At the risk of agreeing with a feminist, I have to say that she's right. Sheen has a history of violence against women (amongst many other crimes), and is accused of holding a knife to his wife's throat.

If you're going to campaign to have someone fired for calling a homosexual a "fagot", why wouldn't you be equally as outraged when a man is accused of felonious aggravated assault against a woman?

Of course, if Sheen was a conservative, he would have been canned before he made bail.

Charlie Sheen gets away with everything because it was part of his “bad boy” image anyway — same reason Kiefer Sutherland can headbutt a guy, or Russell Crowe can get in barfights without tarnishing their image.

So, when Sheen does something stupid ... people brush it off as expected behavior.

It’s like the old saying, DOG BITES MAN isn’t news, MAN BITES DOG is.

Tiger Woods was news because nobody knew what he was. Everybody knows Sheen is a lowlife. He even plays one on TV.

Charlie can’t go much lower, so nobody really cares what he does. He’ll probably end up in prison or dead in some nasty end. Meanwhile, people just observe his antics.

Because Brad/Anjie dominates their thoughts?

Why? He makes a ton of money for the network, and that’s all that counts.

I was all behind him when he was nailing cheerleader-themed hookers, two at a time.

However, I’ve found it necessary, at this time, to withdraw my support for his behavior.

A press release will follow shortly.

How about his car found at the bottom of a canyon? Drunk again and lucked out again. Sooner or later it’ll get him, and then I guess I’ll say how sorry I feel for his family...I’ll have a hard time being sincere though. He’s a complete ass!

Sheen is your typical LIBERAL.

And yet PEOPLE still PAY to see his moveies and watch shows he is in. What you need to do is STARVE HIM of INCOME. STOP seeing his movies. STOP watching any shows he is in. Totally IGNORE him. Ridicule him. Mock him. Treat him the way he SHOULD be treated for being such a disgusting human being.

“fagot”

Isn’t it spelled faggot? A fagot is a bundle of twigs, sticks, or branches bound together.

A fag or faggot is a homosexual.

A fag is slang for a cigarette in England.

Well, you’d think that being a committed alcoholic, drug abuser and wife beater would be enough (although it wasn’t for Robert Downey jr.), but add to that he’s a 9/11 Truther, with a whole monologue about “controlled implosions” and you’d think he’d find acting jobs hard to find instead of being the highest paid actor on network TV. Oh, well.

Sheen’s latest t-shirt — “I shot my girlfriend and all I got was my own sitcom.”
