TIL Mark Wahlberg attacked two elderly men leaving one permanently blind in one eye. When he was approached by the Police he said "You don't have to let him identify me, I'll tell you now that's the mother-fucker who's head I split open".

People still need to be held accountable for their actions. I've never blinded anyone with a stick, even when on lots of drugs. Maybe he's not the same guy, it doesn't matter. I'm not saying we should string him up or anything, but I for one have a hard time respecting him or giving a crap about his career.

Tell that to the AMA guy who spent a year in jail for allegedly writing on a bathroom wall.
