95 years ago they called it the St Valentine's Day Massacre.  Today, they call it just another day of life in Chicago.

I'm old enough to have seen the Saint Valentines bullet ridden red brick wall in person. Of course it was at the Mobster Museum in Las Vegas. I'm a sucker for Mafia, gangster history. You heard me right, Bugsy.
