Right. He took over the family because he is a true pussy? lol

Was involved in an active street war, shot people, been shot because he is soft?

Don't think he ever shot anyone but that is besides the point. You said you wanted to see JCB laugh in his face like doing so would be some sort of dangerous endeavor. What do you Merlino would do? He can't whip his ass so what is he gonna do? Run to the phone and call Mazzone up in Philly and tell him to send down some hitters because some civilian is laughing at him? You've seen too many movies.

It is a dangerous endeavor. Some of these guys are hot heads, and whether you want to believe it or not Merlino is dangerous. It wouldn't be done by you, or JCB...even if based on rep alone. You wouldn't take the chance and we both know it.

Merlino is only dangerous in the context of his position within LCN. Outside of that he is nothing. If LCN disappeared today Merlino is a harmless little old man.

Has Merlino ever been pulled over driving down a one way street then being arrested for either being high on coke or having coke on him?

No but he once got in the back seat of a car and wondered where the steering wheel was.

I remember his wife and some friends got busted for drinking and drugs at the shore

I'd say merlino is prob one of the most fit mafia bosses he looks very athetetic muscular is his latest pics not glorifying or making something out of this convo just making an observation most mob bosses are fat or the sloppy skinny type ... some other in shape ones I can think of are Sammy the bull that luchesee captain that just got recently busted for the gambling I believe he was acting underboss at one time and some other roid heads

I've never heard that... Nicky was shot in 89 that happened in 92 or 93 .... I believe Nicky was hiding in north jersey at the time.

He was one of the suspects in the Scarfo Jr. attempt but I don't know if that was ever confirmed. It might have been done by Mike Ciancaglini or someone else. Don't recall if he was in that van on the attempt on Stanfa. He did drive the car in the attempted murder of Anthony Milicia.

People said that about Massino.

The truth is people have ZERO idea.
Some do, Massino, some don't, Nicodemo. And nobody knows.
Nobody.

Omertà in Philly is like the liberty bell. It's cracked and doesn't work.

thats is true , just dont see merlino flipping. from a outsider looking , it seems his image of a gangster means to much to him. not in his dna to rat. time will tell they have got anyone of his main guys to flip time will tell if any do
