That is crazy. What a great Journalists. What could be that bad to kill yourself. Life is to short to do something so selfish. Sad News.

in your defense.. i don't think anyone (himself included) knew how the hell he lived to 67

I thought the report said he accidently shot himself. I didn't know it was suicide. What a waste.

My first sad day in a long time.

He was a purist in what he did, and what a talented and gifted man he was. He explored the unknowns in life and put it all down on paper in such a mind blowing manner. Be it politics or the hippie movement, he was there and a good representation of the time period.

RIP Mr. Thompson you will be missed by many of us. Thank you for the laughs and thank you for the words that will echo forever in the walls of my mind.
