Charlie Sheen has compared the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk to the 1963 assassination of President John F Kennedy. "I think, for this generation, that's their JFK moment," the Two and a Half Men star opined during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored. "If that's where we've wound up, it cannot be where we stay. It's too surreal to process it, the unfairness of it. We can't keep having days like that moving forward." When Morgan asked about his first reaction to Kirk's death, Sheen shared that he thought initially about the grief that the social media star's family must have faced. "I first thought about his fatherless children, his wife instantly a widow," the actor said. "I didn't care about any of the politics, any of the social, cultural aspects, at first. I immediately thought just of the family dynamic and component, and the value of what was just ripped from all of them forever in a picosecond." Sheen was being interviewed on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast when the news broke that Kirk had been shot while speaking at Utah Valley University on 10 September. Kirk was rushed to a local hospital but ultimately died at age 31.
