My favorite examples of guys mouthing off to authorities are when Ray Patriarca told RFK "You two don't have the brains of your retarded sister" at the McClellan hearings and when Salvatore Santoro cut off the judge's lecture at his Commission Trial sentencing with "I don't need any stories. Just give me my 100 years and get me the fuck outta here!"
Cool quotes :lol:
Yet Patriarca himself didn't take insults well if they were aimed at him: remember his reaction when Willie Marfeo told his underboss (Tameleo) "go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat"?

And in his day a high school graduate had more of quality education than the average Harvard grad today. :mrgreen:

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

Legend goes that Chicago's first big time racketeer Michael Cassius McDonald a.k.a. King Mike once said to one individual who asked for some small donation like 2 dollars or something like that, regarding a burial... King Mike allegedly asked him "What’s for?"..."Well, we`re burying a policeman" said the man..."Good!" said Mike, "Here's 10 dollars, bury five of `em!"
