“I AM SO TIRED OF THIS LIE ABOUT THE POOR JAPENSESE PRISONERS AND THE CAMPS. Many were given a chance to prove themselves as American citizeds and did so.”
I think you need to have walked in their shoes. My son-in-law is half Japanese. His mother was born in that internment camp. His grandparents, loyal American citizens, were stripped of all their possessions and their business taken from them as they were carted off. Yeah, you can talk about it in terms of national security and the time of war and all of that, but internment destroyed people’s lives unnecessarily. And yes, my SIL’s family did come back, but it took the rest of their lives to do it. So from what I have learned by personal experience with my extended family, I would say what you wrote was largely bull$hit!
“His grandparents, loyal American citizens, were stripped of all their possessions and their business taken from them as they were carted off.”
No. Although there were certainly injustices, the interned were given time to dispose of their property as best they could. Smaller items they could carry with them.
You make it sound like SS troopers crashed in on them as they slept, and tossed them on trains like so many bales of hay. That’s not how it was done.
Further, while your SIL’s grandparents may very well have been loyal American citizens, there were spies and saboteurs among them. Don’t ever imagine that there weren’t.
