Dangelo was just a hiccup. When Avon got out of jail he was about to ride on Marlo with grenades and shyt. Stringer giving the cops Avons location was the nail in the coffin


They left
again. Without Dangelos actions there wouldn't be cops looking for Avon period

D and his uncle set off the chain of events all stringa did was try to prevent them

:Smartbey:

D and Avon would have been alright. They were family. Avon knew that D would never cross the line of family.

The problem I thought with the organization was that there was internal problem between Avon wanting to stay street, but Stringer wanted to take the organization corporate. So the organization was already in trouble and could not react in a timely manner to threats like Marlo and Omar.

Naw that isn't right. Even if D caused the organization to suffer, Stringer completely killed it.

nikka ordered the hit on D, lied to his mamma, beat down Avon and then fukked everything up with the Brother Mouzone shyt.

Avon hires Brother Mouzone to help retain territory from Prop Joe drug dealers, unaware that Stringer has a a undisclosed agreement with Prop Joe. Stringer honestly thought a drug dealer who is going to college could run this like a business but he overestimated his abilities. So in order to rid of himself of Mouzone, Stringer convinces Omar that his boyfriend was tortured and murdered by him when in fact Stringer and Avon are themselves responsible. This led to Omar and Brother Mouzone to come to a stand off, Omar not killing him and them working together to murder Stringer. Since Stringer is gone they no longer were in the agreement and thus Avon no longer had someone try talking him out of going full Rambo, so he went full on war mode with Marlo. Bodie and a bunch of Avons guys were then killed off due to taking no prisoners. Prop Joe himself got himself killed with Marlo running loose without Stringer trying to control him.

Regardless of who did what, the countless threads and discussions 15 years later prove this is by far the greatest show ever on TV
:wow:



The Wire was a show about a white man(mcnulty) obsessed with seeing the fall of Blackmen rising to power. That was the plot for season 1 and 3. By season 5 Mcnulty was so obsessed with taking down Marlo he became a fake serial killer, biting dead bodies and shyt.

I dont think I could ever give the title of "greatest" to a show about a white man obsessed with taking down Blackmen trying to rise to power.

In the end Poot was the only Barksdale soldier to get the W (by living, not the dopest 9-5 though :whoa:) after years of Ls due to D trying to be christlike in the game, Stringer trying to be Steve Jobs, Avon wanting to be Rambo, Bodie getting his dome blown off ( held shyt down though, a real one :salute:), of course Wallace being shook by the death of Omar's boy & nikkas getting punked by Marlo & company.

:mjpls:

Dude was biting dead bodies just to get the proper attention on Marlo. He didnt give a fukk about losing his job...He didnt give a fukk about going to prison. His goal was to take down Marlo(a Black man rising to power) and if biting a dead body gets the ball rolling then so be it.

Do u not remember how upset Mcnulty was when he found out Stringer was killed? He was upset because he didnt get the opportunity to take him down himself. U would think "ok he's dead" but no...thats not good enough....u express your upset because your goal was to take down the Blackman and u didnt get a chance to do so.

The Wire was 5 seasons of a white man obsessed with taking down Blackmen rising to power.
