  Comments:
I agree it's more than just "organized crime", but I don't think it's two separate senses.
I don't think 暴走族 are included in this term.
I don't think it's really a euphemism - "反社会的" isn't a positive or neutral term in the least.

Better? I think it goes a little bit wider than just yakuza.

Shouldn't this just be one sense, i.e. "organized crime"? Or what does sense 1 really refer to?
