[history]
The deer hunter accused of killing six hunters and wounding two others in the woods of northern Wisconsin is believed to have resided in the Toledo area as a youth and attended Jones Junior High School.
Chai Vang, 36, of St. Paul, is listed as a student at the South Toledo school during the 1982-1983 school year, according to Toledo Public School documents.
Willie Braggs, a social studies teacher at Jones, said he remembers Mr. Vang as a student. "He was in my class in 1982 and he seemed like a pretty good student," Mr. Braggs said. "It was a real shock [to hear of the shootings]."
A wave of Laotian refugees was brought to the Toledo area in 1979 and the early 1980s. They were resettled here with the help of church groups and other local sponsors. It was not clear yesterday when Mr. Vang's family came to Toledo or when they left.
By 1994, only about 35 Hmong families remained in the area, largely because many families moved to other cities where there were more jobs available and larger concentrations of others in their ethnic group.
About 24,000 Hmong live in St. Paul.

I have. Repeatedly. Yes. They are not to blame. 100% not to blame.
They were doing nothing wrong or even unwise given the level of knowledge that they had.

No thank you. I believe we can do without your help.
BTW, How many people were murdered in your city in the past year? I wager it was more then six. Maybe we should come there and teach you how to behave.

There is no proof that they actually said that. The survivor says that they didn't. But you want them to be bad people. Curious.
Why is that do you think?

Welcome. And thank you.
We all say (or rather type) things that we shouldn't on occasion.
