ShaneMacGowansTeeth posted:Going back to Hamsterdam, did Colvin ever have a plan to mop up his mess? I mean, he tells all of the officers that after a while they will go down and bust all of the dealers there... but he's going out with a major's pension and 30 years service. It seems to me like the whole idea was to get his figures up and pass the problem on to someone else. I mean, he sure as gently caress must have known that if he got caught legalising drugs that he was going to be fired and give all that up. I don't think Colvin ever intended to clean up Hamsterdam. That whole idea was just put out there to get his guys on board. He had 6 months left and he wanted to go out actually making a difference. That's the whole crux of the paper bag speech - alcohol laws were keeping police from doing real police work, until it was hidden from view. You can see his frustration with the system in his scenes with Carver and Herc, asking what they had brought the different perps in for. He felt it was a waste of time and the only way he could think of to do real police work was to literally make the problem disappear. Edit: Also, based on the paper bag speech, he legitimately thought this would fly since it was a parallel thing in his mind. That's why he's so shocked and angry when he gets busted down. I don't think he ever once considered that he would get in trouble for it. primaltrash fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Feb 7, 2013 |

escape artist posted:"Pawns are out the game quick..." D'Angelo makes the foreboding statement, which we all know is true. As D'Angelo, Wallace and Bodie-- expendable pawns-- all meet their deaths when they challenge the institution. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RO9ZU40RSqw&t=39s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YECcGWN5aY "Unless they some smart-rear end pawns." Bodie's line and he's one of the last pawns left standing. He was taken out of the game, but it wasn't early.

As a pretty good deal notice, I was able to buy the wire the complete series DVDs on Amazon com last night. They were 50 percent off and then by applying for an Amazon credit card (which I'm just gonna use for Kindle purchases anyway) I was given a $50 gift certificate which brought the cost down to about $60. I swear this isn't some sort of viral advertising.
