The Hmmong tribespeople had about 1/10th of their population obliterated by the Communists after the US withdrew. They were loyal American allies. I think many took refugee in the United States. The NYT had an article a while back that claimed they voted democratic. I don't believe it.
Believe it. They're considered a very reliable Democratic bloc here and the few who've made it to elected office are all from the far left wing of the Democratic party. Ironic, huh?
The children of the immigrants also seem to have taken over most of the urban retail drug trade, much to the annoyance of our indigenous African-American population.

They didn't help us, we helped them. They do vote democrat and have the highest welfare recipient rate in the country. Unassimilated Hmongs are not like Americans. "Asian" poaching and gang activity is mainly Hmongs. Some among them do such things as round up outdoor pets and stray dogs and cats and eat them. I do not want any more waves of Hmongs coming to California, unless they are Christianized and accept American laws and social norms.
