		Although Colombo was eminently qualified for this triple-header of a hit, and although Magliocco considered him to be one of his most capable captains, there was one thing he didn't know about Joe.
		Colombo would remain that way for the next seven years, and although this didn't bring about the end of Colombo it did bring an end to the Italian-American civil rights league.
		Many rumours surfaced as to who and why Colombo was to be hit, but I think the most obvious answer is to understand the fact that by continuing with the civil rights league he went against the wishes of Carlo Gambino, and by doing this Colombo signed his own death warrant.

		Colombo's idea was that this would make Italian Americans proud of their heritage, and that in unity they would be able to fight the authorities' alleged victimization of them.
