Wikipedia:
"By the end of Felipe Calderón's administration (2006–2012), the official death toll of the Mexican Drug War was at least 60,000, most of whom were criminals.[43] although unconfirmed accounts set the homicide rate above 100,000 deaths, given the large number of people who have disappeared."

As such I think using the name Sinaloa might be a bit too much. The brutality by which they operate is disgusting. I know people are using names like Hells Angels also. That's obviously also not good people, though I think more of Sons of Anarchy, instead of a cartel abducting innocent people, beheading them and some never to be found again. I hate to pull the nazi-card, but that's the kind of brutality Mexican drug cartels operate by - a total disregard of human lives.

But you know, you decide by yourself who you want to imitate or idolise.


You are aware this is theoretically a Mafia themed RPG?
You are aware that Carlo Gambino and fis successors like Castellano were not particularly charitable figures, too?
Disregard of human life is the very essence of organised crime.

You might want to rethink before opening your mouth.

Fully aware of this. But while this is just a theoretic game you're also not allowed to have a Hitler-themed family. While it's not illegal to have a Sinaloa-themed family, I just think Sinaloa is much too grim to name yourself after. Other mafias and criminal gangs usually try to keep a low profile and generally only hurt those who get in the way of business. The Italian mafia has a certain code of honour. Sinaloa is a different breed. Sinaloa and other Mexican cartels are pretty much waging a civil war with lots of collateral damage, so I think there's a significant difference.

I didn't think my point of view would be popular, but I stand by it, so no, I'm not going to rethink.

Yes, human trafficking, drug deals, or dumping highly toxic waste near some populated towns, just harming people who get into their way.
You clearly have a very romantic idea of the italian mafia.
If you want to follow your Hitler obsession, look for a WWII based RPG.

Yes I do have a somewhat romantic view of the Italian mafia. But you can ask the Italian mafia how shocked they were of the brutality of the Albanian mafia, and then know that the Mexican cartels are magnitudes above that. The Italian mafia DID have a certain code of honour. Even among criminals there are big differences in how they operate. I know I'm talking to deaf ears, but I just think there's a big difference between some criminal organisations. Just try watching a documentary about any Mexican cartel and you should be able to see what I mean.

I don't exactly have an obsession with Hitler, but I think there's a reason in most WWII games you can't play as the SS. But fine, let me make another comparison. The Wehrmacht or regular German army were as an instrument of the Nazi regime evil. The SS though were evil on a whole other level. I see normal criminal organisations as evil, but Mexican cartels as evil on a whole other level.

And I think there's also a big difference of playing with a name of a former mafia, or extinct mafia and then a current one who has part in a war that costs thousands of lives every year, and with an unseen brutality.

Just because their name's sake died, doesn't mean Gambino family is not an actual still existing Mafia family. Even when Gotti was the Don, the organization was still known as Gambino family.

Your point does not get more valid. *shrug*

its just a name...

Names represent opinions, actions etc. I could give you a list of war criminals and tell you it's just names, but they still represent something. Again the nazi example is great, cause of it's notoriety. Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, Josef Mengele, the Schutzstaffel aka. SS etc. These are just names? Can you think of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Mauthausen, Sibibor, Bergen-Belsen, Neuengamme, Buchenwald, Dachau without negative connotations? I personally can't.

im in the family andoria. If you google that its a blue planet with blue ppl from Star Trek....

Its just a name...

I have no opinions, or desire to be a blue person....

Those blue people are fictional. Sinaloa is not. They abduct people to behead them, dismember them, publicly hang them, put them in acid baths, burn them alive where they use diesel fuel, cause it burns slower. They don't just kill people, they torture them. A brutality much worse than you can imagine.
