The "Daper Don" died yesterday at a Hospital Prison in Missouri.
It is really quite amazing how many people were impressed with this guy. A modern day Billy The Kid. There are so many people drawn to this whole mob thing as glorified Anti-Heros. Hey, I love the "Sopranos" and "The Godfather" is my favorite movie, but it is all entertainment. In the real world, real bullets kill real people.
As a youngester, I grew up pretty close to Cleveland's Little Italy and like any stupid kid was enamoured with the stories and who that guy is or this guy. But as I grew and came to realize what the mob was really all about, my opinion changed.
What is funnier, is how many of us know someone who says they know a mob guy or have some kind of mob ties in their family. Meanwhile, the Mob is more or less dead.
Being Italian, I have people asking me if have mob ties in my family!!! So your asking me if I am related to any criminals and murders?
