I know alllll about the internment camps, and have even been to Zanzabar, June Lake, etc. It was something that shouldn't have happened; the compensation that some finally received was paltry recompense for their suffering.

You also rightly mention Alien Land Laws still being on the books in New Mexico and Florida. Are you also saying that there are prominent recent cases of these being enforced?

For example, to this day in the state of Nevada, you are entitled to personally hang the man who kills your dog. And in San Francisco, of all places, fellatio is ILLEGAL. Arcane legal relics abound.

Let me mention that I was able to rent my first apparment in Japan because "Hostesses, pets and foreigners are OK!" --and that's how it was advertised.

You mention "Zanzabar, June Lake, etc." To what are you referring?

Are you confused with Manzanar, Tule Lake, Gila River, and the other prison camps/detention centers?

About the Alien Land Laws, I am not versed in the existing enforcement actions. However, if the state does not enforce the law, the law should be revoked.

The sign you mentioned was pretty funny. Where did you live in Japan? Roppongi or Shinjuku?
