Convicted Racist


n June 1986, a then-15-year-old Wahlberg and three friends chased after three black children while yelling "Kill the nigger, kill the nigger" and throwing rocks at them.[15] The next day, Wahlberg and the others followed a group of mostly black fourth graders (including one of the victims from the previous day) taking a field trip on a beach, yelled racial epithets, threw rocks at them, and "summoned other white males who joined" in the harassment.[15][16] In August 1986, civil action was filed against Wahlberg for violating the civil rights of his victims, and the case was settled the next month.[17][18][19]

Another racially-charged incident occurred in April 1988. The then 16-year old Wahlberg assaulted a middle-aged Vietnamese-American man on the street, calling him a "Vietnam fucking shit" and knocking him unconscious with a large wooden stick. Later the same day, Wahlberg attacked Johnny Trinh, another Vietnamese-American, punching him in the eye. When Wahlberg was arrested and returned to the scene of the first assault, he told police officers: "I'll tell you now that's the mother-fucker whose head I split open."[20] Later, Wahlberg would explain that he was on PCP at the time.[21] Investigators also noted that Wahlberg "made numerous unsolicited racial statements about 'gooks' and 'slant-eyed gooks'".[22][23] Wahlberg was charged with attempted murder, pleaded guilty to felony assault, and was sentenced to two years in jail, but served only forty-five days of his sentence.[22][24] Wahlberg believed he had left the second victim permanently blind in one eye, though Trinh later stated that he had lost his eye in the Vietnam War, while serving in the South Vietnamese Army, who were fighting alongside American troops.[25][19][22][23]

I seriously can't fathom how Hollywood continues to employ this racist trash....

Anything more recent? I'm not going to judge a man today based on what he did as a teen over 30 years ago....

I like Mark now, thanks for the story.

My penis can only get so erect! I'm now a huge fan of Mark after reading this, thanks :)

This information has been well known for years. He obviously reformed himself from his earlier years.

reply

Well, he's obviously reformed his public behavior, and image!

We know nothing about the real person, only what his publicist says about him.

#MarkWahlberg has committed some unthinkable crimes, so let's get into it.

Who gives a shit what he did at age 16? He's 51 now. Move on.

I used to think to myself that Mark was a random incident away from Hindenburg levels of career disaster. It's been decades since then. I think he's earned the benefit of the doubt, even though such an occurrence would surprise but not shock me. Find something better and new to talk about, there's plenty.

I'm glad I'm not judged today by the misguided ideas I had as a 15 year old idiot.

Amen!

I assume you were a saint growing up yourself....


Probably not.
