An interesting detail in this morning's St. Paul Pioneer Press: Vang was wearing a reversable hunting jacket. He admits to taking the jacket off and reversing it, so that it was camo side out and blaze orange in, before ambushing the last two people who were riding up on their ATVs.

Doesn't sound like the actions of a scared and disoriented victim of a gang of racist rednecks to me.

Wisconsin does not have the death penalty, but I would not put ten bucks on the odds of this guy surviving 48 hours in the general prison population. At least, not in Wisconsin. They'll probably have to transfer him to some other state -- which is what they did with Dahmer, and he didn't live long, either.

If I remember it correctly, the punchline of the joke that fits this situation is "death by Bunga-Bunga!"

Dahmer was killed in Columbia Correctional which is in Wisconsin, he was never transfered out. The gangbanger who killed him (and paid well for it) was transfered to Fed. afterwards because he already had life and nothing to lose in the WI system (which is why he had no quams about killing Dahmer)

Nope. Sounds more like someone who knew exactly what he was about to do, and was planning on evading/escaping when he was done.
