My Grandfather was a “guest” at a Japanese internment camp (1942-1945) and ended up losing his property. He often said that FDR should had been locked up for that. HE WAS A US CITIZEN and he was treated like a criminal. So much for his civil rights.

How about prosecuting JFK and LBJ offcials over the bungling of the Vietnam war and the tens-of-thousands of civilian deaths??? Aren’t they war criminals???

Oh that’s right....FDR, JFK and LBJ are Democrats. Nevermind.

And don’t forget that the great liberal Justice Earl Warren was the “enforcer” of the Japanese internment under FDR. Or, Bobby Kennedy wiretapped MLK, etc., etc., etc., etc....

And one other thing: My father was a Colonel in charge of a section of Japan during the Occupation. One of Gen. MacArthur’s { That Right-wing War-Monger /s} orders was never, never refer to the Japanese as Japs. The Americans were to show respect to the Japanese.
