I try to put aside politics and just enjoy a show. The creator is a jerk but I liked the show

RIP

He played Omar Little on the HBO drama series The Wire and Albert “Chalky” White on the HBO series Boardwalk Empire.

Omar Little was my favorite character.

What a shame.

Hunter Thompson said that the only people who actually know where ‘the edge’ is, are those who have gone over, guess this is just another one.

Damn, the guy was talented. He played the roughest and toughest gay man I’ve ever seen on the screen. Omar was a psychotic badass.

He had 111 credits which was a lot for his age https://www.imdb.com/filmosearch?role=nm0931324&job_type=actor

This story reflects a tragedy, a tragedy that affects all of us. My brother died of an overdose and most families have a similar story. The Liberals foisted all of this on everyone, believing that this kind of behavior led to nirvana. It’s fun while it lasts, then it turns to doo doo. Just like the Biden Administration.

May God deliver us.

He was my favorite character on “The Wire” and I loved that show. I know they hired actors/characters that didn’t just play the part... they had some rough times in their lives (urban upbringing, gang affiliation etc). RIP....
