@Dob_Peppino;
How were the Profaci’s dysfunctional long before the Gallo’s??
We’re there another opposing faction in the family that opposed Profaci during his early reign 1930’s-1940’s?? Things started to change in the mid 50’s; but you’re implying there were guys revolting in the 1930’s and 1940’s.
We’re there any other guys in the family that could have stood up to Profaci??
I agree with your assessment about Bonanno; he just made two mistakes; Not installing a old timer in the administration (He had his son as Consigliere? There were guys in the family for over 30 years and they weren’t chosen) and the mishandling of the Lucchese/Gambino situation.

Not saying there was revolts. But The Profacis were always unstable in comparison to the other Families. There is a underbelly of the Profaci Family was always gangster. Profaci ordered a few more hits than he is given credit for. Bonanno also had more opposition during his tenure than is generally know but all in all, Bonanno was more respected in America and Sicily.
