What would have been his next move? To stop shaving and grow a beard.
All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.
I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?

ive often wondered about that same thing. if the hit was botched as costellos was. you can bet Anastasia would have hit back hard, he had the shooters.
Yup I was just gonna say I can't see him hanging up the gloves like Costello did. But Costello was a lot smarter then Albert ever was. That's why one died in bed and another died on a barbershop floor. I'm sure Costello was swimming in money. Why risk war and death when toucan step a side with millions inthe bank and live the rest of your days peaceful. But that's not Albert as everyone knows. He would have cause havoc if he survived but i also think the commission would have stepped in to mediate. You have to think who the bosses were at the time. They would have avoided the bloodshed.

well, I agree, however if he would have lived, he would have known his bodyguards were in on it, and also he would have suspected Gambino, and he would have hit Gambino, commission or no commission.

Makes you think what would have happened if he survived and it went to the commission. Do you think they would have suspected Carlo or just thought of Genovese acting alone.

Do you think they would have suspected Carlo or just thought of Genovese acting alone. with a hit that big everybody in the mob would know it was a setup. it would have to be to get Anastasia. carlo was taking a big chance, and ive read two different versions of who ordered it. in "the mob and the city" alex hortis says that Anastasia met with santos trafficante the morning of the hit, shortly after the meet santos went back to tampa. and in "five families" raab says it was vito Genovese and profaci, and Gambino, joey gallo used to brag that he and his brother hit Anastasia, both being profaci hitters. but gallo could have been bragging. trafficante came into the mix because Anastasia wanted in cuba. its a mystery.

What's wrong with what-ifs, man? After a while you run out of things to talk about. Plus, it's pretty quiet out there, the new leadership is keeping things on the DL.
I realize it's pure speculation but some what ifs are pretty interesting for a discussion, especially 40s-50s scenarios when the CN was at its peak.
-I shot him a coupla' times. -What's a couple? -Hmm, more than a couple... Really I don't know the exact amount, maybe I shot him 10 times, 12 times? -Maybe fifteen? -Hmm, it could've been fifteen...
