Blow it out your ass, Tojo!
I may very well incur the wrath of some around here, but it was entirely reasonable and appropriate for Roosevelt to do what he did. These internment camps were not, despite what you've heard, the equivalent of concentration camps; they fell somewhere between military barracks and your average hotel!

I'm not normally one to quote fictional characters, but Bruce Willis' character from Under Siege, where he plays a General empowered under martial law to police NY city after a terrorist attack: referring to the Arab terrorists, "You can hide effectively in the Arab-American community. Unfortunately for you, you may only hide there!"
He proceeds to intern Arab American residents.
I'm offended that a group of "citizens" find it necessary to form such a league and use it for propaganda purposes. Sounds like a PAC and a liebral one at that. Shades of NAACP.
You're either an American citizen or you're not. I don't go around saying I'm a Bohemian American Citizen. Maybe I should start a league too. Geesh!! Power to the BOHUNKs!!
My opinion only , given with love in my heart for the Constitution but not for those who abuse or fail tom understand the costs required to maintain and preserve it.
Some wars are never over 'til the last participant is planted in terra firma... and even then, there are those who would dig up hatred to continue the fight.
