He had the worst case of short man's complex ever, coupled with the crushing failure of passing on autism genes to his kids.

He makes $40k a year, and he spends his time busting people who make $40k a month, but can't even read. It's easy to justify a little supplemental income at that point, and it just spirals from there.

Vic's real problem was that he had no internalized sense of right and wrong, everything was just a mirror of what he thought other people wanted. Shane had the same issue, so when they started working together, it was two guys with no moral compass looking to another guy without a moral compass, and they "made each other worse than our individual selves".

Him murdering a cop in the first episode was completely out of character for how he acted for all seven fucking seasons. Probably one of the biggest fuckups in TV history as far as character/development.

Didnt Vic pick it up from the black cop who was essentially his mentor though?

He picked up the culture of corruption, and I'm sure some tricks of the trade, but it's no mistake that he ended up far worse than the norm for LAPD. His personality (and Shane's) was fundamentally different from someone like Lem or Danny when it came to needing to justify his actions, and why.

>His training officer from his uni days took a bit on the side, but told him to justify it he had to make a lot of arrests

>Once he got his detective's shield, he started planting evidence and cutting deals to make his arrest numbers sing

>When his patron Gilroy made chief, he basically had blank cheque to do whatever the fuck he wanted, as long as he maintained his stellar arrest record

> What said, he had no real sense of right and wrong, ie stealing money from dealers as long as he was locking them up, cheating on his wife constantly as long as he took care of kids, giving Shane shit not for banging underage chicks but for letting himself get spotted by the local thugs

To an extent, but when he saw that guy get fucked over by the city and lose everything, he lost any reservations he had and just started doing blantent gangster deals. He doesn't even give the slightest fuck about any of his cases, as long as he gets something out of it

he killed a rat

The shield was based on the real life rampart police scandal and vic was based on rafael perez who also inspired the portrayal of denzel washington in training day.

>Him murdering a cop in the first episode was completely out of character for how he acted for all seven fucking seasons
In what way? It really wasn't out of character at all.

Almost. Vic Mackey was actually based on David Mack, another CRASH officer who Perez was hesitant to testify against. He ended up getting caught up in a bank robbery, in a situation resembling the Money Train.

>PREVIOUSLY ON THE SHIELD.. SUCK IT!

Lmao what is this

What did you guys think about Lem?

A lonely guy who let his need for some kind of family get him involved, and kept him involved, with people that ultimately ruined his life.

When he's in jail, we hear that his family is basically not going to help, so it's "the guys". Lem knew what they were, wanted no part of it, but he can't walk away from the only real acceptance and camaraderie he has.

He was a crook that thought he was a cop.

He did nothing wrong

He almost made it out too.
