I dont understand? Revisionist history?Explain to me why its so inconceivable for Detroit to be biggest in narcotics from the 30s, to the 50s? Like you really confuse me, your Purple Gang stats, like they Are from Detroit right? Your New York stats ARE from the 50s, like WHAT ARE YOU ARGUING EXACTLY?
Better question, Luciano goes to jail in the 30s, Who fills that vaccuum from New York? Remember, Rothstien controlled this trade, Lucky inherited from him, and his contacts were in China, not the middle East, but the Far East. So you tell me,lol The Title of the thread, Who was the King of Dope?
I'm arguing you shouldn't take the whole Detroit being the biggest in narcotics from the 30's to the 50s as a given when that hasn't been established. And not only are you making that assumption, in your last post you used that as a jumping off point for several other assumptions.
