      Stringer was way better at hiding his British accent. McNulty slips constantly. Apparently it took him dozens of takes to say snot boogie with an American accent

      I think Chris is a Brit also. They really got the Baltimore accent down. I guess that's why they call it acting. :)

    Stringer was such an awesome character.
    If he’d been born to a wealthy Connecticut family he’d have been a US senator or finance guy.
    On the other hand, if he’d stuck to drugs instead of trying to get into shady real estate deals and kept his eye out for surveillance he could’ve made millions.
    His fatal mistake was that he tried to toe the line between two worlds. He wanted to be gangster, but he wanted to run it like a business. And he wanted to be in business, but he wanted to play it like a gangster.
    If he’d just picked a lane and stayed in it-he was a brilliant guy-he would have succeeded

      Right, and that's why his fate was so sad and tragic

      True. But what really did him in was thinking he could set up Brother Mozzone AND Omar. Two most intelligent men in the game. Men with a code. Stringer never had a code

      He could have went legit. At this point he had millions of dollars and could have easily walked away. He didn’t have a criminal record so he could have become anything he wanted.

      Honestly, I love this character, but I can't say I completely disagree with you. Maybe if people are placed in the right positions where they can maximize their abilities, it doesn't matter even if they are sociopaths! I'm sure if a character like Sherlock Holmes wasn't a detective, he could have become a ruthless criminal!

      @bellatime Those in the suits doing all the big dirt usually come from good and modest backgrounds. Most are placed in instutions that maximize their abilities, like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, ect.
