Sean Penn is an idiot.

Hello, esmith. This is not something easy to say, but here it goes. Actually try to debate, ok? This is a website for debating, not asking people did you know? Anyways, you said: "Did you know that Penn is a high school dropout? Did you also know that he was married to Madonna? Did u know that he abused her and was charged with domestic assult? Who cares how many movies he has been in? Does that make him more of a man? He Beat his wife!" High school dropout and wife-beater means nothing in terms of acting. He is an actor, and an actor only.
