I'm not defending him.
However, unless you lived in Southie/Dorchester, you have no idea how bad these places are. I can tell you right now , there is not a white guy on here who could last in Dorchester without being able to handle yourself mentally and physically. Google the violent crime rate for Dorchester, Roxbury and Mattapan , (the two neighboring towns.)
Also, a while back Valentino was writing about this altercation with Wahlberg, saying how he beat up or would have beat up one of his bodyguards. This confirmed to me Valentino is a lying troll. I know the bodyguard, and hes a legit athlete, big and strong as fuck, that also knows how to fight...Google "Bo Cleary"...
