Outlaw

The Resume

    (August 21, 1891-February 25, 1957)
    Birth name is George Moran
    Moved to the north side of Chicago
    Chicago Prohibition-era gangster
    Target of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre (1929)

Why he might be annoying:

    He was imprisoned three times before his 21st birthday.
    He changed his name to sound more Irish.
    He broke the arms and legs of a tailor because he felt he was discriminating against his Irish ethnicity. The strange thing is, he was born to Polish farm workers.
    He had a huge temper and did not think things through.
    He would claim moral superiority because his gang did not dabble in prostitution.
    He attempted to kill his arch rival, Al Capone, and failed (September 20, 1926).
    He hid in a warehouse like a coward during the St. Valentine's Day Massacre.
    He checked into hospitals to hide from his enemies.
    After Prohibition was lifted, he was squeezed out of business by Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky.
    He robbed a bank for $10,000 (which was nothing compared to what he used to earn) and was sent to prison for ten years (1946).
    Immediately after his release, he was arrested again for another bank robbery.
    He died in prison.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He lived longer than most gangsters.
    He was a devout Catholic.
    He is dead.
