OPINION The Wire - A Hindsight Discussion

iirc, the wire was supposed to be only 1 season so it might just be an unitended consequence
tie between String/Joe
probably lean towards Joe
as slimy as they were, I respect them both going out like gangsters once they realized their life couldn’t be bought

I didn't know the actor that played Prop Joe died in real life, 7 years ago.

Naw Randy s mom really stood out to me.... every other death was in the game...Ms Anna didn’t deserve that
Damn i forgot all about that. The scene with Randy & Herc in the hospital might arguably be the best scene in the whole series.

Put it like this:
You're right..........and you're wrong.
What you said was true about Brother Mouzone, but only in the sense that.........if he wasn't doing business with Avon.........nobody in New York was going to do business with Avon either.
You're wrong because Brother wasn't directly connected to the drug trade other than as protection/security.
The people directly involved in the NY drug trade (in terms of supplying the product) were just waiting to hear back from Brother about how Avon was going to handle the Stringer situation.
Basically, when Brother went to see Avon in the Barber Shop, he was just acting as a messenger/intermediary between Avon and the "powers-that-be" in New York.
Meaning, it was never going to be Brother's decision about whether or not New York chose to deal with Avon.
His role was solely to relay the message back to New York about what Avon decided to do with Stringer.
So, again, you're right in the sense that Brother's situation with Avon would determine whether or not New York would do business with Avon in the future.......but wrong in your belief that Brother himself had the power to make that call.

Wallace
Wallace was fucked up mentally from them killing brandon
he ain’t wanna do none of that shit no more
Daniels sent him down with his nana so he could maybe testify
he came back on his own because he missed his life in Baltimore
as soon as he got back stringer and Avon said yo we gotta tie up loose ends and send his own niggas who we considered friends to kill him.
He was a kind hearted smart kid too

All in the game yo
but I always wondered if Levy s contact at the courthouse led to Wallace getting body bagged
