The lions share of the blame goes to the Anglo Saxon Community treating Italians like dog shit due to their ethnic/religious difference. They were segregated into slums and their work opportunities dramatically reduced. It's no small wonder a people are going to turn to crime to survive.
The Italian mob wouldn't have boomed the way it did if the Italians were allowed to integrate into society with everyone else from the start.
Bullshit. The Sicilians flocked to their enclaves, never learned English well, kept old world customs, and brought old world organized crime with them. The mafia's first victims were Italian Immigrants who were able to make some money in the new world.
