Frank was LIVID when he learned there were human beings in that can. He even took precautions later on to ensure that didn't happen again (telling Horse to bang on the can to make sure no human beings were inside). Then he was even going to cooperate with the cops but decided to hear out the Greeks instead just to save Ziggy.
Should've made it so Frank throws up in the sink, stares remorsefully at himself in the mirror, then turns around and there's Bunk staring at him, still smoking that cigar lol
@@jesperhedenqvist922 ah. Seemed like you were saying you only care about the source. As if you'd drink the freshest spring water from a shit covered glass or some crazy shit.
Willem DaFuckedUp when you have a whole group of people relying on you to ensure they are able to keep their families fed, and the only way you can accomplish that is to break laws, that can be a hard choice!! The only other thing he could have done is play by the rules and watch his union die a slow death!!
@Willem DaFuckedUp its easy to say that in the comments section of youtube but when you're actually responsible for people's livelihoods its a lil different.
Willem DaFuckedUp If he’s in charge of a union and part of his job is to make sure the guys in the union have work, how is he not responsible for their livelihood? It’s part of his job. If he sits on his ass they have no work, if he goes out and hustles, they have work. It’s pretty simple.
I'm not trying to sound judgemental or whatever because I'm just an idiot so here It go: Frank is obviously a good guy and he is having a Bad time, but he is also an idiot, he dances with criminals in a desperated atent to provide for his family and I understand, however he should had known that when dealing with criminals tthings are bound to get out of control.
The only thing your missing in your analysis is there is no where else for him to really provide for his family. The point of the show was to show the crumbling elements of our city in this postmodern, neoliberal, global capitalism, small government society that has made it to where opportunity to find a good paying, union job that you can support a family like you could in the 50s, 60s, and early 70s is gone. Specially with Frank, Ronald Reagan killed unions and the Clinton outsourced our factory jobs taking most of the jobs overseas to 3rd world counties that pays their employees dirt wages because they don’t have minimum wage laws like we do. It is the story of industrial American going to shit. The American Dream is no more. That’s from the creator himself. Frank is good man and would be different if he lived in a society that had well paying jobs and a government that worked for workers. He wouldn’t have gone down the path with criminals. So what you are missing is the institutional structural analysis to his situation that makes him do these bad things even though he has a good heart.
Ricky Ray While he was not directly involved in the death of the women, he allowed/profited off illegal activity that was under his watch. He made a deal with organized crime and that deal ultimately led to human trafficking and death while he was head of the union/dock workers.
@@slydEvil35 Not really, at this point of the story Frank wasn't involved with illegal trafficking (this will change once he will try to strike a deal with the Greeks). The only illegal activities he knew of were about union workers stealing from the containers, and he tried to put a stop to that too.
@@TobyHonest420 That is not entirely true. While Frank was not aware of the illegal trafficking, he did know and was paid by the Greeks to have cargo disappear off the stacks so things could be smuggled in. He did not know or want to know what they were actually smuggling.
@@timj684 @Tim J No, that was Nick and other workers. Frank accepts to work with the Greeks only when he starts needing funds for the docks, later on in the series (they get introduced in this scene by Nick, who at the time knew Sergei and maybe Spiros, I don't remember ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NnMQhHo6Dm8.html). Also I'm not sure he knew the Greeks were dealing in human trafficking, but I should rewatch that season again. From what I remember, he was okay only with drug smuggling, but I might be wrong.
@@TobyHonest420 you should definitely rewatch because it was Frank who told Nick to get a number from The Greeks the very first time we see any smuggling. Frank was involved with the Greeks before the season even began
Man, the thing about people is they are, for the most part, too simple. You show them the best season on season number 2 and all they can focus on is how it isn't the same. No class, no taste. Protestants most like!
This scene is so damn symbolic of America today. The silent majority, well the rapidly becoming silent minority. The working class, just takes it with little to no resolve. This is their bar, their turf, their collective of people. How can two city detectives walk into and act like they own the joint? Cause Johnny Six Pack just wants to be left alone. I was raised in bars like this, and they talk some mass shit, but when push comes to shove, they just endure and take it. Just like the working class in America today keep fucking taking it. Our politicians are bought and paid for, our media is propaganda, and I believe our country is owned by China and is systemically being destroyed. I recently saw a MSNBC News clip where they are actually discussing separating kids whose parents supported Trump and putting them into re-education classes. I dont give two shits if you despise Trump and are a lifelong Democrat, how can any American support that? However, just like this scene shows, people will, they will swallow and eat more shit.
I’m sorry but I’m having a hard time believing that separating kids from trump supporting parents thing...that’s the type of claim that requires some sort of evidence a link to a video or an article or even just gimme a phrase to search in google that will lead me straight to what you’re talking about but until then I just have to believe you’re talking out your ass to rile up people who already think that way...and do forgive me I don’t mean to come off as confrontational but that’s a hell of a statement to make that only continues the division and anger in our country
And to follow up on my first comment sure I could see a news report saying they are considering teaching kids in school certain things that are anti-trump or whatever but they way what you said read was they’re going to take kids away from their parents and put them in camps type shit which feels a little asinine
