@@justinlambert4890 I care asshole

Adrian Channelle what about me?

@Jessica “Don Vito” was the reason Joe Valachi testified to Congress, which confirmed the existence of the mafia to the public, so...SOMEBODY needs to learn their history

@Jessica proud to bear my family name

Joseph Rivett my uncle (married my moms sister) his uncle is Anthony Senter so if u know about “the crew” I’m sure that Name is familiar to you. I have spoke to my uncles mom about her brother Anthony many times and have heard some very interesting stories.

you could track down the books he's reading from

agree, but most of what said is a bit fluff. like mobster ratting on each other , like little girls at a tea party.

No he had accepted it. Was just mad Costello took over when he fled.and Luciano wouldn’t make him boss when he came back in 46 so he made him a capo or even a soldier of his own crew . Fed up he had Costello hit .then took over the family for a year

Crazcompart Stupid way to think. In my opinion , the commission was the smartest way anyone could of thought of

He disagreed with the whole racial integration thing in the commission....He felt it should of stayed all Italian...

@@Ken-iu2zp typical.. he was Italian but not Sicilian, so wasn't fully accepted himself.. so he decided to pick on those who weren't even Italian to prove he belongs.

Genoese accepted nothing except his own ambitions

Exactly what i was thinking...no way

No way..he killed the the 1910s and 1920s...Guaranteed!!!

... first murder that was documented, perhaps (?)

yes! I agree

Yeah me too.. but not enough history.

What the fuck do U love about Evil ❓❓❓

i heard Sil hit him first.

Especially after the Chin took over the family .

Some entered the mob for bloodletting and some for money.

@@peterh1353 Cecil Brown says,what's up over there?

To bad Luck Luciano had to leave the US. Who knows how would American Mafia end up if he stayed on top. But everybody knew the heyday of American Mafia was over when the made men started to rat out on their bosses because of the big sentences that were given to them for involvement in drugs business. The old guard knew they should never mess with the drugs. In those days omerta worked cause all the guys stayed silent and did their time (5-10 years). But when the Feds give you 2 choices: 1. You spill the beans on your boss or 2. You're getting 30 years for that 10 kg of heroin we caught you with. Many guys buckled and ratted out.. Of course the last nail in the coffin of the American Mafia was the RICO law with which the FBI could go after the big wigs even if they had no specific evidence against them. Is was enough for you to be at the helm of the organisation whose members were involved in serious crime. There was something romantic about the Cosa Nostra, especially when you compare it with the current wild men from Mexican cartels, MS 13 and the likes. Although in Italy today Camorra is what COsa nostra was 50 years ago. Sicilians were overrun by the more ruthless organised crime bosses - Camorristi..

@@cecilbrown6825 Your reference is flying over my head.

gethin evans Great idea!

gas pipe was a lucchese underboss as far as i know

Really ? I've started to watch it so many times and stopped at the first episode maybe I'll give it another go!

U must be so proud smh

He had a stroke.

He became a legend

You mean Bonanno. He was head and shoulders above all these other guys because he was the only one that could rinse up the Sicilian families. That is why Luciano was always in very close ties with him. He knew what Joe will become. Nobody messed with Joseph. They did mess with Luciano tho. As tough as he was.

For a very very short time. Dewey saw to that. Even after Lucky saved his life by telling Dutch Schultz not to kill Dewey.

@@julianleft4662 whoever messed with Luciano was punished lol even without taking the title he was boss of all bosses

LANA YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL ADORABLE SEDUCTIVE RAVISHING SEXY CAPTIVATING AND PASSIONATE YOUR BEAUTY IS PHENOMENAL IF MICHELANGELO WERE ALIVE TODAY YOU WOULD BE HIS MUSE ❤

@Bo Zithe gambinos couldve killed every family 😂😂

@Bo Zi your probably right its not really my opinion i just like the fact that carlos gambino was probably the most successful boss out of all bosses due to the fact that he didnt get caught

Vito genovese era do origine napoletane

I have read about that period and would recommend Alan Whickers autobiography which details his Allied Service in the region and his first hand account of the bizarre and Byzantine Italian nation of the time. Mussolini had the advantage of suppressing organised crime simply by being ruthless and cruel. By being a bigger bully than the other bullies. This pleased the public who were the victim. Gangsterism and blood feuds racked the country and even above this there is a natural animosity between North and the South. Something which persists to this day. The Allied forces were aided by mobsters and criminals, but also by camp followers and those that simply wanted to be part of the winning team. Like Spain and the former Yugoslavia, rather a "forced" nation or a shotgun marriage.

Peter J. Andros well tell the tells we are hungry to hear more and we will show the appreciation.

We've been waiting 7 months spit it out bitch

What's wrong with you? We all wait for the stories and it's now been almost a year without any! And don't tell us you've got no time, especially at this corona mess, when everything is closed. So, go ahead...

Graham Jonathan this the best shit I’ve heard

Except the United States government

By far,Lucky was my favorite along with Lansky

@@orlandovazquez9662 two losers who killed for money.

Lucky learned from working for Rothstein

the family would always take the name of the new boss. however since the 1960s it was agreed that the names of the families of the present bosses in the 1960s would stay the same names forever as whenever the names changed the FBI would then know who the new boss was and begin to go after them. so by keeping the old names it wouldnt attract too much heat for whoever was the boss at that time.

BARGAHHH

Bloodletters & Badmen Oops. Had no idea you already did it. Thanks!

Carmine Galante is one of the most interesting figures in all of mob history. Almost as much as either Lucky or Lansky (who I'm sure he worked as an enforcer for during Prohibition; bc by the '40's he was wacking ppl for Vito G after he was released for his arrest/indictment in '31 for killing a police officer and wounding two other children in a shootout for the officer trying to stop him and his crew pulling off a truck hijacking). Because of his role in the Pizza Connection heroin trade, and basically being the head of the entire narcotics trafficking racket into NYC, he obviously had sky-rocketed in terms of both power and infamy. His role as chauffeur then eventually both consigliere AND underboss to Joe Bonnano didn't take place until the mid-'50's, which is when Galante became in charge of both the "Pizza Connection," in Montreal AND a majority of the Bonnano family's enforcement until he was set up in a major narcotics bust with Genovese, Gigante, Billy Batts (of GOODFELLAS fame) and several other Sicilian immigrants that Galante brought over. These men were known as 'Zips,' and were Galante's major bodyguard/enforcers and traffickers, known for their savagery and willingness to attack women, kids, and willingness to use bombs (all rules against the American Commission). Once he was was released early in '74, he was not only arguably the biggest legend still active in LCN, other than Gmabino and his underboss Neil Dellacroce). Along with importing violent Zips, his brazen attempts to take complete control of the narcotics market (which involved him ordering the deaths of around EIGHT Gambino made men) and then eventually refusing to share said profits w the other families, as it truly was his personal racket he had set up around 20 years earlier. Also - he supposedly mentioned that he was gonna eventually take the position of "Boss of Bosses," which didn't even exist since Luciano abolished the position in '31, although Carlo Gambino held the position in all but actual name from 1959 until hid death in '76. The Commission's selection for boss, Phillip 'Rusty' Rastelli, went to the Commission (using his trusted capo Joe Massino as his messanger, who was already fearing for his life from Galante due to him answering to Rastelli in jail rather than Galante) delivered this message for Rusty to the Commission. The rest, as they say, is history....aforementioned Gambino underboss Dellacroce (a legendary hitman who acutally was one of Anastasia's proteges and was a low-key member of Murder Inc.) was given the contract, who then turned to Bonnano capo Alphonse "Sonny Red" Indelicatio to reach out to some of the Zips Galante has imported, particularly his bodyguard Cesare Bonventre, to arrange his murder. If you don't know how this story ended (for Galante, at least), then do your research bc it became arguably the greatest LCN hit of all-time in NYC, next to Anastasia's barbershop slaying in '57 and Castellano being gunned down outside of Sparks Steakhouse in '85. Ironically, the man who arranged Castellano's murder, who goes by the name of John Gotti (you've probabaly heard of him as he was also Neil Dellacroce's protege), was thoughly impressed by Galante while they served time at the same prison in the early '70's.....it's said that Galante was disappointed when he heard "John belonged to Neil,' as Neil was one of the few ppl still on the Commission that Galante viewed as an equal snf Galante REALLY wanted Gotti to become a Bonnano once they both were released in the mid '70's......

Tron Snow "no one will ever kill me,they wouldnt dare"

Tron Snow Interesting. John Gotti as a Bonanno. I wonder how he would’ve gotten along with Agent Joseph Pistone(Donnie Brasco).

Italian immigrants would never be allowed into Harvard back then. There was no affirmative action. Nobody cared about diversity or giving outsiders a chance. The WASPs carefully guarded their institutions.

You have it right.

San paku.

i dont think most of these guys lose any sleep

@@warshipsatin8764 Certainly not Vito anyway.

Not the mob that approached Steven Segal because of the incident with his manager. Those won't prison photos. Same dead look with long coats on.

Yep Only Gotti, Galante, or Scarfo outdid him on the psycho-meter.

gioknows the treacherous ones where the best for example Carlo Gambino and Lucky Luciano

L.A. Noire Very true. If only Lucky had adopted Gambino's practice of keeping a low profile, his family would probably still be known as the Luciano family instead of as the Genovese family. The man was a criminal genius, but for his Achilles heel of flashing his money.

White Tony absolutely true that’s what it takes to be in the Mafia

PinkOld the last testament of Lucky Luciano is the truth about Luciano I agree with u
