    A little longer in the system and he would have been. He was colder near the end of thr series. And remember, Bodie wasn't as hard as he was in the beginning. ? couldn't bring himself to ? Wallace, Poot had to put him down.

    I was thinking on who I thought had a parallel between characters, and I was thinking that Kenard could have been a Bodie just because they both had a no ? attitude. Neither of them had a problem opening their mouth and speaking their minds. Their differences come in where Kenard was able to just walk up on Omar and take him out. I could never see Bodie doing that.

    Reading this thread made me pull out the box set yesterday.

    SMH @ Santangelo missing Avon, String, and Stink in the pit when he was on the roof because he was taking a ? .

    Nah, Kenard was down to body someone as a child. He'd most likely grow up to be a sociopath with no regard at all for like like Weebay or Chris.

    I agree which is why I mentioned how they were different. I could never see Bodie doing it because he couldn't even really do Wallace. Matter of fact, I wonder how that would have played out if Poot was not standing there. Bodie didn't pull the trigger until Poot started yelling to get it over with if he was really going to do it. Bodie showed a little softness.

    That was Bodie's first ? and he killed somebody he worked with.

    Compare that to when Marlo wanted Bodie deadhe suggested Mike ? him, but Chris thought otherwise because his first ? shouldnt be someone he worked for

    Fixed that for you. Omar understood the killing, but he thought they went too far with the torturing and the disrespectful display of his body.

    The scene where Stringer wants Slim to ? Senator Davis and Avon checks him gets me every-time.

    "Nah you a businessman you dont wanna get all gangsta wild with it!!" lol

    Stringer was always tryna do things like a business man and always telling folks you can do stuff without all the gangsta ? . But the minute he gets screwed over he wants to ? a damn senator, which is totally against his code and definitely bad for business. lol

    Avon's stubbornness and ? for power and territory brought the whole thing down..

    I remember string told Avon that he told mouzone who shot him or something or that they was gonna do something about it and Avon cut him off and said "WHYY?!"

    Somebody refresh my memory

    Avon knew that Mouzone was a person to handle ? like that on his own so it was disrespect for Stringer to be asking who did it.
