This is not true. They do exist in america and california just because you dont hear about the crimes they commit doesnt mean they dont exist. They just arent out commiting major crimes such as murder like they use to. They commit white collar crimes such as money laundering, prostitution, extortion, illegal gambling, and drug/weapon trafficking. I do agree however that the yakuza has become mostly legal as they invest and pool their money together for business ventures today. Their illegal dealings make up a very small percentage of what they do.

 

The reason why you dont hear much about what they do is because they dont personally commit the drug trafficking they are well documented to have a small vietnamese/korean street gang distribute the drugs in a more careful chain of command approach. Their leaders smuggle it in to them to which they distribute and sell to lower street gangs to which it gets onto the streets. 

 

The fact that you never hear about the yakuza in america is by design but if you actually research the yakuza they are most definitely in America.

 

 

Essentially I dont think anyone should be barred from roleplaying yakuza if done correctly. I mean since they do not have the strongest impact on america anymore, I'd more or less be pointing towards a very small and tight knit group that can work everything out amongst themselves and work around current asian street gangs in order to exist.

The Yakuza doesn’t operate on a criminal level in Los Angeles at all, there’s no proof of them having any active criminal activities in LA. I challenge anyone who wants to disagree with me to find me proof of the Yakuza being active and involved in crime in LA.

The server doesn’t need a cult nor should there be one,  because when people say they want a cult, they mean something like the one from Far Cry, or some psychopath doomsday cult. Those aren’t common, as a matter of fact most cults are just tight knit groups of offshoots of Christianity that’s a bit more insane and wild. I’m not saying they’re not violent but it’s not to the point of having human sacrifices  and satanic rituals. This community would not be able to do it correctly at all. 

I said I wanted I cult and I can tell you, for a fact, that I don’t want to see a doomsday psychopathic cult. I love that you assumed what I wanted and meant. 
 

“Cults” come in many different forms. When I suggested there should be a cult I wanted this exact definition 


 
noun
  1. a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.

Yes, cause an organized crime family known to operate under the radar, with strict code of conduct always leaves things laying around to be used as proof of their criminal activities and WANT people to know they're behind something.

If you can't see, hear or find them breaking the law, then they MUST be legit. Makes absolute sense.

Anarchist collective operating out of a DIY house, that's all I ask for. And on the forever dead beaten horse that is the Yakuza, we -do- have evidence of the operation of the Yoshitomi-Gumi within California and the rest of mainland America through using the Menace of Destruction and other Asian ethnic minorities as foot soldiers. But pop off, I guess.

Most articles don't specify LA but many of them specify they do crime in California.

 

. Yakuza have been tied to drug trafficking and other crimes in the United States, with particular prominence in Hawaii and California. 

 

- NY times

 

 

the Yakuza are also mentioned on the FBI's website.

There's been multiple threads on the Yakuza faction concept. Let's keep that discussion in those threads.

Nation of Islam.

There was a Nation of Islam or something along those lines, and I enjoyed it very much, but they just kinda disappeared and I never found out where they went to. Someone should bring something like it back.
