Uchida compared the atmosphere during the internments to the current rhetoric associated with building a wall on the countrys southern border with Mexico and limiting immigration.
These people had a serious harm done to them as they were American citizens. This harm was done by a Democrat President. They are diluting their message tying in with the current open borders crowd.

There is absolutely NO comparison between these two things.
None.

You know the Japanese had a plan to invade the US. They changed their mind for a very reason.

Lets put a different spin on that. American citizens were rounded up in Japan. We sent immediate notice that we expected our citizens to be returned to us. It was a long and interesting process with their return.
Japan gave us the same notice. They expected their citizens to be taken care of and returned. At that time knowing who was a US citizen or not was not clear and many rounded up WERE NOT and they were returned to Japan.

There were probably several reasons for the roundup of American citizens. Was safety one of them????

It was not racism as German and Italians were also interned.

Hardly any German and Italians were interned-——some were probably German/Italian nationalist types,like The Bund.

One of my first G.W. Bush disappointments was his failure to inter all the radical moslems in the country beginning on September 12, 2001. The 1998 movie “The Seige” set the example.
To: raiderboy
That’s the problem right there. WWII, was it fought against a country, or against a government, or against a race?
By making it against a race, the Democrats played their same old game.
