Re: CRAIGSLIST.COM KILLER

I actually wrote a paper in grad school regarding how the Hmong helped America in the time of the Vietnam war....such a hard working people with great values and families that stick together. I guess that's why I find this so surprising. Bad apples seem rare!

Growing up in the Hmong community I've seen both sides of the coin. I've seen people grow up and make something of themselves through hard work and education. That is something I'm extremely proud of considering not too long ago the majority of Hmong refugees who came here were farmers with no formal education or life skills that are geared towards modern city life.

On the other hand, I've also seen the complete opposite of that growing up...
