The Golden Years of the Capone Era

» arutkovskis - It was an exhaustive story

In my opinion Al Capone was a waywise. The most thing I like about him is his feeling of respect. All the things he did were to gain respect. I consider it the most neccessary thing for real man.

P.S. Do somebody knows where I can find an online club for like-minded men like me? If You can help me, please, write to: arutkovskis@hotmail.com

While Capone may have made a real effort to gain respect for himself, both he and the people he had killed paid a heavy price for that respect. Sometimes its difficult to separate the concepts of respect and fear.

If all the things Al Capone did were to gain respect, then he failed, because I don't respect him a single bit. He dropped out of school at 13, verbally abused women (which is how he got his nickname), was married but still "auditioned" girls for his whore houses, which brought him pretty good money from selling women and girls to sex crazed perverts(and also gave him the syphilis which prematurely ended his life by 20 years). Then, he cowardly killed six men by impersonating police officers. Not to mention that he brutally murdered two of his assassins by beating them to death with baseball bats when he found they were working for Bugs Moran. Not to mention he had himself arrested for the bogus charge of carrying a gun so that he would be in the safest place possible for 10 months: prison. From inside the prison he was allowed any visitors he wanted and full time use of a telephone to run his empire. What a coward that he couldn't even face the consequences of his own actions. He was just like a scared little boy hiding behind mommy's legs. He also made his fortune of the selling of illegal liquor. All this so called respect he had just led to him being convicted for income tax evasion. None of the things he did were for respect, they were for power, which in the long run did him no good. A real man knows that its not getting respect that matters, its giving it, because if you show others that you respect them, then thats what you'll get back. Murder, adultery, and illegal actions don't come from a want for respect, they come from stupidity.

I must say that agree with your view point
