Always heard the Dixie Mafia was more dangerous to be involved with than the real deal Italians. The Dixie Mafia didn’t really follow a strict code or rules. It was a half arse organized shite show of criminals and when something went south it was everyman for himself.

That's about right. It was a collection of cousins, uncles, brother in laws and we think we're cousins, and they didn't always get along.
My mother's father was probably the straightest of his family -- and the most successful -- but his house was still shot up twice. For what reason? I don't know. Just some Sand Mountain shite.
They had this huge glass window on the front of a relatively modest house. Glass was a quarter inch thick and throughout most of my life, it had 3 bullet holes through it.
I loved that man, but he was a straight up hustler. And I knew him in his 50s and 60s. I can only imagine what he got up to when he was younger.
Funny story: He was the only man I ever knew that made money on vacation. When my Dad bought our first house on the Gulf, he and my grandmother (the one I inherited the crazy from) would drive down to visit in his 1976 F150 XLT.
This one.
Learned to drive in that thing.
Anyway, he'd stay a week or two to hangout with the kids, but before he would leave he'd go down to the Marina and pack that truck full of shrimp, oysters and bonefish and take it back to the mountain. Sell it for a a 2000% markup and laugh the whole damn way.

I read that Bill Clinton was involved with them and they helped him become governor of Arkansas.
