Sacco and Vanzetti Trial

Are these men really guilty? Were they found guilty upon some nonveliable eye witnesses, or because the gunmen were thought to be "Italian", or was it that they both didn't show to work.

On one morning of 1920, two men were shot and killed and money they were transported was stolen. Evidence of the killing was inconclusive and unthrorough.
Who would have thought two Italian immigrants working low playing jobs. Whom were very loyal to their cultures and lifestyles, that is the Italian culture. They became anarchists of the United States.

Nativism was big in the United States, now do you think that involved in the trial of Sacco and Vanzetti? Were they judged upon their decent. Evidence for the murder and bulgarary of these two men was inconclusive.
The bullets found on the murder location were never matched and no one ever had a legitimate testament of seeing these two Italian men.
Now was sentenced served or did the ignorance of Americans of the roaring twenties far too judgemental?

A to the C to the R to the OSTIC

after spending half an hour writing my dang acrostic poem it sent me to setting on my blogger.
i am SO mad ):

Reflection

GANGSTERS
Our organized crime presentation showed me the big gangsters of the roaring twenties. Where selling alchohol was illegal and killing was for fun. They killed to survived. They killed to grow as a gangster. Regardless of what they did, their number one goal was to become THE number one gangster. The gangster everyone will respect, the smart mouth, the one who can get out of any trouble. Organized crimes are still common now and murders still happen now but those gangsters were the Orignal Gangsters.
