So you just don't believe that first-generation Chinese-Americans deserve the same rights as other American citizens?

My point is that the naturalization laws of the U.S. are far too liberal, making it very easy for enemies of the U.S. to "set up shop" here.

First-generation expatriates are certainly entitled to the benefits of being a citizen although it comes with the double-edged sword of being subject to dire actions in the time of war. I do, however, believe that all such "actions" must be subject to due process.

Would you agree that the naturalization process of the U.S. has created a "Trojan Horse" system that has weakened the U.S.?

First-generation expatriates are certainly entitled to the benefits of being a citizen although it comes with the double-edged sword of being subject to dire actions in the time of war.

So apparently, the answer is that first-generation citizens are not entitled to the same rights as other American citizens...

I do, however, believe that all such "actions" must be subject to due process.

Hey.. that's all I'm asking. If every American citizen that was interned had that due process, I wouldn't be posting here now. I agree with you here - but I don't think we are talking about providing due process to everyone that would be interned.

Would you agree that the naturalization process of the U.S. has created a "Trojan Horse" system that has weakened the U.S.?

Not really - I don't think we are that weak... But this is a completely different subject - if you want to argue for making it more difficult to become an American citizen, you may have a case. But I believe that once you become an American citizen, you should be treated just like every other American citizen.
