What are your personal opinions on Al Capone & Pablo Escobar?

(1/3) > >>

Just Another Sunny day in California:
IMO these dudes are legends, i'm not saying the way they lived was right but i just find them & their lives so interesting.  2 of America's Most Wanted

Trauma-san:
I don't know much about them, but I believe there is something to be learned in everything, nothing is without merit... even a gangster you can learn something from, even if you just hold them up as an example of what NOT to be.  There's nothing wrong with being interested in something dark or even negative as long as you don't let it consume you. 

ABN:
i view Pablo Escobar as someone who damn near a destroyed and entire generation of people in the pooret areas around the world. show me where his grave is and i´ll take a shit on it. don´t really know anything about Al Capone and how big his organization really was.

Don Rizzle:
they both achieved legendary staus

escobar: Who else can say they were allowed to build their own private "prison" which the authorities were not allowed within 20 miles of! no wonder he just carried on what he was doing!

Capone: he was like the mayor of chicago, but i would say a man like jo bonanno achieved legendary status more, he was very much old school, conservative, low profile, etc. and he was the boss of one of the new york 5 families for like 40 years until he got forced out by the new school guys who were into drugs etc. if the mafia had followed the example of bonanno they would still enjoy the prominence they had 60 years ago. but they had leaders like gotti who wanted to be another capone always in the public eye and that just increases the determination for the governement to come get you because its like rubbing salt in their eyes
