Citing the tape where Frank c says the Outfit could be taken over if several guys were knocked down is fuckin stupid. What're you trying to prove/say? John gotti took over the entire gambino family by murdering one guy. Derp. These are organized crime families, not continents.
Yeah listening to a wire on one of the most infamous hitmen in recent mob history is "stupid."
Why would anyone be interested in that?
As I said before, he was clearly pointing a very diminshed Outfit; he followed it up with "That's what it's come to."
He might have prefaced it with a similar statement; I can't remember.
And I certainly never said it was proof that Elmwood Park was shelved. I just said, it they are, it casts the question as to who the seven guys were in a far different light.
Also, the recording was made 10 years ago, at least, so things have obviously changed since then.
