re: #130 albusteve

makes Capone look like a choir boy…extortion is rampant in the ME…I’m hugely disappointed that a Chicago, made guy like BO needs to play it for political purposes…he’s not even the cheap thug I thought he was…he’s a stooge…Hamas’s bitch

Well, Capone had to pay off the cops and politicians, right on up to the mayor for most of the 20’s. The phrase ‘most of’ is used because William Dever (in office 1923-1927) was actually clean. Thugs routinely hand out bribes.
