Whats interesting to me is the whole internment/relocation episode seems to matter far more to those who are too young to have experienced it.

Those who actually suffered are more stoic and philosophical about their experience, and more likely to be conservative.

EVERYBODY, JA or not, imagines he or she would have fought back in some manner.

After asking hundreds of folks who lived through it about such prospects, there's common agreement that it just isn't possible. You have 100 thousand on one side, mostly women and children, and 150 million on the other side, including the US Army, Marine Corps, Air Corps, Navy ~ all the cops and national guard ~ the situation was simply too one sided for any responsible person to have opted for a fight.

But still, everybody knows he or she would have fought ~ no matter how desperate ~ right?
