The mob weren't nice folks by any stretch but I think there cut would be above the TeaPubliKlans, they at least weren't granny starving assholes robbing the poor.

Probably a case could be made that the most people were in less danger, more secure, and less likely to have their lives intruded on with organized crime than disorganized crime and the response to it but that is another issue and one best dealt with by ending vice laws and enforcement.
