Surrounded by a coterie of enablers and sycophants, and armed with lawyers that cost more per hour than most people make in an entire week of salary, actor Charlie Sheen's continued verbal assault against anyone who criticizes his methods of handling a work dispute continues.

On Monday (March 7) Charlie was seen wielding a machete on a rooftop as he swigged from what look to be a bottle of "Tiger's Blood."

Post the announcement that he was fired from "Two and a Half Men." Sheen invoked the famous quote of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. yelling, "Free at last ... free at last!"

After the rooftop event, Sheen was videotaped telling paparazzi that his attorney, Marty Singer, told him "to shut it."

Sheen then taped another episode of "Sheen's Korner," in which he swigged from a bottle as he lambasted people who make cell phones: "Phones were built by trolls."

In a statement issued to NBC’s Jeff Rossen, which aired Tuesday morning on TODAY, Sheen appears happy to be rid of a show he didn't care for, and for his recent termination, claiming, “Now I’m free.”

Sheen's twin sons were removed from his custody back on March 1 after his ex wife Brooke Mueller was granted a temporary restraining order against him by the Los Angeles Superior Court.

Sheen was ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Mueller.

Despite the negative press, Sheen's Twitter account has blossomed, and as of this morning, Sheen had 2,227,198 followers since he opened the account March 1.
