Ah perfect, instead of admitting that you are full of shit, can't remember what you post, and need to use misdirection when I call you out, you try to split hair and fail instantly. "Alcohol is a drug" ROFLROFL..

Bonnano and Luciano were his rivals, not his pals. Of course they'd have as much to gain by calling him smart as you would calling anyone smart. Their egos, and yours, couldn't take it.

Poor guy. Knows absolutely nothing about mafia history. Bonanno and Luciano weren't his rivals, seeing as how his outfit controlled everything West of Chicago. Bonanno and Luciano weren't rivals as much as working for different bosses, Luciano for Masseria and Bonanno for Maranzano. In fact, Bonanno helped Luciano with the idea for the Commission, and Luciano made Bonanno head of his own family. Way to prove your continued ignorance

Capone built an empire that ran long after he died. Furthermore, after YEARS of running it and the full weight of the US government with limitless resources to nab him pursuing him the most they could come up with was tax evasion. He wasn't prosecuted for a single criminal act.
|
Actually, Capone took over empire started by Colosimo and then Torrio, and had a hell of a backing from Masseria and Luciano.

As for Kennedy, all he did was one up Capone by not only NOT getting caught for anything, but getting his son elected President and another nearly so. Not bad for a stupid bootlegger.

Yea, and then his son got murdered (allegedly) by those same people
Please Cosmic, this is just embarrassing. At least learn your history before you try arguing.
