You do realize that organized crime was into the aforementioned activities BEFORE they were into bootlegging, right? You do also know they made more money from booze AFTER Prohibition than during, right? You do understand that gangland killing has gone on long after Prohibition ended, right?

Please provide a citation for your claim that criminals make more money from illegal liquor sales now than they did during Prohibition. This defies common sense. When was the last time you bought an illegally sold beer?

While you are at it, provide a citation for your claim that gangland shootings over alcohol sales continue to this day.
