of course this isn't relevant.....Chai Vang wasn't a hot head at all....
Minneapolis police said they arrested Chai Vang on Christmas Eve 2001 after he waved a gun and threatened to kill his wife. No charge was filed because she didn't cooperate with authorities, spokesman Ron Reier said. St. Paul police said there had been two domestic violence calls to his home in the past year, but both were resolved without incident.
Oh, and I bet you believe his version of the story....
Vang told investigators he didn't realize he was on private property when he climbed the tree stand, according to the probable-cause statement released Tuesday. The county has thousands of acres of public hunting land, some of it "virtually around" the private property where the shooting occurred, Meier has said.
A hunter approached and told Vang he was on private property, and Vang started to leave as other hunters approached, the statement said. Vang said the hunters surrounded him and some called him racial slurs.
Vang said he started walking away but looked back to see the first hunter point his rifle at him and then fire a shot that hit the ground 30 to 40 feet behind him, the statement said.
Vang told investigators that's when he started firing at the group, according to the statement.
They had the drop on him and he was still able to kill 6 of the 8 that he shot.....riiiiigggghhhhttttt
not only that, they weren't even bunched up. The had surrounded him and he was still able to kill them all.
Tell you what, I think that forensics will answer many questions. Wonder how many were shot in the back. I bet that if there were 6 people charging one guy from different directions (remember he was surrounded) that he would have a tough time hitting even half of them, let alone killing all of them.
Have you seen any report that suggests that there was more than one gun among the dead? They must have been pretty freakin brave to charge a guy with a gun when they were unarmed themselves. |
