If the guy that Vang shot initially survived long enough to radio his fellow hunting buddies for help, they would be showing up with guns pointed in Vang's direction, ready to fire. This would make Vang have a "kill or be killed" attitude.

I'm not at all saying this is what happened. I am just guessing what might be used as a defense argument.
well, like that saying goes...better to be "judged by six" [of a jury, nowdays it may be 12 on a jury] then to be "carried by six."

I can see how a man might react that way, fearing for his life. neverthe less, Vang may very likely be guilty.

However, "jury of peers" of Wisconson folks likely will not look kindly upon that working class non-white immigrant, Vang. He aint't even a popular and wealthy NFL football player such as O.J.
