If you got a problem with authority why do you dislike McNulty? Dude is like the poster child for "fukk the system, do what I want".

He is trying to impose his authority on Stinger, Avon etc..That's what I mean. And he is fukkinh obsessive about too. Like I said I want somebody to put a couple of bullets in his head.

McNulty is not trying to impose his will on Stringer and Avon. His whole shtick is that he operates out of intellectual vanity. He can't accept that street thugs like Avon, Stringer or Marlo are smarter than him. That's also the reason he wants to after Stringer instead of Kintell Williamson, even though Kintell was dropping bodies and Stringer was not. He sees Stringer as smart, a worthy opponent, as opposed to Kintell who was a nobody. He's obsessed with arresting the big criminals not out of a sense of justice or because he empathizes with the victims of the drug trade, but because he wants to prove his superiority.
"Marlo's an asswhole. He doesn't get to win, we get to win!"

Even his problems with authority are just an extent of his intellectual vanity. Remember when the FBI guys profiled the "serial killer"?
"He likely is not a college graduate, but feels nonetheless superior to those with advanced education.[...]
He has a problem with authority and a deep seated resentment to those who he feels have impeded his progress professionally.[...]
His victimization of vagrants might merely present an opportunity for him to assert his superiority and intellectual prowess."

Sorry breh, but this has been clear ever since season 1. Remember this?

Also notice how he's always ranting about being real po-lice or natural po-lice. In his mind real po-lice are smart, not the idiots who only bust corners or write parking tickets.[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b54EEpdv9q8"]The Wire 3x09 - Lester Freamon, a wise man - YouTube[/ame]

three perfect seasons. no other show has had three perfect seasons, clearly the goat show.

people sh!t on season 2 but i think season 2 adds to the shows greatness. it shows the drug ish from a caac perspective as well.

One of the best moments of the final season, or the entire show.

McNulty was sitting there like:
