Class With The Most Stun-Breaks?

Alright, so he's the deal: I hate nothing more than being stunned.
Currently I'm playing a shaman, and as most of you know (other than the faction trinket) there's not a thing in the world I can do about stuns when they happen. So, I've made a decision, I want to play whatever class that has the most ways to deal with stuns. Be it shielding, stun-breakers outright, or whatever... I don't care what roll they play in groups. I just want to be able to avoid, or survive, stuns.
So, the point of this post (other than the slight complaint about shaman being useless against stuns) is to ask what class deals with stuns the best. So, what do you ladies and gentlemen reccomend?

Probably paladins... but then again... they have everything..
but, HoF, bubbles, a couple of their own stuns, trinket, and if they're a human, a racial trinket.
Yeah.
Paladins are tough cookies. Plus crazy burst >.>

To strictly answer your question...
Retadins: 1 stun-remover when talented (
Divine Purpose
). I'm not sure if it effects yourself, though.
Mages: 1 stun-remover (
Blink
)
Death Knights: 1 stun-remover (
Icebound Fortitude
)
There may be more, I dunno.

Alright, top two are human Reta-din with four and a human mage with 2... I might have to roll a mage, so many paladins.

*Shrug* I just searched for all the spells that had the word "Stun" in them and took the ones that looked like they removed stuns.
Guess that isn't the best way to go about it, huh. XD

Every Man for Himself shares a cooldown with faction trinket I believe
Yes, it does. Ret paladins have 3, being trinket (Every Man for Himself is still referred to generally as 'trinketing' anyway), talented Hand of Freedom, and their Bubble.
Prot and Holy paladins only have two - trinket and bubble.

Great tool for PvP
I agree about WotF being great for PvP, but I haven't seen as many warlocks recently. :)
WotF also doesn't remove stuns. :(
So all in all I've seen 2 class removals in each of 2 classes(Pali and Mage) and 1 prevention in DKs.
Since all 3 of those classes can be Human, you wont need to carry a trinket(Human Racial is on same CD).
Palis with (Talented) Hand of Freedom and Bubbling.
Mage with Blink and Iceblock
DK with Icebound Fortitude
Because Mages are more freedom with specs and dont have to talent for the second stun removal, I'm inclinded to recommend a Mage.

Also mages can prevent stuns by kiting enemy, while paladins are melee.

You'd be surprised how many people with good arena gear can't figure out how to handle getting judged before I run away, slightly faster than them.
Also some healer paladins do get the HoF stun removal if they go 30ish/0/30ish. Specs along those lines aren't really seen in really top-end arena teams anymore (people go into prot slightly instead of halfway through ret) but are still very viable for PvP, especially battleground PvP, when having three seperate stun removals isn't close to enough for healers.

Warriors can also dispel Paladin bubbles now with a ranged attack with a 'cast' time. Not sure which warrior attack it is, though.

A human shadow priest would also have 2 with Every Man and Dispersion. They would also have talented Fade which would remove movement imparing effects, though not stuns.
