I remember getting into a fight with David Simon on twitter where he swore that his intended message with The Wire was that the problems with American policing can be solved by simply hiring "good cops" instead of "bad cops".
... There is literally no way to watch The Wire and get that message. The whole show is about how hard it is to do worthwhile police work even with the best intentions, and then every character is a piece of shit on top of it.
Only people you can really root for without reservation are the project kids.
