maybe its a different term in america with a lower case a, untouchable means unstoppable her, and when the money keeps flowing, that makes it unstoppable, thats what it all comes down too, money.
I dont know if you have ever been to the US.. obviously you've done your research as the mafia and what not, but even though street gangs are not as organized or have been around as long as the mafia, they have gone thru the same raids, gone thru deaths... you kan even see how they are alike.
And dont judge "some random black guys" and think it has anything to do with race. Street Gangs are out there hard... they run the prison systems and the streets.
believe it or not, Street Gang emulate those mafias... and even more brazen in the way they do things.
I understand what you saying, but if you believe the mafia is what it used to be in the 20's-30's.. its not like that here in the US. They've been touched and driven underground even more to the point that they have been out of sight. Of course they are still around, just not out there like they were in those eras.
Again, take it from us that live in the US and can compare these things to each other.
and if you still think that the Mafia is untouchable, watch the movie donnie Brasco.
