The legacy of the exec order to put Japanese-Americans in internment camps has been condemned. And indeed, our government officially apologized and paid a token reparations fee to the internees.
As I recall, the Supreme Court upheld the internment as constitutional; not a violation of constitutional rights. As a wartime measure, it was considered legal at that time.
Could it happen again? Could Muslims be targeted and interred, as our war against radical Islam continues???
