We battled CTA back in the day. We would put up burners and they would come by and splash them from the street. But it never led to violence. Both crews had seen enough of our friends lose there life to shameless gangbanging. I beleive both crews knew it was something different that we had ventured into and both crews respected each other. That is why to this day I can chill with FLY105 and talk with REL. We understood even back then that violence gets us no were fast.

Im glad i didnt have to deal with the 90's rat pack attacks that happened. Its a shame for all that we worked for Chicago always goes back to its thug mentality. its hard when this city was built on gangs and thugs.




Earl Weiss served as boss of Chicago's Irish-Jewish gang in 1924, but his rein was short lived. Weiss was shot on October 11, 1926, after refusing to make peace with the powerful Chicago gangster



Arrested over seventy times, and a former soldier of Al Capone. Giancana was purportedly hired by Joseph P. Kennedy to "deliver" Chicago to John F. Kennedy in order to obtain the presidential nomination of his party. Giancana's behavior was too high profile for the Mafia's taste, and attracted far too much federal scrutiny. After an exile in Mexico, Giancana was murdered in his basement with multiple gunshots to the head, before he could give Senate testimony on CIA plots to assassinate Fidel Castro.




KING CAPONE’s chief means of attaining electoral success was his reliance on local precinct captains, who marshaled and delivered votes on a neighborhood-by-neighborhood basis. Many of these precinct captains held patronage jobs with the city, mostly minor posts at low pay. Micdouble hockey sticke Obama’s father, Fraser Robinson III, was a precinct captain in the KING CAPONE machine.

Each ward had a ward leader in charge of the precinct captains, some of whom were corrupt. The notorious First Ward (encompassing downtown, which had many businesses but few residents) was tied to the local mafia or crime syndicate, but KING CAPONE’s own ward was supposedly clean and his personal honesty was never questioned successfully, primarily because he controlled all levels of the government and media that could have questioned him.
