Fools think The Wire is a documentary.
The Wire is my favorite TV series of all.
I wondered back when it first aired that if a city like Baltimore were really that corrupted what future America had.

It's still out, cops still useless. Cop don't keep people safe, at best they make people "feel" safe.
Traffic light is out at Charles and 33rd St, so one might expect the new JHU police out there to make sure students can get across the street safely, but of course, that's not the case. Lazy cops abound.

Living car-free in Baltimore, by choice or necessity, as told by those who do it
