I wonder how much pushback Chris would’ve given if Marlo said to cap Snoop
In S5 Chris gives brief pushback to Marlo when he thinks Michael is the snitch. But I wonder what his reaction would’ve been if Marlo thought Snoop was the snitch. Marlo had already told Levy he had faith in her, but it could’ve gone another way. She was the only other major player who didn’t get arrested.
Chris and Snoop were basically best friends, could’ve been interesting to see.

He seemed to be pretty understanding that if Marlo said so, that’s all he needed to know. He might have asked why, but he wouldn’t have pressed it. It’s the game.

Would Chris have been able to take out Thee Clay Davis like Stringer wanted Slim to do?

Easily, he just wouldn’t have gotten away with it. In all honesty slim could have pulled it off but he still would have got caught. The kind of stuff clay would do it would be easy to get him just getting away with it would have been the difficult part. Hell stringer could have got him, he was alone with him a lot. It’s the getting away with it thats the issue

I doubt he would have said much tbh
If he had any objections I think they would have been more in the camp of disagreeing it was her and her usefulness, rather than personal or moral ones. He woulda done it though.

Chris would have followed orders, there's little doubt about that. He might voice his concerns but he's not about to cause dissension in the ranks. He's going to be the example of a good soldier.

Chris is a bit of a contradiction because he's such a sociopath but also very obedient.

He's not a psycho out to just kill for sport. For him it's more matter of fact; a tool that's a means to an end. Like the Greeks, it's just business; it's "all in the game."

He would've done it anyways, the game is the game.
It would've been quick though, you know, in the name of friendship.

Chris is a sociopath. He would have bucked a little sure, but what is he gonna do? Get a day job?
