I spent sometime in Baltimore Maryland in the past and I've watch this tv show and I have some complaints about this tv show also. This show isn't telling all the positive things that happen in Baltimore, Maryland. And it isn't showing the people that live in Baltimore Maryland also. For example, not all black people, etc. live in this part of Baltimore, Maryland also. Some of them are military families, Some of them are middle class families in this part of Maryland also. Not all black people, etc. are drug dealers or in gangs in Baltimore, Maryland during June 2002 when this tv show came out also. I think that the wire is overrated by some people that prejudice also. And the wire isn't a great tv series to me. And I don't think that the wire is telling or showing all the facts about how these illegal drugs really got into some cities such as Baltimore, Maryland in the past also. This tv show is bias towards some poor black communities on this planet also.
