They don't need to do anything to them. They're already pieces of crap, made by GM.

Indeed, since 9/11, the U.S. has never been out of the crosshairs of Islamist terrorists. At least 60 of their plots against the U.S. homeland have been thwarted over the last 13 years.
ISIS has at least as much resources as al-Qaeda did at the height of its powers in 2001. It’s closer to the West. ISIS also has three decades of transnational terrorism operations and expertise to draw on. Finally, according to a forthcoming report from the Countering Terrorism Center at West Point, the organization has been growing and planning for four years—plenty of time to put a successful operation together.
The U.S. government has known for quite some time that Vegas—a symbol of Western decadence—is a prime target, and they’ve taken that threat quite seriously. The city has received anti-terrorism grants for years from the Department of Homeland Security. The department also set up an Information Sharing and Analysis Center in part to address the vulnerabilities and threats to the entertainment, lodging, and shopping activities that dominate the Vegas economy.

I’m not so sure Cosa Nostra are much of a threat to AQ or ISIS anymore. They mostly want to keep their boat afloat. They might do an assasination if one of their kids got shot though, but knowing how Cosa Nostra operates, that would be pretty hard, even for them, to get the job done.
If this were really about Islam then the logical target would be Los Angeles or San Francisco. LA for the filth it puts out in movies, entertainment etc. and San Francisco for it's moral depravity. However ironically leftists are generally the biggest supporters of terrorism.
Detroit is a much more accurate symbol of Western Decadence than Las Vegas.
Blow up the dam, the town will immediately die w/o water.
They better not go to that pawn shop. They could walk into that pawn shop with $10,000 in cash and try to pawn it and those guys would offer them 37 cents.
“I have to make some money, too!”
It wouldn’t be hard or require a lot of actors to create chaos in any urban area.
I took $500 to a Vegas blackjack table once. Let me tell you, I was terrorized. I still have nightmares about being repeatedly dealt a six and a ten.
Ask dirty harry reid, he’s probably using money from all of his shady finances to bankroll them, as part of some land-grab scheme.
Yup, as bad as the Mafia was in Vegas, they, like tin-pot dictators kept it under control. Think the movie, "Casino".
Since the Mob got squeezed out from corporate junk bonds and turned it into Disneyland, it is a prime target. Surprised they haven't been hit yet, but most barbarians are far away. However, with out open borders, I expect to see Vegas attacked within my lifetime. Hit Vegas with a dirty bomb or numerous suicide bombers or individual gunners and Nevada's economy will fail, not to mention the nation's economy.
While some of you think that Vegas is SIN CITY, I love Vegas. While I don't gamble, there is a lot to do there when not wasting your money on the "house". Got married to the love of my life at an Elvis (best impersonator) ceremony. Too fun. Flew out the entire family and friends on our dime and now have one my best memories.
So, you were stuck with the “Old Man”?
Obama’s reluctance to whack fellow Muslims is not a compunction shared by Vito Coleone.
Clean it up?
You forgot about drinkin’ and watchin’ porn. Of course all in an attempt to throw us off.
The mob wasn’t much help before, during, nor after 9/11.
Hmmmm. You could have the run of the place.
I’ve only watched it a couple of times. My favorite is when they call in an expert to value something. The expert will tell the customer, “You should be able to get ten thousand dollars for that.” Then the pawn guy will offer the customer a buck and a quarter for it. And 75% of the time, the customer will take the buck and a quarter.
I wouldn’t post what seem to be potential threats. Might give the maniacs ideas and rationale.
The idea of a bunch of well-dressed gangsters taking out the jihadists at the next toll booth might be appealing, but it’s fantasy. Mobsters aren’t trained in the desert from the time they can walk to fight until death for a demonic god.
The mob would just as soon do business with them than dare to take them on.
Well, if the 9/11 terrorists are any guide, they will drink and pick up hookers. They are a bunch of sexually-repressed hypocrites.
