My last thread on this got shut down. Apparently I got a little too "politically incorrect" for things around here. If you'll notice I have only around 50 posts so what the hell do I know? It looks like its also okay to swear like a sailor here. So being new here I had no idea that hinting at racial epithets would get me along with a few others so harshly scolded.

That being said....

Is there anyone who didn't see the first thread who might know anything about Tommy Reynolds? I'm not obsessed its just that the guy is really intriguing....He was born in the heavily Italian section of Bath Beach. Joins the Bath Ave Crew, gets the little number tattooed on his ankle, shoves a fork right into somebody's eye, becomes a crack head then shoots a mother point blank right between the eyes in front of her own small child.

I read someplace that was the very best street fighter of the whole gang.

There is also some contention as to if he's even part Italian or not.

Now hes either got life in prison or he is on death row, I'm not sure. Then after the judge gives Tommy life in prison for shooting this poor little girls Mother, Tommy's Mother actually has the balls to say...."Are you happy now? Go have a drink on me..." Crazy shit.

Anyway, would really appreciate any info.

Each neighborhood has a tommy reynolds. Very ballsy but unpredictable and undisciplined. There were some irish in that hood back then so to say he was all irish or not italian would not be shocking at all. There are also plenty of irish with dark hair and dark eyes.
Pulling a home invasion is a punk move and they planned it without any regard for a child or woman being home. If they " never meant to hurt anyone", why bring a loaded gun ? An unloaded gun would of scared them just as much.
The fact that it was known that Tommy Reynolds was using crack and they still used him for such a volatile type crime was plain stupid.
Paciello planned it, knew reynolds was a crackhead and knew reynolds had a loaded gun. It is what it is.

Thank you Belmont, your input is really appreciated.

I seem to recall there being a guy here who knew Tommy personally. I'd love to hear from him.

Thanks again everybody,

Sal

Human fucking garbage. It doesn't get any lower than killing an innocent woman WHILE INVADING HER OWN HOME.

How anyone can be anti-death penalty is beyond me. And fuck Tommy Reynolds' mother, too. She raised that drug addled mutt, she should have to live with the same pain as the Shemtov family.

Re Mob Myths and Realities: Next time someone who grew up in Anytown, USA, and never cracked an egg in their life, mentions that wiseguys "only kill each other" and "keep the neighborhood safe," tell them to Google this piece of shit.

PB,

As always your input is greatly respected. Yes I agree, I have two little girls. Just to think of such a horrific thing makes my blood run cold. That child will NEVER forget seeing her mother die right in front of her.

There is very little info on Tommy if you google him.

Take care PB....

There's got to be a lot of Italian American mobsters of Irish descent on their mother's side. Or telling fibs about their lineage.

It's like Philip Carlo said. The Irish girls put out more than the Italian girls. LOL

The Irish breed like rabbits.

Careful moe for somebody take this post down again saying we are being racist lmaooooooo smh Dame shame that we cant have freedom of speech here when most of the mobsters we talk about are some of the most notorious racist guys that ever lived. But it is what it is I guess.

Exactly what PB Said. Tommy was a piece of shit crack head gun shooting maniac. I am very surprised why Anthony spero didn't whack tommy out after that home invasion incident in S.I. That was very bad for business .... Killing an innocent house wife. Fuck tommy!!!

That's the hardest part to get around.....

The fact that a loaded gun pointed in a womans face wouldn't be enough to scare her into doing whatever the crooks wanted. And that he shot here right between the eyes in front of a 3 or 4 year old.

Any mug shots of Tommy? or pictures besides that same one where they all look like they are at a party together?

I'd appreciate anything at all.

AND.....if I can ever return the favor ask me anything you want about what its like being a professional musician for 34 years. I've got some good ones. But they'll have to be in a different forum I guess. Some do overlap into OC though.

Thanks,

Sal

I will never forget Judi shemtov's name , defo one of the low points in mob history along with Mary Bari and Patricia capozallo

And he didn't even get life in prison

im sure you guys can read some articles on the internet about her son- Adam Kidan

He was partners with Jack Abramoff

So sad what happened

There's nothing holding you here. If you don't like how the boards are moderated go somewhere else. Just stop your bitching and moaning already.

Not looking to stir up trouble but one can only ponder what would have happened here if these very same comments had been made toward african-americans:

"The Irish girls put out more than the Italian girls. LOL"

"The Irish breed like rabbits."

Just replace "Irish" with the word "Black", Afro-American" etc.

I'm not singling the board/mod or poster out here but it doesn't take long to see there is a double standard in this country especially of late.

Salvi, I understand your point and I am guilty of it as anyone but I am predominantly Irish so it was self-deprecating and it was mocking what Philip Carlo put in his book more than anything else.

Fair enough. This thread is closed. Suspensions to follow.
