He truly was a genuine talent. We won't see another like him, the way he presented his own unique version of the truth.

[IzzySantino]

Very true my friend. Thanks for dropping by.

what a shame to have lost such a brave literary crusader. Watching this now in 2009 i can't help but wonder what he would think of our current state looking back on one of the darkest periods in American history. I feel that same sense of relief you get after waking from an intensely real and horrifying nightmare. Thank god i'm a fucking Canadian! and thank you for posting these videos sir, more people need to be watching these.

[IzzySantino]

You are very welcome my friend and thank you for stopping by.

[JMarkwell]

We need Hunter now more than ever.

@ruleof3 it was unique because he actually used the ability to understand the meaning behind the image. Be it the word or the symbol or the moment.

Holy shit.

@mcmaniac1000 I'm 31 also. That 2004 election was the death blow to any hope for rational thought in our upper government. Obama teased it back for a second, but now it is dead. Long live the observations of HST!

@pegrum he obviously was shot for this interview and all the things he had talked about here. anyway hes totally a traditional sort of laissez faire patriot kinda guy

[GreyAutumn]

@pegrum why? His stances on politics wasn't that far away from the tea party. He would probably hate Sarah Palin though but I think he would maybe support Ron Paul.. why not?

[Research0digo]

Thank you for this upload, I truly appreciate it. Where can we see/read your 911 Clique video/book, please? Thanks.

[mcmaniac1000]

Im 31 years old and I miss this guy!...his writing helped me make it through the 04 election. with him carlin and bill hicks gone, I feel more alone in the world then ever

Thank you Izzy Santino for putting this interview up. I had the privilege of meeting him in 1981 while I was a student at the University of Minnesota. I got a short interview with him and instead of what people's perception, I found him to be articulate and erudite. When he died five yeas ago, I was in true mourning for a couple of days, because his sentiments have often been mine for a very long time. The past here is truly prologue.

[pegrum]

what would he think of the tea party movement? i'd think he would shoot himself again

[SuperLost5]

Thank you posting this interview. He was killed trying protect our freedom of speech. He was one of the greatest spirits this world has ever know. His legacy lives on!
