I was about 8 when my Dad sent me in to the Hardware Store to get some Hack Saw Blades, I came out gave him the change and the blades (made in Japan), he sent me right back in with the change and told me to tell the man I wanted Made in the USA blades.
(Ol Dad was ticked and that did not happen very often)

I had my tooth knocked out when I was 12. Mom took me to a dentist, who was Japanese from Hawaii. Since I was 12, he could only put in a temporary tooth and as I grew it would fall out every few months. I guess my dad got tired of my mom taking me back all the time. So one day he said he would take me. When the dentist came out my dad stood up and said “a God damned gook! No wonder you can’t fix his tooth. I used to shoot you sons of bitches in the war!”

We left at that point and I never went back to him.
