@@331coolguy more than likely he wouldn't have went to jail... Because his money was buying up all the politicians and police ... Elliot Ness was the problem... He wasn't scared of Capone and he was consistent.. they knew he committed crimes but they couldn't get anybody to really tell on him so they got him by saying he didn't pay his taxes

And if they didn't put prohibition in place, people like Capone probably would never have reached such heights of power, cos if you ban something & make it illegal, someone'll always be there to keep supplying it regardless...

For people that don't know the white hand was Irish members and the black hand was Italian members. White Hand Gang was a collection of various Irish American gangs on the New York City, Brooklyn, and Red Hook waterfronts from the early 1900s to 1925 who organized against the growing influence of Italian gangsters. Their name was chosen in response to the Sicilian Black Hand gangs and carried the implication that the Irish gang was the "white" counter to the growing presence of what they considered "non-white" Italian gangsters and Italian immigrants. They were known to be virulently anti-Italian and particularly violent, with members killing each other, contributing to the unstable leadership which led to the gang's demise.

Wow! How old is the MOB?

[@conwaysquest6961]

Conceptually, organized crime is probably as old as civilization itself. The Chicago Outfit is a branch of the Italian-American Mob, which started in the 1860s. The American Mob itself was originally a branch operation of the Sicilian Mafia, or Cosa Nostra. We don't know how old the Sicilian mafia is exactly, but the american mob is roughly 165 years old, and the Chicago Outfit is about 110 years old.
