There is more chance of a Scott Burnstein article not referring to Joey Merlino as handsome and suave than there is of a mob war happening in Philadelphia.
You got that right. The Philly mob is almost nonexistent. It's gonna be difficult to prove a RICO case at this point.
The Philly Mob isn't "almost nonexistent". There just is a low probability of a mob war occurring there in the foreseeable future. There's a difference.
The reason why there's no war is because there's nothing to fight over. What are you gonna fight over? A book? Come on. This is a joke. Besides, most of these guys are legitimate today. They couldn't even get Ligambi after 12 years of trying. You think that's because he's a master criminal? That indictment was an insult to organized crime. Meyer Lansky must be spinning.
