Charlie Sheen Launches Violent Torpedo of Charity for Storm Victims

Troubled actor takes time out from the craziness to help people even less fortunate than himself

One terrifyingly powerful force of nature has decide to combat another.

Charlie Sheen has taken time out of his busy schedule on the "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option" tour to help out the victims of the devastating storms that tore through the South last week.

The embattled, 45-year-old actor stepped in after visiting the ravaged area.

"I'm in Tuscaloosa. It's beyond words," Sheen tweeted on Monday. "Info coming soon on how you can all help."

True to his word, Sheen soon launched the Torpedos Against Tornados web site, where fans can make tax-deductible donations to the storm victims.

Sheen has been in a particularly charitable mood lately; news broke on Monday that he was donating $20,000 to Bryan Stow, the San Francisco Giants fan who was savagely beaten in the parking lot of Dodgers Stadium in late March. The donation consisted of $9,000 in merchandise proceeds from Sheen's recent San Francisco show, plus $4,000 in audience donations, and an additional $7,000 donation from Sheen.
