Okay Ice, I'll go along with that.

Although, if Kay and the children were harmed, I don't really think it would have been deliberate.

But, as I said, I'll go along with it, because it's a sad fact of life that in any war, there is bound to be collateral damage.

As far as Michael's quest for legitimacy, by Godfather Part 2 it was too late.

The point that Turnbull made, and the point that I was responding to, was that Michael still had a window of opportunity to escape the life when he came home from Sicily, while Vito was still alive.

I still agree with Turnbull that Michael could have approached Vito and I'd have to believe that Vito could have made a deal for him to be peacefully let out, free to go his own way in life.
