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.
To: JonPreston
Well at least he died doing what he loved.

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.
