      @@shardaemitchell3053it’s a dirty game in Baltimore. You gotta be as dirty as them sometimes. Being from MD. Baltimore is a whole other type of drug market you won’t find anywhere in the US everything is organized every corner is watched by lookout boys. It’s not just your normal dude on the corner in Baltimore. Some streets the kids will run up to your car if you’re white. When I use to be a full blown addict about 9 kids surrounded my car yelling over the other to sell my viles of crack. It’s literally insane and easiest place ever to score drugs. Being an addict in Baltimore is pretty much a death sentence nowadays and every block gives out testers everyday for free. You don’t even gotta pay money to be a drug addict in Baltimore. If you up early enough you can get testers from almost every block.

    Considering how much Omar trades on his rep later on in the series, you'd think all the dealers would have known who he was for years by now and he wouldn't have cared that Brandon said his name.

      I explain it to myself that Barksdale from the Baltimore perspective has risen to power recently. It's mentioned when Stringer talks to Marlo that drug kingpins have come and go.Either way,they should have known Omar by then. Maybe they just haven't seen him and wouldn't have been looking for him and his crew if Brandon didn't say his name, instead just thinking they're some random stick-up men?

      streets full of snitches, just ask Huggy Bear! Where i live the cops had posters & adverts saying "too much bling give us a ring" & thats for real cos always some1 jealous for what the other man got. Too much bling, give us a ring, think on that when the word loyalty pops up!! WTF?

    Brandon's death is not highlighted enough. He's basically the Ned Stark of the Wire. He dies and Omar goes on a war against the Barksdale organization and sets so many events to happen in the story.

      Because only really Bird knew him from their time down the cut. Omar never had the rep he would come to have in later seasons, he got that going to war with Avon. In season 2, people think he's dead before he comes back to town. Then, being a fan favourite they jumped the shark with him from season 3 onwards.

      Someone would have known him, if not by face, by name
      He’s been robbing mid to high level dealers work for years and shot the boy Mike Mike in his hind parts
      These things don’t go unnoticed especially when people like wee bay and stink um have a job as enforcers
      Even if we bay said “nah homeboy locked up, must be someone using his name” it would have closed that plot hole

      @@mikeclemets863yeah totally, I guess it just seemed harsh because he seemed to have a softer spot for people who weren't "upper management" and actively trying to harm him. Even a pistol shot to the leg would seem more tame, but the shotgun blast just seemed gratuitous. As you can tell, I have overthought this scene.

      If the guy had answered honestly first time, he wouldn't have been shot. Omar needed to make an example out of him, so "Shorty" didn't hesitate to answer correctly the first time. No time to play on a heist.
