Sorry to derail the thread. And, again, I have nothing against any posts here, just the government releasing documents with names of civilians. Once they're out, they're out, obviously. The fault clearly lies on them. That being said, this is a great thread and I enjoy the photos of the actual mobsters in their candid moments.


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
