Shortly after the Empire of Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, Gary Tanimura’s family was among the more than 3,500 Japanese and Japanese Americans living in the Monterey Bay area who were stripped of their land and possessions, and detained with the help of the Monterey County Sheriff at the Salinas Armory and the Salinas Rodeo Grounds before being shipped to an internment camp in Poston, Arizona, under President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s infamous Executive Order 9066.

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.

That’s mighty white of them...
,-)
You know the Japanese had a plan to invade the US. They changed their mind for a very reason.
Let the lawsuits begin!
These people had a serious harm done to them as they were American citizens.
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.
Now...I'm sure that Tanimura & Antle --an ag biggie in Monterey County-- has absolutelllllllly NO financial interest AT ALL in warped food markets that benefit HUGELY from an endless supply of cheap, desperate ag labor from a country increasingly beset by a NARCO-WAR, right..?
Oh, no..! I'm sure this is ALLLLLL principles.
Yup! Reallllllly impressed.
There were probably several reasons for the roundup of American citizens. Was safety one of them????
“Was safety one of them????”
Allegedly,but it really was racism.

I didnt get the apology from the fricken japs SCREW JAPS!!
It was not racism as German and Italians were also interned.
Not as serious harm as my relative who was tortured to death by the Japs
Hardly any German and Italians were interned-——some were probably German/Italian nationalist types,like The Bund.

I.e. they got Mexican merde in the midst? Ain’t that the custom today?
And presumptuous of them to speak for everyone, as well.
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.
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.
George Bush should have shut down the border September 11. Why didn't he?
Monterey County leftist are so noble, caring and thoughtful.
Gak~
Gotta educate yourself. Look up the history of the 442 Division during WWII
