This coming from Martin Sheen, a former California mayor who "embraced" the homeless, yet had them arrested when they camped out on the grounds of his mansion? LOLOLOL :roll:

No offense to anyone... but Sheen should have thought about his career before he ran that pie hole of his. NBC should be worried.

because of any patriotic reason, they are worried about any possible backlash that could cost them money which is the bottom line here.
