There was a movie called day of the jackal and a real dude they called that because they found the book when raising one of his hide outs. It’s not far fetched a bunch of wannabe assassins wen up to the library or robbed the local video store of all the movies about hot men and shit.

McNulty got sent to the boat and escaped by learning oceanography to fuck over his former boss.

Lester got sent to the pawn shop unit and stayed there for over a decade. He would still be there today if not for McNulty.

In a world full of Lesters, be a McNulty.
>>
>>217203683
I’m not saying it’s unrealistic but damn that unit has too many sergeants. He had like four detectives. Should have been at least ten.
>>
>>217204187
That’s my favorite scene in the show. I love Rawls so goddamn much.
>>
>>217204259
He’s pretty much wish fulfillment until season 5. An old man comes out of the unit he was put away in for 13 years and is magically the best detective in the entire police department and an expert on modern police technology and never makes mistakes or gets into trouble. Oh and he has a hot 20 year old girlfriend who loves him unconditionally.

>>217206573
The Wire is full of plausible characters that feel real. Obviously self inserts like Colvin, Gus and Lester detract from it.
>>
>>217207136
This adjusts for economic factors but not socio ones. Black people have inferior culture which leads to lower job and academic performance. The book Black Rednecks and White Liberals explains why this is - they developed their culture from their adjacency to southern white trash, who were descendants of the British white trash (Scots-Irish) that emigrated from the borderlands of north Britain.
