I guess one reason I'm looking at a larger portion of the Hmong population after hearing of this is that in the reports the Hmong that they interview and the relatives of this guy have brought up the subject of Hmongs in general not understanding the subject of Private Property and also of not understanding the laws of the land because of the language barrier. Since this guy was here for as long as he was both of THOSE issues should not be brought into the news stories at all. I guess I'm just bringing it up because they are. If they don't want to identify with this man then they shouldn't be trying to defend him based on his race or culture. What he did was wrong Hmong or white.

Also according to a news story on NBC - He had turned to walk away, removed his scope on the rifle(which tells me he had an intent to do this), then turned back to fire. He also pursued the other hunters through the woods while they ran. If it was truely in self-defense then he should not have been continuing to fire.
