Would it have been a heavy damage for the Outfit or would Ricca have managed to put everything back together quickly? I mean, did Cermak and his Irish gangsters (Touhy, Newberry etc) have a chance to destroy the Outfit if the attempt hadn't failed and Cermak wasn't killed by Zangara or was the attempt to destroy the Outfit doomed from the start? By the way, what's the current version of the Cermak murder: was Zangara a lone gunman/fanatic or was he engaged by the Outfit as retaliation for the attempt on Nitti's life? Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo: 1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down." 2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
