This is where all of the 1920s Valentine’s Day stuff comes from on gta online . The reason the tommy gun is called the gussenberg sweeper is because that was the only survivor . However most people I talked to about this on gta did not know and many didn’t seem to care. Small correction though the north side gang was not an irish gang . While it had many Irish leaders it was pretty multicultural. The previous leader Hymie Weiss was Polish and considered to be the only man al Capone ever feared .
There are many thoughts of how Valentine's Day started. Here is one of them: The Catholic Church recognizes at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred. One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine’s actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death. www.history.com/topics/valentines-day/history-of-valentines-day-2
Basically the paragraph is saying that soldiers with loved ones were thought to be weak so the emperor made a rule for the soldiers to not have loved ones. But a soldier named Valentine broke it and died

FUN FACT!: in las vegas, theres a mob museum where a section of the wall from that garage is being preserved and shown to the public. It still has some blood spatter and large bullet holes on it. Plus some of Capones belongings are there. Also in the casino whisky petes they have the Dutchmans bullet proof Lincoln and bonnie and clydes death car. I recommend visiting those two sites if your on way to vegas

My husband's grandfather was Chicago for an electricians course just around the corner from the massacre site. He heard the shots and started run for the exit to see what was going on. His teacher and several others who were from the area grabbed him and told him he didn't want to know what was going on. Not sure if they knew or were just used to the violence.
I live 2 hours away from Chicago and went on a Mob Tour and we drove right by where the building was but they took it down. You can still see some damage.
Murder of Dutch Schultz would be another interesting topic if you do other crime syndicate related videos. His rambling last words are very intriguing.
Same thing happened on 14 Feb 2019 in my country India . 40 soldiers martyred in a suicide attack . We will revenge this soon . And this day will never b celebrated as valentine's day in my country from now onwards
@elite13 this attack was done by a nation named Pakistan, Pakistan is opposite of peace and it is the same nation where Osama bin Laden was living and was killed
@Mr. Random we are a stronger nation than Pakistan but we Indians follow a policy of no initial attack which means that we will never attack any nation in first place , so we don't attack Pak and then this is what happens all the time
It’s so odd knowing if he didn’t go to that coffee shop I might not have been born. I’m related to George Moran with DNA proof. And it is true he died penniless. Might wanna add that he was buried in a porters grave and is still on the prison grounds he died in.

I think this is pretty accurate, but there was some literature on this incident which suggested that the two plain clothes men came in the rear entrance not the front, where the two alleged policemen came in. They were dropped off in the back by a second car as the alleged police car was seen in front and the two cops got out. This might make sense because then the policemen would be seen bringing out two plainclothes men who were not actually seen in front when the alleged police car pulled up. Highball, the dog, was the only witness to the event besides the killers. 70 shots were fired altogether, 50 from a drum Thompson and 20 from a stick clip. I liked this portrayl.
