving ceo's, or other high ranking corporate officers/oligarcs, under any ideology has the potential to.

    as to the games, i'm unfamiliar with the computer versions, but there was a game often played at furry pickniks,
    that didn't require anything other then minds, imaginations and at least one person who knew the rules to set it up, and anywhere between five and twelve players.
    actually any number might be possible, but i seem to recall somewhere around that number because there were something like that many roles to play.

    the furry picknik was a variant, that my have involved the vampires vs weres, with possibly innocent bystanding humans.
    players shut their eyes when roles for players were chosen, so that you sort of had to guess as that back and forth among players progressed as to who was which.

    no idea if or how much this might be related/unrealated.

    Only on election day, some criminal will get put in office. I always vote, don't have much choice.
