My last name makes people think I'm part of an italian mafia family, apparently...

...or at least italian, for those who aren't into mafia families much.

This disturbs me. -.-

Old Maffia was a highly organised syndicate with stricter rules than the catholic church... Usually, they weren't the "gangsters" you see in movies, more (illegal) businessmen...
Heck, the Yakuza was put in charge by the Japanese government to supervise the "gray zone" businesses (like gambling and prostitution) and keep it in check... Yakuza weren't gangsters at all, they were even more like businessmen and a sort of unofficial police...
The Русская маÑ,,ия has changed in the nineties, becoming more of a big international business and adding lots of ex-KGB and ex-politicians to their ranks, but even before that they were people, with a code of honor, you could buy interesting things from and (probably) loan a few bucks from...

Well that is at least those (La Cosa Nostra, the ヤã,¯ã,¶ and the Русская маÑ,,ия) are the three crime syndicates most respected by me...

It is true that The Russian Mafia has interested in politics much lately but I think with this it has lost its code of honor. May be it just seemed that it has it, but in my opinion it hasn't it at all already (But I can be wrong cuz I don't no much about any mafia organizations :rolleyes: )
About Yakuza, yes, I heard that they are really "gentlemen" ^_^
And about La Cosa Nostra I don't know anything so I can't comment it ;012
