Hunter S Thompson was murdered
    #5637219 - 05/16/06 12:20 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

The Murder Of Hunter S. Thompson

Webb, a Pullitzer prize winning journalist, exposed CIA drug trafficking operations in a series of books and reports for the San Jose Mercury News.

Credible sources who were close to Gary Webb have stated that he was receiving death threats, being regularly followed, and that he was concerned about strange individuals who were seen on multiple occasions breaking into and leaving his house before his apparent 'suicide' on Friday December 10th 2004.

That article gives links to the sources they used.

"Silversoul said:

and this kind of shit is why.

That article gives links to the sources they used.

one costs money and the other gives a 404.

what's the evidence here really?

he didn't "seem" like he was in a suicidal mood?

come on. he was a suicidal personality his entire life.

it didn't "sound" like a gunshot over the phone?

i'm no expert on acoustics and telephone hardware, but i can't imagine that telephone receivers are engineered to accurately transmit the sound of something like a gunshot.

he'd warned that he might be offed by government agents who'd make it look like a suicide?

if that's even true, it would be just his style, especially if he was considering killing himself.

come on. don't waste your time reading the bilge over at prison planet. if you're going to, please don't waste our time by posting it here.

i love how people like to trash prisonplanet and infowars, ignorant of the fact that both of those websites base their content on articles put out by other news outlets, such as AP and others.

prisonplanet has a way of using external sources in two ways:

1. making ludicrous inferences not implied by the original sources or evidence.
2. condensing disparate sources of bullshit into one convenient, dense location.

they do not bother to check facts, critically examine evidence, or do any real journalism. if it supports their view of the world, they'll print it.

prison planet and infowars have both been proven to be sites set up by Iran and North Korea. Proof here: http://www.prisonwarsproof.com
The link works for me, but they might block it for some people.
