Spin off Thread-Most Lethal Crew (Barksdale, CMB, Tony and Nem, etc.

[BedRoomI'z]

Byrd in jail because he was a fukking junkie who couldn’t throw his gun away. Stink was slow and got caught slipping in the first half of season one. Slim Charles actually didn’t do shyt but constantly got his personal killed or locked up.
Soprano crew had cops on the payroll and patience.
Montana is the easy choice because he made more money than any of them and wouldn’t bother with a street crew like Marlo.

Let's not discount Omar being the reason that Stinkum got dropped or the
fact that the police actually did the work and caught up with them.

The Barksdale Organization didn't count on this one here!

Ole Lester Freamon was a gotdamn wizard. The man knew shyt that was going to
happen before it happened.

And, the fukk you mean, Slim Charles didn't do anything?

What did I that wasn’t true? Slim Charles killed a 16 year kid. He wasn’t respected by anyone in Barksdale crew.

These guys been with Avon longer and didn’t respect his plan or him and got killed.
Slim Charles was overrated. He shot Cheese when he didn’t expect it. Didn’t step up when Marlo offered him fresh territory.

Slim operate by code. That 16 year old was out there with Marlos crew, sucking on his inhaler, selling drugs. So what you expect. That's war and I don't know what Wire you watching where you felt noone respected Slim Charles. That's just how you felt about him.

Tell me this, what stopped Omar from blowing Charles away, if he didn't operate by a code? And you want to talk about respect, Slim Charles didn't respect Marlo because he knew his character and what he really was.

Yall kill me over hyping this so called reign that Marlo had. nikka was a young maniac black hearted with no kinda code.

Yeah okay buddy. Avon sold him the connect for 100k , Marlo flipped it for 10 million. In this scene he not respecting him right? All those guys respect Marlo.

Slim played the role to survive. Why didnt you pull the Co-OP video when Marlo raise the prices on them. Slim turned him down then. Look it was business at the end of the day. That didn't show that they respected Marlo. They were just speaking on their positions and what would happen once he left the game for good. You shytting on Slim not going to change the narrative. Mf walked away with the connect away, simply because of how he operated. Once Marlo got out of jail, folks didnt even know who he was.

Nice try tho.

Neither Barksdale nor Stanfield could never take it to the Greeks the way CMB took it to the Eyetalians.



If you had to rank it:
1. CMB - The video above explains everything. And they have a fukking boardroom.
2. Barksdale - They were just about to wipe Marlo's crew off the face of the Earth before they got snitched on. Avon controls shyt even in prison
3. Marlo - Chris and Snoop.
4. Sopranos - Only above Mitch because they have numbers. Also got cops on payroll.
5. Mitch/Rico/Ace - Their crew is too small. They're more into getting money and probably had more than Soprano's crew (not the whole mob). Rico saves them from being last.
6. Tony Montana - Tony is pretty smart before he starts using the coke. He has a lot of weapons, but not enough men. They're not savage enough either. Tony doesn't go around shooting randoms. Think about it. He's one of the few people on this list who you can bump into and probably get away with just saying sorry. Guys like Marlo, Rico, Tony Soprano will hurt regular civilians just because they felt offended in some way.

hell of breakdown

I rooted for Barksdale boys but Marlo crew was just too cold. Think of all the collateral damage and those killed just because, by Marlo boys. Marlo had Chris shook in jail. Snoop was right Michael could never be one of them.

I can't relate to most of the other crews. They were either too fictional. Or not strong enough.

Also Marlo was the only drug dealer who really enforced the no drugs policy for his crew.
Bird shooting H, Stink snorting coke with Bey. Slim Charles smoking dust with Bodie and Sham. Disgusting sloppy crew.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Marlo’s crew.

Snoop had no issue blasting someone and not even leaving the bodies where someone would find them.

Thankfully Michael wised up and turned the tables.

Back in the Barksdale days, Stringer would at least think the shyt out before they kill someone and as time went on he realized how bad the murders would be for his legit business interests. shyt, he even was more than open to a “civil” resolution with Omar.

With that said, everything in the Wire universe could’ve been contained but “a police” like McNulty and the crew were so focused on fukkery toward the end. Mayors only were concerned about cooking up stats and then when it came time to hand down some indictments, Levy always pulled up and got them charges flattened out

So let's say all these crews are dropping bodies at an equal-ish rate and the politicians need a set of cops to figure out what's going on and shut it down. Which of these natural poooleeeece is most likely to get this corrected?

Wires crew easy. They know the land and work hard. Miami vice crew work bigger crews. They deal with the middleman to the bosses.

Probably Dexter crew seeing as he gets every killer.. but then he'd kill them so they would need to watch him too

Good point

If Dex was doing his job minus the killing.........it would be interesting. He'd find the killers real quick, but his department is so bad that they'd trip over themselves and mess up the case. Plus chain-of-custody issues and a good defense attorney might shake things up. This is where your favorite gangsta lawyer comes in handy

A police like Freeman would figure their shyt out all by himself and then get an illegal wiretap for it and compromise the whole damn case.

Then Daniels would come out of his office and be like “this......... is bullshyt!”

 

[Child_Of_God]

Marlo the type of nikka that would order a hit on someone just because they looked at him the wrong way.
