        Hmong hunter to use the insanity defense. I guess they didn't
        want to use the "Damn 4 eyed chink can't see and can't shoot,
        therefore you must acquit" defense as suggested by O'Reiley.

HAYWARD, Wisconsin (AP) -- A man accused of shooting six fellow deer hunt ers to death and wounding two others after he was caught trespassing in the woods pleaded not guilty Wednesday. Chai Soua Vang, 36, waived his right to a preliminary hearing and will st and trial on six counts of murder and three of attempted murder. Vang's lawyer, Steven Kohn, said the defense was considering whether Vang should change his plea to not guilty by reason of insanity. The gunfire broke out November 21 after some hunters discovered the Hmong immigrant in a tree stand -- a platform used to watch for deer -- on th eir land. Vang has suggested he acted in self-defense, telling investigators the vi ctims fired a shot at him first and berated him with racist slurs. Paul, Minnesota, truck driver is behind bars on $25 million bail . Prosecutors added the third count of attempted murder Wednesday, accusing Vang of two distinct attempts to kill one hunter. Wisconsin Attorney General Peg Lautenschlager, who is personally handling the case against Vang, appeared in court as a prosecutor Wednesday for the first time since she was elected in 2002. The last case she prosecuted was the kidnapping of a 12-year-old girl in the late 1990s, when she was a US attorney. She has said she wants to prosecute Vang because of her "personal interes t" in cases that involve crimes against people.
