If the one hunter pointed a rifle at him, then Vang had the right to defend himself and take that hunter out...guess realizing he is in BFE and SOL in the woods and outnumbered 6-7 to 1, decided self preservation...kill or be killed.. thats what i think happened....there's no way in hell i'm getting out of here alive after taking out one hunter...they're gonna hunt me down and skin me alive out here in the woods...
wouldn't be surprised at all if some of the hunters had been drinking.....several friends/neighbors i have talked to that hunt and bring whiskey with them to keep warm....and why did just one of them have a rifle ???? figure all of them would be armed coming after a trespasser... heck i would....shotgun and sidearm....
either way, Vang is a walking deadman in that town...
