I think the story is a bit different. It was more of a story of a bunch of hunters running into a crazy Cambodian refugee who has a history of threatening people with guns. The press is trying to turn this into some racial thing, because the perp is stating that he was taunted with racial slurs then fired upon, making it self defense. The reality is that this guy tresspasses, gets in a fight with the property owners, and when they threaten him by reporting him to the wardens for illegal hunting, he decided to hunt them down. Since he trained as a sharpshooter in the army, he got the jump on most of the hunters, where he then went and actually hunted the rest down, gunning them down as they ran. There may have been racial slurs flying along with the bullets. I mean, if I was being hunted down by a psychopath cambodian sharpshooter in the woods, I think I might use a few choice words like " You crazy fu&*in' Cambodian! Stop shooting at me!" as the bullets are flying by. Later, the perp wandered around for a few hours, until he ran into another hunting party. He acted as if nothing had happened to this group. If he was acting in self defense, he did not act like it. This is a case that would make a good TV drama...
