It was still wrong to intern American citizens of Japanese descent without any evidence of wrongdoing.

Congressman Billybob also wrote a book on it. I think his comments on this are well worth consideration.

Michelle Malkin and Daniel Pipes are defending the indefensible in this case. There is simply no other phrase that can accurately describe it. Antonin Scalia properly placed the Korematsu ruling approving the internment next to Dred Scott in terms of bad calls.

Thank you my friend. You saved me about 20 minutes of posting time and 20 points on my blood pressure to respond to this canard before I saw it and felt compelled to set aside all other activities and attack.

If searching for rapists, one looks only at the male population.

Daniel Pipes may be a pretty smart guy, but bloopers like this can convince people he's an idiot...

Absolutely right. To even consider interning American citizens simply because they are Muslim is hysteria at its worst.

Michelle Malkin is clearly a sleeper agent for the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and ought to be thrown into the deepest cell in Leavenworth.

Why do I say this? Well, she's Filipina - that's all I need.

Apparently that is her position on interning Muslims. I believe that those to propound such positions ought to be first against the wall.
