Hunter Thompson was working on WTC collapse story before mysterious sudden death, warned he'd be 'suicided'

Total 9-11 Info / Prison Planet | March 2, 2005

Thompson shot self while talking with wife

Hunter S. Thompson
Toronto Globe and Mail | February 26, 2005:

Paul William Roberts in his Globe and mail article of Saturday, February 26, 2005 wrote the following:

Hunter telephoned me on Feb. 19, the night before his death. He sounded scared. It wasn't always easy to understand what he said, particularly over the phone, he mumbled, yet when there was something he really wanted you to understand, you did. He'd been working on a story about the World Trade Center attacks and had stumbled across what he felt was hard evidence showing the towers had been brought down not by the airplanes that flew into them but by explosive charges set off in their foundations. Now he thought someone was out to stop him publishing it: "They're gonna make it look like suicide," he said. "I know how these bastards think . . ."

Hunter S. Thompson ... was indeed working on such a story.

Now check out this February 25 Associated Press story about Thompson's death. Sounds a lot like a professional hit with a silencer:

"I was on the phone with him, he set the receiver down and he did it. I heard the clicking of the gun," Anita Thompson told the Aspen Daily News in Friday's editions.

She said her husband had asked her to come home from a health club so they could work on his weekly ESPN column...

Thompson said she heard a loud, muffled noise, but didn't know what had happened. "I was waiting for him to get back on the phone," she said. (Her account to Rocky Mountain News reporter Jeff Kass is slightly different: "I did not hear any bang," she told Kass. She added that Thompson's son, who was in the house at the time, believed that a book had fallen when he heard the shot, according to Kass' report.)

Mack White sums up the questions well:
Thompson's family says he was not depressed, nor was he in enough to pain to kill himself. In fact, by all reports, he was quite happy. He was talking on the phone to his wife, getting ready to work on his column, when he decided it would be wise to kill himself, so that he could go out (we are told) while "still at the top of his form," even though this would mean not finishing his column or his expose on 9/11 (potentially the most important thing he would ever write) (?)...

RELATED: Hunter S. Thompson Suicide Story Changes

This account says Thompson killed himself while sitting in a chair on his typewriter and yet the original account tells us that Thompson shot himself while talking to his wife on the phone in the kitchen. Why has the story changed andwhat is the significance of the word typed on the paper in light of the fact that Thompson said he would be 'suicided' before being able to release a major story on explosives bringing down the twin towers?

This story is a bit of satire taken from the "Gonzo Journalist's" habit of writing about fictional telephone calls from people he was writing a story about.

Yes. Do you think he or anyone would do that while talking to their wife on the phone?

Hunter is a smart enough guy that someone trustworthy is holding that piece and will publish it soon, I hope. I have always suspected, as many other people do, that something was not kosher in that whole deal. Stinky!

Hahaha, you 9/11 conspiracy kooks never give up with this crap no matter how many times you're disproven. Hunter Thompson most likely committed suicide (by the way, pretty much 90% of the family members of people who commit suicide say they have no idea why the person did it, it was unexpected, etc.). But let's say he was murdered - he is just one of many people who has made up 9/11 conspiracies, and he's far from being the most popular, so if he was murdered it probably had nothing to do with this particular incident.

Those who aren't familiar with this guy, he's been a loser pretty much his whole life. He's a self-proclaimed anarchist. In 1972 when running against Richard Nixon, he lost 49 states to him. He constantly referred to America as "this f----- up country." He was quoted as saying "Only a fool or a sucker would vote for a dangerous loser like Bush" and was a proud Kerry supporter.

This is a very negative man who had more enemies than friends. A 9/11 conspiracy was to be expected from a clown like this who had such an obvious hated from our President and cheered anyone who opposed him. I'm sure his death had nothing to do with any 9/11 stories - he just wasn't that important.

Good riddance. One less un-American loser to worry about.

Just because someone has different ideas than you does not make them a kook. I'm glad you realize that there are many people involved in the 9/11 conspiracy. The investigation in to this horror is not going away. The 9/11 Commission was a sham. It is way past time for a real investigation.

Those who aren't familiar with this guy, he's been a loser pretty much his whole life. He's a self-proclaimed anarchist. In 1972 when running against Richard Nixon, he lost 49 states to him. He constantly referred to America as "this f----- up country." He was quoted as saying "Only a fool or a sucker would vote for a dangerous loser like Bush" and was a proud Kerry supporter. It is only your opinion that he was a loser. There might be someone that thinks you are a loser, but then that is only their opinion. I guess because you don't want to be labeled as one of those that voted for the loser......you have to resort to calling names too.

This is a very negative man who had more enemies than friends. A 9/11 conspiracy was to be expected from a clown like this who had such an obvious hated from our President and cheered anyone who opposed him. I'm sure his death had nothing to do with any 9/11 stories - he just wasn't that important. Time for you to wake up Indy. At minimum half of the USA think Bush is a loser and is leading our country to destruction.

Good riddance. I thought better of you than this comment of yours. Very hateful. One less un-American loser to worry about. So because someone doesn't like what is going on in America, that makes them Un-American or a loser? That is Un-American thinking on your part.

It's easy to make up conspiracies. All you have to do is pick a subject that not everyone knows about or would understand if they DID have all the details, throw a controversial figure in the middle, and wala, instant conspiracy soup.

Anyone who disagrees ... well, they're part of the conspiracy! Anyone who proves you wrong... they're part of the coverup!

This guy was a loser and you know it. Who the hell loses 49 states? Hahahaha!

I'm not following your logic ... there is no conspiracy behind anything I've said about the Anunnaki.

I'm just following your thinking. You think the other side of the story of 9/11 is a conspiracy. I'm sure someone thing your Annunaki is a conspiracy.

Hunter Thompson loved America, He didn't like some people running the country. I wish fifteen year olds who saw Fear and Loathing in LV would stop acting like they know what Thompson was about. It's insulting to him and to people who actually know what he stood for. Get Lives Children!

Did any of you know he was almost elected sheriff in the county he lived in in Colorado? Do any of you know what he called his compound? Who here thinks Laslo was real? These questions will seperate the Thompson "groupies" from the people who understood him.

And normally I like groupies, but in this case, I'm being negative.

Indy 4, have you read anything at all about the things that happened around 9/11 outside of what you saw in People magazine or some other piece of fluff? The Norad issues? What was at the base of the tower? The spook who was unloading airline stock on 9/10? The Muhammad Atta/Pervez Musharif/George Tenant connection? Flying the Bin Laden family out of the country the day after without any kind of debfriefing under presidentil order? there was all kinds of stinkies around this thing, and the the front men give us is bull*hit non-answers when questioned. I feel sorry for you.

Read http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/_/id/6562575?rnd=1099009920793&has-player=true ,
Thompson's coverage of the first 2004 Bush / Kerry debate. Hillarious, if he was assasinated this could be the reason.

I think that essay hits you like a bucket of cold water in the face. You can't help but be amazed Bush had any chance of winning.

OK, Hey why don't you guys who though HST was anti-American should read the article from the Rolling Stone mag that Broom Hillary posted on this board. And I never remember him referring to himself as an anarchist, I think that's what NIXON called him. get your facts straight.

I don't have anything to say about the death of Mr. Hunter. However, I do have a thought on the topic of his supposed essay.

According to this tread, he is suppoesed to have claimed that the reason the towers fell was because of charges set off in the basement. From the numberless video and photographic images that I have seen, including watching thetowers fall on 9/11, I conclude that someone is leading some of you up an alley and may want to sell you a bridge.

Having worked with exposives while in the service, not to mention the hours of TV speacial effects, I can tell you that an explosion from the basement, or even from the first few stories of a building would have resulted in the building collasping from the ground up, not from the top down. Look at the images for yourselves, and you will see that what happened is that the buildings collapsed from the top down.

Fourty-nine states, folks. Is it even necessary to say anything more about this man's credibility? When running against Richard Friggin Nixon of all people, Thompson lost 49 out of 50 states.

Just goes to show you what Americans think of him and his views. Loser in life, loser in death.

The charges were preset before 9/11 happened, but not in the basement, in the upper floors.

Actually, your logic is worse than that of many of the 'conspiracy nuts' you denigrate. You seem to have a viceral, almost phobic, response to those who are dubious of the 'official view' of things.

Do you actually believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman in the JFK assassination? Do you believe the government never covers up anything? Do you believe Allende actually wasn't assassinated by the CIA? Do you believe Diem wasn't killed by the CIA? Ect....

Personally, I find it highly unlikely behavior for someone to commit suicide during a telephone conversation in which he is animated about working on a project...

Hunter S. Thompson was definitely eccentric as hell, but that doesn't make him a 'loser'. As a matter of fact, it made him an icon in the field of journalism.

Compared to him, you're a loser.

There's a big difference between taking out a pill-popping wack job of a President who almost took us to nuclear war vs. taking out a loser like Thompson. It never freaking happened ... this guy off'd himself, and it wouldn't surprise me if he did it for the sole purpose of making a political statement.

Besides, when do you need to compare me to someone to think I'm an idiot, Piggy?

I don't think anyone would kill themselves while talking on the phone to their wife.

Most suicides are done in private.

There ya go thinkin' again.

Most, but not all. No one can really predict how a suicide will go down. It varies per person.

I don't think anyone would kill themselves while talking on the phone to their wife.

Most suicides are done in private.

There ya go thinkin' again.

Most, but not all. No one can really predict how a suicide will go down. It varies per person.

That is why I said MOST.

Anyone who disagrees ... well, they're part of the conspiracy! Anyone who proves you wrong... they're part of the coverup!

This guy was a loser and you know it. Who the hell loses 49 states? Hahahaha!If we were to look at it that way, then I guess you made up all that stuff about the Anannaki.
Actually, your logic is worse than that of many of the 'conspiracy nuts' you denigrate. You seem to have a viceral, almost phobic, response to those who are dubious of the 'official view' of things.

Do you actually believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman in the JFK assassination? Do you believe the government never covers up anything? Do you believe Allende actually wasn't assassinated by the CIA? Do you believe Diem wasn't killed by the CIA? Ect....

Personally, I find it highly unlikely behavior for someone to commit suicide during a telephone conversation in which he is animated about working on a project...

Hunter S. Thompson was definitely eccentric as hell, but that doesn't make him a 'loser'. As a matter of fact, it made him an icon in the field of journalism.

Compared to him, you're a loser.
Are you addressing your posting to me? If so, you have not read any of my postings.
No, I was addressing Indy, LOL!

Heh, ok. So you're going to say that this guy wouldn't have killed himself on the phone, but a government gunman would? Hahaha! If he wanted to make it look like a suicide, the hitman would have waited until the guy was off the phone. Der der der der.

You're missing the point, Keepy, but that's nothing new for you. A hitman would not kill someone while they were talking on the phone.

Believe me, I know the point you are trying to make.

Since when do you know the mind of a hitman?

You look at this incident the way you look at Bush and his administration's evilness. It does NOT fit your framework, so it can't be correct. Everything that does not fit you toss out as a conspiracy. You're going to be very surprised one day, hope you'll be able to handle it.

Just think about it Keepy ... what Hitman would murder someone while they were on the phone? I mean jeeze, the hitman wouldn't know whether he was talking to someone across the country or across the street. He wouldn't have time to kill the guy, then set it up to look like a suicide before the person could come bursting in through the door.

Therefore, a killer who planned on making his murder look like a suicide would wait until the guy was off the phone so there would be no audible witnesses, no recorded time of death, and enough time to do what he needs to do to make it look like a suicide.

That isn't what happened here - Thompson killed himself. You're the one who is having trouble accepting reality, not me. You want so badly to believe there is a conspiracy because you think it would mean you were right about 9/11 that you'll overlook the simple fact that if it was a murder it wouldn't have happened the way it did.

Don't you think a hitman could have been "casing the joint"? Monitoring his moves? and phonecalls?

You can't change the facts about 9/11. The truth will come out.

If he was doing that, he wouldn't have killed the guy while he was still on the phone. Come on Keepy, use your head. Don't let your desire for this to be a conspiracy cloud your judgement - this guy wasn't killed by anyone but himself.

The reality is that neither I nor you know what happened.

I have NO desire for anything to be a conspriacy.

Sure you do. This is such an obvious suicide, but you want so badly for it to be a murder because it makes you right. Why can't you admit the guy killed himself?

And don't give me any of that crap about "he wouldn't" - you talk to pretty much anyone who knows someone who killed themselves and every time they'll tell you they had no idea, never saw it coming, etc.

The bottom line is that if this had been a hit, it wouldn't have taken place while he was on the phone.

Sorry to burst yo stupid bubble I4... I am not going to claim any expertise on "hits" but as a hunter I am expert. I have killed hundreds of things as I grew up in the Pacific NW and rule #1 is to take your BEST shot. If I was targeting a human or any other potentially moving subject I would wait until that person was preoccupied and standing still SUCH AS TALKING ON THE PHONE. The last thing you would want is for the target to move just as you are pulling the trigger. If the subject is on the telephone one would have a reasonable expectaion that they will be stationary until they hang up.

The worry about WHO is on the other line is of little concern because they could not know the circumstance in the location of the killing. Secondly when someone is talking on the phone their hearing is impaired and they are more unnaware of thier surroundings in general. In my estimation they would make a much easier target. That is why they open deer hunting season in the middle of the rut(mating) and why I was able to shoot a six point buck from THREE FEET away when I was twelve. I suppose considering the forensics it could be argued that the Buck deer could have committed suicide. He was close enough to the rifle.

That's the difference between me and you.

You want to be right....no matter what.

I want the truth....no matter what.

Let's have a REAL investigation of 9/11, not the sham that the 9/11 Commission produced.

OOOOO.... the mighty Indy has spoken...

Just what exactly is the difference between hitmen/women and hunters?

You REALLY do not know what you are talking about again as usual...

OK I'll let slip a personal experience albiet second hand of the nature of a professional "hitman". My dad has a long time friend who I know as well who was what the CIA called a "spook". His early jobs in that agency was in Viet Nam seeking and destroying local snipers and other killers of Americans in and around Saigon. He got quite good at it. In fact he was the only one of his group of ten to survive and come home.

We had talked a few times since returning stateside because I was considering joining his group and following in his footsteps. He told me in detail what would be expected and what I would be getting myself into. I do not know your experience but I'll take HIS word over yours in how "hitmen" operate.....thankyou.

That is not any proof of whether HTs demise was orchastrated but from my knowledge if a professional wants you dead ....you are gonna be pushing daiseys very soon.

According to this tread, he is suppoesed to have claimed that the reason the towers fell was because of charges set off in the basement. From the numberless video and photographic images that I have seen, including watching thetowers fall on 9/11, I conclude that someone is leading some of you up an alley and may want to sell you a bridge.

Having worked with exposives while in the service, not to mention the hours of TV speacial effects, I can tell you that an explosion from the basement, or even from the first few stories of a building would have resulted in the building collasping from the ground up, not from the top down. Look at the images for yourselves, and you will see that what happened is that the buildings collapsed from the top down.
The charges were preset before 9/11 happened, but not in the basement, in the upper floors.Did I miss something here. From what I read, hunter was reported to have said that the explosion took place in either the basement or the lower levels. If this is so, then I think that your streching to say that hunter was killed because of his statements, which as I tried to point out, clearly were contradictory to the evidence. If you are stating that you agreed with hunter yet disagree with what his staement clearly said, maybe you should post your evidence before these conspirators come for you.

Your premise would be that the shooter would have patiently waited, I assume in hiding, kept tabs on hunter, and then shot when the opportunity appeared. But the evidence does not support you. There did not appear to be a forced entry, nor was there a bullet hole in a window. In order for it to have happened, the shooter would have had to be inside the persons home, and thereby, possibly known to hunter. It is also unlikly that a shooter would have taken a chance that the hunters son would not have seen him, therefore requiring that he either leave the premisses very rapidly after the shot or also requiring that the son be shot as well. In the first case, in leaving quickly, there would have been very little time in which to clean up after the shooting (wiping fingerprints, making sure that no DNA evidence was left behind, planting a weapon on hunter, etc.). In the second case, the son said that he heard the shot and came downstairs soon afterwards, having mistaken the shot forsomething else. He was not shot.

Gaining entry?

Do you know how easy it is to pick a lock? It is actually faster than "on tv". With a little rehersal(buy a lock of same type and practice for 10 min)an experienced person can pick almost any door lock made in less than ten sec.

As far as fingerprints...gloves leather or surgical.

A hitman/woman wouldn't wait around all day in somebodys house or apt but would case the target for behavior patterns for a couple of days. When the subject "goes out for Starbucks or the paper or the deli or whatever" then go in and wait in a closet or a similar location in the home. You would also want to walk around a bit with no one in the dwelling to "hear your own footsteps" like squeaks in stairs etc.

AGAIN I have no evidence of a "hit" but from what little I know about it there is no evidense excluding one either.

As far as WHY he was killed, if that was the case, there could be meny reasons some he may have been aware of some possibly not...insurance?...revenge?...money?(loan/owed)
personal issues like jealousy...The government doesn't waste time or risk its people on domestic hits unless there are big stakes and it is usually only industrial spies trying to steal military secrets that are targeted.

Add one to the Bush body count: http://witewillo.homestead.com/files/bushbodycount.htm

Note page is an old mirror version, the original is now located at http://www.bushbodycount.com -- but I think the new version is weaker. It doesn't have links to supporting information .

If some of the links don't work, you can use the Internet Archive at http://www.archive.org . (Even with the archive, a lot can't be found now).

An odd thing -- The new Bush body count site went down for the 2004 election ! I'm not kidding, it was down from May 2004 through about December 2004. You can probably verify this by using the Internet Archive . The Archive will let you see the entire history of a site, so you can browse older versions. (And thus see the message that it was down in May 2004, and that this message did not change until after the election was over.)

In an environment like the one reported you would hear that gunshot a mile away no matter if it was in his mouth or not. Even if there was no one in the house the only way that the noise wouldn't be heard for at least half a mile would be if it occured in a well insulated basement. there could be exceptions to this logic like a well insulated log house(more than a foot thick) with double insulated storm windows etc.. but a "normal" structure 4-6 inch walls would barely muffle the sound which would be not to unlike a cherry bomb exploding.

Thompson shot self while talking with wife

History shows that if a person dies and is Liberal, its a suicide, if the person that is Dead is a Conservative, they were most likely murdered by a Liberal

Whoever called him an un-American loser, you know nothing.

He was proud of his heritage and often photographed with an American flag draped over his shoulders. However, as a proud American, he was unwilling to sit back and let his country turn into what it has without a fight. So he's a damn site more of an American than the fools who vote in tossers like Bush and sit back as society crumbles.

There is significant evidence suggesting the 9/11 attacks were not what they seemed. It's far from conclusive, but it is, at the very, very least, highly indicative that something else was going on.

The kind of people who poo-poo the theory are the kind of people who just can't accept that it's a possibility. You could hold out the documents in front of them and say "take them, read them, you'll see" and rather than read them they'd just refuse. Small-minded.

Thompson was one of the most important, innovative and influencial writers of the 20th century, and there is no denying that. His work has a profound impact on both journalism and the world of publishing.

And there are inconsistencies surrounded his death. Let the naybobs' tounges waggle with scepticism. They're just living in a tiny World, and we should pity them.

His style will live on, as wiill his message; be who you are today, for tomorrow you may be another, or not, who knows .

Hunter is THE man ! ! Check back in 25 years for a tally of literary presentations and a tally of various fraternal and societal inductions. These may serve to be an indication of the acceptance of a writer's body of work by both his peers and his public. Let us not dismantle his product, while we assainate his character. He leaves us much, and we should say "Thank You, we wished you had chosen to live different, to be well, and to be prolific." But Alas, we move on with your past work, and you move on not at all. It is sad. We will think of you often, as it should be. And we will miss sharing any new material, even if through a fog, in a dark forest, or in another dimension. It is gone, because you are gone, and therefore we are cast adrift. Fare Thee Well Hunter, and Godspeed!

Hunter will be missed by those who disliked his work as well as those who cherished it! The fact is that his body of work is now finite, as is Hunter. Let us not assainate his work in the process of dimantling his character.

He was insightful, enigmatic, and bold. These are qualities that we may aspire to, or not. But Hunter did, and we loved it. He ceases to add to the wondeful body of work he created during his life. Only we can add comment to it! May that comment be both truthful and profound. May he rest in peace as he digests our works. [usa]

California, Labor Day weekend…early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy levis roll out from damp garages, all-night diners and cast-off one-night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo, and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur…The Menace is loose again, the Hell’s Angels
This was the first paragraph I ever read written by Hunter Thompson. It's from his classic
account of the California biker subculture: Hells Angels: The Strange and Terrible Saga of the Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs. I was a twelve year old kid living in St .Louis Missouri in 1967 when my father's contraband copy of the book got into my hands, during one of my routine checks of the bottom drawer of his desk for lurid paperbacks or banned books like Lady Chatterly's Lover or the Tropic of Cancer.

Hell's Angel's was the right book, at the right time and it was a harbinger of the hot-house climate of fear and loathing in the Nixon years. Hunter was an agent provocateur with a fanatical mission to burn hell down to the ground. Hunter was among those brave souls who dared to tempt fate by challenging the very reality of reality, itself.

I read Hell's Angels straight though in 8 hours, resorting to finishing it with a flashlight underneath the covers of my bed. I even did a book report on it which earned the everlasting hatred of a 4' 2" dwarf nun named Sister Benedict, who was my English teacher.

Hunter's use of the language was terse, evocative, dark and ominous. His prose thundered from the page of the book straight to your central nervous system like a jolt of electricity. Hunter's sinister world was nothing like I'd ever encountered at age 12 and nothing I've ever encountered since. For the first time in my life, I read a book that made me feel alive.

I've never laughed harder reading a book than Thompson's Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail which exposed politicians for the preening, over-indulged, shallow geeks they really are.

Thompson's final written word was a note titled Football Season Is Over:
No more games. No more bombs. No more walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67 That is 17 years beyond 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy---No fun for anybody. 67 You are getting greedy. Act your old age. Relax---This won't hurt.
Given the uniquely Hunteresque trademark style of writting, it's likely that Football Season Is Over was a suicide note.

I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours

Right, since Thompson was such a politically important and respected figure in America that the government just had to kill him to eliminate the danger he posed to the Bush administration (you are free to turn off your sarcasm detectors now)

No one knows what goes on in the minds of the suicidal. People who are depressed often portray a happy go lucky exterior to compensate for the pain inside, which mistakenly leads others to think they're happy. I know because there were times in my life when I was seriously depressed (and sometimes considered suicide) but at exact same time appeared the life of the party to my friends.
