Gene Honda Civic Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 The hunter is claiming that he was shot at first, and called racist names... http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6551094/ so he's using the "artest" defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted November 24, 2004 Author Share Posted November 24, 2004 What is a Hmong? He is originally a military guy from Laos. He was chased out by the new government along with a bunch of people. I haven't found anything that really details exactly who the "Hmong" are, but it seems like they were a minority group that was presecuted by the new regime, as they had a huge exodus to the US. There are about 100,000 Hmong in WI and MN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
