The dude that shot those folks in WI got his verdict today ... I haven't been following this case - what say ye from up thar??? :-|

HAYWARD, Wis. -- A jury on Friday convicted an immigrant truck driver of first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of six deer hunters during a confrontation over trespassing, rejecting his claims that he fired in self-defense after one hunter used racial slurs and another shot at him.

Chai Soua Vang, 36, faces mandatory life in prison. Wisconsin does not have a death penalty.

The two survivors of the shooting had testified the white hunters never shot at Vang before he opened fire after they confronted him on Nov. 21 about trespassing in a tree stand on private property in the isolated northwestern Wisconsin woods.

saw footage from the shooter's turn on the witness stand, they showed him pictures of the victoms, asked him if they deserved to live or die, at least 2 he said deserved to die. :shock: one of his reaitives said this could have been avoided if both sides had more respect for each other, well if the defendant would have had the respect for private property to begin with this all would have been avoided! :(:

What a freakin mess. Too much testosterone, prejudice, and ignorance is what caused all of this. The whole thing is just stupid... It's a shame people had to die.

You know, There was a time that it was perfectly acceptable to kill some one for insulting you. Is it really surprising that imigrants coming to this country from places in this world, that haven't progressed as far as a 'Civilized Society' as we have, are causing problems like this? This guy came from a culture vastly different from ours, with different views of personal rights. I'm not defending this guy, and he IS a murderer, but I have to wonder how much of this was due to culture clash.

Yup he claimed they shot at him first but the shells found and the story by the survivors make him look like a cold blooded killer. Sad thing is that now alot of idiot kids have hatred for hmongs in WI...to which their are alot of those immigrants there. :shock:
