They recently reached several milestones, including opening a museum celebrating Hmong heritage and getting their first council member elected....The Hmong community in Fresno still runs in a traditionally tribal manner, with clans comprised of 28 different families that are identified by their last names...
Assimilation fail.

Yup,that's what I was thinking. IIRC the Hmong people helped us in Vietnam. That certainly would make them worthy candidates for US residency. But apart from Vietnam all I know about them is what I learned in Grand Torino....a *very* good film.

She was great...funny...truly American.

I can dig some things about those Hmong, for sure. :-)

Knew there would be a Gran Torino reference before I got very far. Free Republic never disappoints! ;-)

Those Hmong’s do that. Happened in Tulsa once.
Don’t get the Hmong’s pissed off, they’ll come shoot you.

They are kind of like Montagnards. They don’t really have a country and come from the mountains between Vietnam and Laos. They are hillbillies.
Here in CA, they are very family oriented and resourceful. They are extremely independent and don’t like authority, which is why they weren’t down with the commies.
They keep the old ways, knives, cooking implements, brooms and things that they brought over. Witchcraft stuff, poaching and polygamy are normal for them. They are super friendly and drink a lot.
I knew all this before I saw that movie but it was a very real portrayal.

Eastwood recruited real Hmong kids to co-star with him. Neither one of them had ever acted before.
Like almost every other ethnic group which has immigrated here they have their problems with youth gangs.
