Today we have something Tommy literally knows nothing about besides movies and tv shows.
Today is all about the prohibition in the US during the 1920s aka the Roaring 20's.
We all know America is an insane place to be and a clown show, that will be even more solidified after you see what happens during this time in history.
Gonna be learning a lot today, from Al Capone and Wayne Wheeler to how women rose up and made some big changes happen when no one was expecting them to.
IT'S PROHIBITION TIME!
REMEMBER! This is all educational and for entertainment! We will moderate comments, so behave yourself and keep it educational.

Someone tell him that the line is correct in Oklahoma. The line is where we placed all the Indians for a while
I thought that was the no man's land that neither Texas or Oklahoma claimed.
@@beepbop6542 yes and no, when Oklahoma as a state was made that pan handle was Texas’s but the entire state of Oklahoma was Indian so they just moved them to the panhandle and told Texas and Oklahoma they lost the case in the Supreme Court because they couldn’t come to an agreement
It wasn't separate, there was a reservation but it was still apart of the state. Reservations do have autonomy but they're still apart of the state.
oh

During his autopsy it was discovered that Al Capone's brain was riddled with scars and lesions from stage 3 syphilis. The neurological damage is thought to be a large reason behind his bombastic extreme violence mixed with benevolence and grandstanding behavior that made him both effective as a mob boss and adored as a public figure.
Idk, can someone source this?

12:45 in addition to “Liberty cabbage,” the town of Potsdam, Missouri was renamed “Pershing,” after the American general. they brought back the term “liberty cabbage” for World War II. My grandmother, who was a teenager during the Second World War, told me that just a day or two after Pearl Harbor, a street in her town called “German Street,” was swiftly renamed “American Street.”
americans man
@@TommyKay Chicago has so many people of german/Irish decent in the police that we never enforced the prohibition and never renamed our german monuments during the war. Still called Sour kraut cabbage tho. We are proud to have the largest german style Christmas market in America every year in downtown Chicago
@@TommyKay Kraut! Jk love you. ❤️
Yes, German Americans were shunned too. My great grandfather forbid the speaking of German in the family for fear of reprisal. Sadly, I only know a few German words now.
Apparently a guy grew up on Dutch street. It was renamed to Liberty Street. Oh america
7:30 The line is actually right, It’s the Oklahoma panhandle. The strip of land was claimed by Texas but over time the state was shrunken down. For a long time it was only inhabited by natives, so was deemed a no mans land. in 1862 Congress said it was unable to be settled, so a bunch of settlers went there anyways and tried to establish a territory there called the Cimarron Territory. It was officially & unofficially surveyed throughout the 1880’s and given to Oklahoma in 1890.
Ur wrong
@@antigov7839 Ok Callum Kent
@@Therecreep ??
It was not "claimed" by Texas. It was Texas. But due to early voting laws texas was too big. So the panhandle was given to oklahoma. Which is just the first in a long line of oklahoma getting what texas doesn't want
Texas finally gave it up officially because they wanted to own slaves, and that part of the panhandle extended “too far north”

One of my great grandfathers got arrested for making beer during those times. He was a German living in Minnesota. Eventually he was pardoned, of course. Laubach was his last name.
Laubacher Pils
If it would be Richter i would question if he judged himself innocent :D
@@hanneswurstbrot6902 well, he married my great grandmother whose last name was Richter
Woah, that's actually cool! A great grandfather of mine was a moonshiner in Alabama during that time. He worked for about 7 years, and while he was never arrested, and he never turned into a powerful mob boss, but he ran booze up and down the counties, until the Great Depression hit.
He spent 2 years in prison for bootlegging 3000 times and the mother had one still and spent life in prison - thats the us justice system
*facepalm*
i bet the mother was pardoned

Don't worry, half of Europe would also burst into flames if alcohol would be forbidden in their country.
Everyone would be mad at that. Like who rd doesnt like alcohol??

"Black Friday" is a good thing for businesses. It happens the day after Thanksgiving in the U.S. where almost all the stores have big sales on their items. When they make a profit it is referred to as being "in the black" hence "Black Friday". Being "in the Red" is when they lose money. It has nothing to do with the Stock Market crash.
He was on the right track, though. The stock market crash was "Black Tuesday."
It's a German thing: www.bpb.de/politik/hintergrund-aktuell/69271/80-jahre-schwarzer-freitag-23-10-2009
You know when you had your black Thursday over there it was already Friday in Europe.
Schwarzer Freitag means black friday.
The line in Oklahoma is correct. At the time, the area west of the line was a territory, not a state, and it was eventually absorbed by Oklahoma to deny Texas of land, at least to my understanding.
I thought it was a problem with slavery. After Texas was admitted, and opted to become a slave state, they has to comply with the Missouri compromise. So they gave up a small piece of land to remain compliant with the law.
In Kansas we have like a whole chapter in our middle school history books about Carrie A. Nation

Upper Franconia has the biggest regional density of breweries in entire germany. Imagine something like that would hit us, we would burn the Reichstag and the entirety of Berlin with it.
Be honest, you dont need prohibition to want to burn Berlin.

They leave out alot of the George Remus story. His wife didn't just sell his shit and file for divorce. She wrote him and his own children out of his own legal business empire, liquidated all his assets, stole and hid as much of the money as she could, and left him with only $100 when he came out of prison, then she and her new corrupt boytoy prohibition agent hired an assassin to kill him for $15,000. The assassin instead felt bad for Remus, and feared getting backstabbed and instead told him everything. He killed his wife probably because his life was literally in danger at that point while she was alive.
14:50........... I, a resident of the state of South Carolina partly controlled by the federal government of the United States of America find deep anger in the statement and or words that have been vocalized out of his mouth.
I as a resident of the state of North Carolina can mutually agree.

The only react channel that I was waiting for. But surprisingly you didn't say much at the German part of the video.
only found this channel today but im already loving it
Keep up with this content, you generally make my day 👍
14:50 Carolinians are coming for you
When Tommy confused the Carolinas and Georgia with north and South Dakota 😩
There's still a town my family vacations at every year that still has the prohibition laws, just never bothered to remove them. The next town over has so many liquor stores to compensate it's hilarious.
Lot of places are still dry to this day, I didn't even know until I finally got to travel. Went thru Tennessee and my nana told me about how in many counties you have to go over to the next to buy alcohol. That's pretty hard to believe from growing up seeing liquor stores practically everywhere in KY. more ya know ig
I've heard stories of distant family having a huge drum making moonshine during prohibition near Elizabethtown i think. Lot of em got killed by them agents. Crazy times. Ill update if I can find some old articles from then.
There's a lot of small inaccuracies and misconceptions in Oversimplified videos, but they're really entertaining so it almost makes up for it
well yeah its literally called Oversimplified
Can you please name a few?

Fungus gnats. The way I get rid of them is by drying the pots and adding only small amounts of water till gone, with sticky traps. Or use something with citric acid(not lemon or orange juice) in the water, and it'll fry the eggs and larvae

tommykay looks like a job for me!
I learnt from video YOU CANNOT STOP AMERICANS
I’m related to moonshiners from West Virginia. Moonshine is pretty easy to make, as it starts with a grain mash that ferments like beer. Then you use a still to distill the mash. I still make beer at home, and it’s common to have moonshine show up at parties.
Waited for this
My great Grandpa ran Moonshine for Al Capone, and my Stepdad was once a Pen Pal with the leader of a mafia, forgot which one though
6:23 I fucking swear to God that I thought she was going to say "I'm going TO BRASIL"
I’m from Wichita, Kansas, a place where Carrie Nation destroyed a saloon. We have a small statue of her downtown, in Kansas she’s a bit of a legend
Fun fact this was the reason why the Thompson was banned in the u.s. only the Thompson and now you need a Pacific machine guns license and Manufacturing license to own machine guns in the US now
Tommy i know this problem with flies. You dont need to change the dirt you need to put sand on the dirt. Like 1cm.
Tom: Points towards Georgia and calls it South Dakota
Entire chat: And I took that personally
about 2 years ago we discovered a bunch of really old whiskey bottles under my grandparents house this is a small town in the Canadian okanogan
7:30 the line there Is meant to be there because before oklahoma was a state it consisted of two territories, the public land strip (which was the panhandle) and the Indian territory. Eventually the two combined into the state of oklahoma and now has the public land strip as a distinct panhandle.
28 days later theme whilst he’s talking about Infection
7:50 Those lines weren't wrong at the time, the US states weren't solidified yet so parts in the Midwest were "Organized Unincorporated Territories" of the USA. You can also see that North/South Dakota aren't split.
I probably got some of that wrong, feel free to correct me in my replies if you want.
Yoo the confidence in saying "South and North Dakota" whilst scrolling over Georgia and S Carolina had me dyin lol. Love ya Tommy.
Tommy talked about my state and now I’m happy
4:46 Hungary, pálinka (I don't know what is it in English)
Canada still has the prohibition in Nunavut, a territory btw to this day lmao
Alcohol is still outlawed in so counties in America. There called dry counties.
Another name for corn whiskey (moonshine) was mountain dew. That's how the soda mtn dew got its name. Mtn Dew (the soda) was also apparently originally intended to be a mixer soda for alcohol.
I like how this german guy is like. "Isn't that how it is everywhere".

My fathers great uncle was a trucker who made deliveries from the Canadian border back home to NYC, during this time he also delivered alcohol and other contraband hidden in the truck to both Italian and Jewish mob networks in Brooklyn. Due to this consistent “income” he was able to survive the depression better than most others.
Actually that was the map for a while. That area was known as No Man’s Land that was part of Texas before it gave up lands to form parts of other states and territories in exchange for the Feds taking on debts accrued when Texas was a republic. What is now Oklahoma comprises what used to be Indian Territory plus No Man’s Land.
19:00 you serious bout that? idk if ill take you up on that cuz im insecure but respect + 100 mate
3:21 LMFAOOOOOO!!!!!!!
I love these videos. 😂
From watching these, it reveals many parallels of past issues with current issues.
Even though the issues are a century apart, it shows relevance and a repeat in U.S. History.
It goes to show, no one learns from the past and end up creating a new atmosphere of frustration, hypocrisy, and exhaustion.
My grandmother used to run a speakeasy in Chicago. Polish immigrants would come looking for work in the yards. After work they wanted a drink, some food and a place to sleep. So my grandmother “watered” them fed them and then they paid for A bunk in the back. Grandpa apparently got shot through the hand by Lucky Luciano too
Man, he didn’t even mention the origins of nascar. Smh
Oh yeah he didn't!
Having a jury isn't a bad thing nessesary. It's there for a reason, too hinder the gorvement of overreach or tyrannical laws.
In addition separating the power of the institutions might be a good idea. Like we do in Norway, we have Regjeringen (executive), Stortinget (legislative) and Domstolen (Courts).
Also during the prohibition, Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola became popular drinks. People can't have alcohol, so they'll go to the legal soda fountain for a cola.
What exactly is the music that plays at the beginning, I paid attention to it this time and it sounds good
Just a hint. Roosevelt ade the great depression worse... love an economist
Now if the Czech Republic outlawed alcohol...
There wouldn't be no Czech republic anymore
I have the theory that addicts uses the addiction to transfer the source of emotional anxitey from a trauma that cannot be dealt with to the addictive behavior. That way they can "gain control" over their suffering, they suffer because the're addicted and they can quit whenever they want thus stop suffering. This of course, never happens cause they need the addiction to hide the trauma and keep it repressed. The pacient will not recover until the trauma is adressed or a differnt form of repression it's adopted.

yeah a jury system is SO MUCH WORSE than allowing one singular judge to decide every case. /s
Think Tommy stroked out this video roflma0
In Denmark, there are a main judge and 2 "jury members" that are common people. These jury members are purely volunteers, and they are not the deciding factor, but they do have a conversation with the judge and have a "vote".
If you plead guilty, then there are no jury members, and the case goes straight to sentencing with a panel of 3 judges to agree on the sentence.
In most types of cases, it is still up to the judge to make the final decisions, but the votes are still announced.
However in the more serious criminal cases, the 2 jury members vote count the same as the judges, and if found guilty they have to come to a consensus with the judge for the penalty.
The "jury members" are the only ones who know that they have to arrive in court at a given time, they do not know for what case before they enter the court room.
But under no circumstance can someone be almost arbitrarily sentenced by the jury.
And the judges are working as judges as a profession, they are not elected by the vote.
If a judge goes off the rails in the sentencing, such as super lenient sentences to the rich and famous or if they feel sorry for the individual, then they will be investigated by an independent agency, there will a re-trial and the judge will get a punishment or be fired.
It is not far off the system in Germany and other parts of Europe.
Imagine getting cases decided by the moron public, instead of a judge that has a degree in law. /s
@@YekouriGaming It doesn't take a genius to apply the facts of a criminal case to the law. In civil cases, the parties can waive trial by jury if the subject matter is complex.
@@bobm123 The amount of arbitrary sentences in the US justice system contradicts your statement.
@@YekouriGaming Link? Also, you're talking about sentencing now, which is a matter that has essentially no nexus to legal reasoning or expertise. A judge is not any more qualified to hand down an appropriate sentence than a member of the public.
Mix 1 tablespoon of soap per quart of water, or 3 to 4 tablespoons of soap per gallon of water, and add a tablespoon of oil. Spray the earth and put a plastic film over to keep the flies out for a bit (2-3 days). Respray if you see any, but obviously dont spray too much or mold will grow.
Funnily enough my great grandad was part of al Capone’s mob group. He wasn’t present during the valentines massacre and wasn’t arrested by the Chicago police but he knew Al Capone personally we actually still have a painting of the two together drawn.
