an insult to Italian-Americans!

This is the guy who really runs Vegas.

Well, used to, anyway.

It wouldn’t surprise me.

From what I’ve understood, Mormons pride themselves of being good businessmen and there’s, obviously, a lot of money to make in Vegas.

wow.

I thought Bugsy Siegel started Vegas and that Green and Lansky took over shortly thereafter.

There’s a famous catholic priest, Fr. Corapi who used to be a businessman and wound up a financial consultant to celebrities in Hollywood.

He started out in Vegas and claims that mormons would front the money and send non-Mormons like him to be the “face” of the business, so as not to associate the seedy nature of Vegas with the Latter Day Saints.

So what’s wrong what what he said? Oh, maybe they’re upset because he forgot to mention Italian mafioso.

“To Be or Not To Be” isn’t a fantastic movie; it’s a remake of a Jack Benny comedy made during the War, but it’s very funny. Mel Brooks, Anne Bancroft, Charles During, and Christopher Lloyd are in it.

“”A blond Swedish Viking will have a hard time breaking through the hierarchies that control Vegas,””

Hey, there’s an opening now for a Nordic big cat act!

Thanks for telling me.

In one way, the US is indeed a ‘great melting pot’. On the other hand, ethnicity (still) seems to play a big role in the US just like in many other parts of the world..

Nothing wrong with that as long as there’s a ‘tongue in cheek’ attitude involved in it all, like I feel there is.

In contrast to PC politicians of all nations, TRUE Americans seem to have a great deal of humour.

Best of regards from Gothenburg, Sweden.

That’s a clip from The Godfather. The character Moe Greene was based on Bugsy Siegel.

He must have meant Christians and Jews. /sarcasm

“In contrast to PC politicians of all nations, TRUE Americans seem to have a great deal of humour.”

I think that without a sense of humor, there is either depression or insanity.

In my case anyway.

What . . . no Italians???

At least in Vegas Jews and homosexuals get along . . . unlike in Italy! ;-)

[WhiteGuy]

Swedish magician Joe Labero has provoked a strong reaction with suggestions that Las Vegas is controlled by “Jewish business syndicates, American dollar millionaires and homosexual booking agents”.

Someone has to be in charge.

- Very true!

[Zionist Conspirator]

This was a great man, a man of vision and guts. And there isn’t even a plaque or a signpost or a statue of him in that town.

Hey, look at how long it took William Hulbert to make it to Cooperstown!
