I think you got it.

There are now, he says, tens of thousands entering the US every year illegally, many crossing the Mexican border and going to LA. "They include ex-KGB officers, former special forces and government officers.

Maybe we'll get lucky and someone in the executive branch, someone high up, someone on the top, will read this post.

I hope you didn't just notice this. The Guardian makes the New York Times look like the Washington Times.

"Mr Colannino said that mobsters from the former Soviet Union now constituted the largest ethnically based crime group in the US."

Yeah, but it's the DIVERSITY that counts! (Hurl!) Remember, "Our strength is our diversity." (/sarcasm)

[gaspar]

This is a disgusting example of racial profiling.

JEWISH MAFIA from Russia

You'd fall for anything as long as it blamed the Jewz.

Clemenza, all massive, unregulated, legal and illegal immigation is bad for the USA. It's just that the criminal element from Russia are worse than most.

Let's tell it like it is.... this is the JEWISH MAFIA from Russia.

Let's tell it like it is, nazi - your feedlot is likely over on polinco or faem. Why don't you slither over to the rest of your species?

As a native Californian living in L.A. for the last 16 years, I'm just dying for a New York transplanted Floridian to explain to me the real problems arising from Illegals and immigrant gangsters in my city.

Please, enlighten us all.

[Clemenza]

Just having a little fun.

What we need to do is 1. Enforce the laws we already have on the books regarding immigration, 2. Abolish family reunification and 3. End the drug war!

Ethnic gangs will always be with us, but these steps should "choke them off" a bit.

Ask anyone in Brighton Beach, NY and they will tell you the real story.

Ask me. I am from brooklyn. Let's tell it like it is.... this is the JEWISH MAFIA from Russia.

Is it? Really? Two suspects - Dubai businessman Andrei Agueev and Andrei Liapine, who lived in the United Arab Emirates - are accused of helping transfer $240,000 in ransom paid to the kidnappers. Both have pleaded innocent and face trials beginning April 9. . Interesting. Suspects have non Jewish names and live in Dubai. Don't you feel like an ass?

[Clemenza]

From first hand experience, I can tell you that although the initial gangs in the 1970s were Jewish, many Russian non-Jewish organizations have established a presence in recent years. You also have Georgian gangs active in the New York area. A bigger problem, however, is the Albanian Mafia (largely from Kosovo, BTW), who are very big in the heroin trade in New York, although I am more mad at the fact that they have taken over all the Pizzerias in the city as well, ;-)
