I agree about the similar structures and that they form an assemblage. I think what makes Omar so fascinating is not just that he operates between the two organizations but how he does it, the ways in which he does it, even though he of course never escapes them. I hope to write more I about this soon. I read the first two sentences of your recent thing on The Wire but stopped because I haven't yet watched season 5. But I will after I reach the end, or maybe before. Thanks, UN. I agree about the similar structures and that they form an assemblage.

I think your right that he is something of a novel type, the rogue criminal rather than rogue cop. This is because one of the interesting things about the "The Wire" is that it shows the "criminal" world as just as organized and structured as the legal world, because it is nothing but a part of it. I have written a few things about "The Wire" as well. I like your take on Omar. I think your right that he is something of a novel type, the rogue criminal rather than rogue cop.
