A brazen shooting inside a Richmond, California churches got me to thinking about my favorite TV show ever, “The Wire.” If you haven’t heard the story, it’s unimaginable. Police are still looking for the men who stormed into a church Sunday and opened fire. Two teens were injured during the attack.
When I heard about it, I immediately thought about the episode of “The Wire,” when the Barksdale crew tried to kill Omar. He was taking his grandmother to church when gunmen opened fire and shot the hat off his grandmother’s head.
Omar was stunned, telling his crew:
“…For as long as I been grown, once a month I been with her on a church Sunday, telling myself ain’t no need to worry, ’cause ain’t nobody in this city that lowdown to disrespect a Sunday morning!”
