 THE BRONX 

"Anyone who does not  smoke is suspect. I do not hear, I do not see, I do not speak, that was the law of silence that prevailed in the Bronx, It was written ont the walls, also in the old Cartridge and even in San Victorino, With the complicity of all citizens. So it has been like that since decades. 

With the construction of roads and Columbus Avenue (13th Street) and the emergence of more industries. San Victorino became a funnel where the "piperos" came together, smuggling, and they began to form the first cambuches to process alcohol, traffic gold and weapons. 

There came and from there was distributed. Who does not remember the cry: Bottle paper? All that was collected was brought to the district San Victorino, where the glass he recycled and was used to bottle adulterated liquor. Especially whiskey, whose import it was regulated by high taxes. It was done in the cartridge, and bus parking smuggling center at a time. 

The opinion about the is that luckily the Bronx has been closed, with all the problems in this place. With all this, also there is evidence that in the streets and quarters the number of thieves, homeless, drug dealers and addicts.
