Probably some of the Hmoungs are "nice" but maybe many appeared to be on our side in Vietnam because they liked hunting down Vietnamese anyhow.
Importing tribal people with all their cultural ways isn't a good practice.
That's already happened on other threads --- people claiming the guy was justified because he claimed the victims called him names and were racists. People say they once knew a Hmoung family which was hard-working so they just know every single Hmoung has to be good.
yep.
the Montangards and Chungs and Nungs (etc.)..
the lucky ones got out.
Here in Middle TN, we have a large Laotian community...most are ok and lean right but they have a serious gang problem....ditto the few Viets.
Primitive tribal mores bear consequences especially in a "modern" land.
I would ask why in the H are they importing tropical tribals to the Great White North....ditto the Somalis to Maine?
Viets to the Gulf Coast makes more sense....but that has not been w/o problems either.

Lutheran Social Services -- might know. They brought them.
what makes wisconsin cheese so good?.
Now there's a controversy as to who fired first. (In regards to the shootings last week.)
Haven't heard the survivors story at this point, but that could be moot if their testimony is needed as evidence.
Immigration should be done on an individual basis. If an individual is willing to leave his country, his tribe, his culture etc behind and wants to come here to be an American --- that's great but it's stupid for us to be importing entire tribes and villages --- keeping them together and their cultural ways intact. Assimilation is the only way immigration can work out right.
It sounds to me that the Hmongs will do a lot to get the stereotype of the successful studious Asians down to a pretty low level. These are just polygamous backward people who rely on many welfare programs to survive here. Certain individual Hmong might be okay --- but it would see they would have little interest in living in their tribal groups --- the tribal people should go home.
Please add me to the ping list. Thanks!
Shooting a human being in the back is the sign of a real coward. This guy shot these people ON PURPOSE.
Vang needs to be summarily executed for his criminal acts against man and God. His wanton murder of unarmed, defenseless people, his attempted escape, and the probabilty that he is a thrill-seeking serial killer, clearly call for immediate retribution. Had this happened in the Old West, Vang would now be lying in an unmarked grave in Boot Hill.
Ladysmith is occupied elsewhere today. I am tending to the ping list in her absence.
I have added you to the ping list.
Please add me to the list. Thanks.
will do
Smart of them; once you stir up a hornet's nest of snipers, you don't go looking for trouble.
Does it sound like 3 other Asian men might be implicated?
It would have been a federal crime IF it had happened on Federal land.
Had a case down this way a couple of years ago where a guy killed a gal who was going to testify against him in a rape trial and her baby.
It went Federal because she was killed in the state (read Federal) forest.
If he haden't been trespassing and had shot them, then it would be a different story.
