What do they have? A sheep racket?

They insist that you're thinking of the New Zealand Mafia. But then again the New Zealand Mafia insists that you're right...

Are they the ones who cut off fingers like in the SNL game show or the movie Rising Sun?

Yep. It's an initiation/loyalty ritual from what I understand. In the movie Black Rain, a Yakuza boss forces one of his people to do it in front of a group of other bosses.

I've also heard that tattoos are something of a taboo for Japanese people, because for the most part only Yakuza members have tattoos. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

What about the Gay Mafia?

I hear if you cross them, they'll fit you with a pair of designer shoes and buy you an aquarium.

SCARY.

Old school Italian Mafia was the best. Those men had honor, brains, guts, and all the hot bitches.

In turns of ruthlessness and their willingness to kill you without even thinking about it, it would have to be either the Russian mafia or the Hong Kong Triads.

The Mexican mafia isn't even a real mafia. Just a large low class gang that wants to think of itself as a mafia.
