ASPEN, Colo. - Hunter S. Thompson, the acerbic counter-culture
author of books such as "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas," fatally
shot himself Sunday night at his Aspen-area home, his son said.
He was 67.
"Hunter prized his privacy and we ask that his friends and admirers
respect that privacy as well as that of his family," Juan Thompson
said in a statement released to the Aspen Daily News.
Pitkin County Sheriff Bob Braudis, a personal friend of Thompson,
confirmed the death to the News. Sheriff's officials did not return calls
to The Associated Press late Sunday.

"G.W. hired Iraqi Shiite Assassination squads to stalk and kill Hunter S.
Thompson, who according to sources, was writing a book entitled: "9-11: I
Did It My Way: The Hideous Bat Infested World of George Bush and Dick
Cheney."
"After the debacle of Fahrenheit 911, the Neo-Con team could not put up with
any more "unfortunate but absolutely unimpeachably true nonsense." according
to reports from homosexual escort service sources deeply imbedded in the
White House staff's ass.
