Oh, enough with the drama.

The Jews were stripped of their property and they could not own businesses. They were forced to sell, or they would get nothing.

Tell me how that is dissimilar to what we did to the internees?

And you talk about not reading the answer. If you were more interested in learning something, and not so blind in your defense of our past stupidity you might learn something.

But your country, right or wrong. That’s the kind of thinking that ends up with people in camps.

“Oh, enough with the drama.”

Don’t bring none, won’t be none.

“The Jews were stripped of their property and they could not own businesses. They were forced to sell, or they would get nothing. Tell me how that is dissimilar to what we did to the internees?”

The Japanese internees were not “stripped” of their property. They were not “stripped” of cash or valuables; their jewelry was not stolen, their gold teeth were not pulled, the women were not made into sex slaves, they weren’t starved and worked to death, they weren’t gassed and made into lampshades...

Similar? Really? Not in this universe.

“If you were more interested in learning something, and not so blind in your defense of our past stupidity you might learn something.”

My wife is Japanese, which means that my six children are half Japanese. Having a personal interest in this matter, I have studied it in depth, even researching original documents.

No one should learn from your simplistic, inaccurate version of events. This is the kind of crap I would expect to see on DU, not FR.

“But your country, right or wrong. That’s the kind of thinking that ends up with people in camps.”

Again, despicable, vile slander. You think that’s why FDR ordered the internment? You need to try and elevate your thinking above the level of a brain-dead liberal.
