Do you folks even KNOW who Hunter S. Thompson was? WTF?

Although I do not advocate the combination of alcohol and firearms, if I would have had a chance to spend a day at the range with HST, I would have JUMPED at the chance.

Passing that up would be like passing up a rocket launch with Werner Von Braun because he was a Nazi. Sometimes you just gotta overlook a mans little shortcomings for the opportunity to contact a fragment of their genius...

Thompson was one of the ONLY truthful journalists of the end of the 20th century, and perhaps the last REAL journalist in the history of English-language reporting...

HST was a patriot in the original sense of the word, a champion of TRUE freedom, and a tireless defender of the Bill of Rights, in print AND in life.
