Your "common sense" is lacking commonality and sensibility. The true fact is that even if there were Japanese governmental agents (which there were not) among the 120,000 Americans of Japanese descent, does it make good use of governmental power to incarcerate 120,000 people (most of whom are children) in order to jail 1 guy?

The conservative answer should be to have government enforce existing law (instead of violating the US Constitution). The conservative answer should have been to keep the middle class Japanese-Americans in their homes, businesses, and farms! Instead the liberals stuck those families in a prison camp to rot for 2-4 years. The families NEVER recovered and ended up welfare dependent people for the next 3 generations!

That's great if you're a DNC power broker, but pretty lousy for the younger folks who get parasitized for their entire lives. FDR's regime was like an alien attached to the faces of the unsuspecting host humans...sucking the life and creativity out of their host and turning them into lifeless shells.

Well, the liberals got what they wanted. They got life long allegiance of the welfare-dependent, mind-numbed, spirit-killed people who emerged from the prison camps.

See "Stockholm Syndrome" for more info.

There was estimated to be 5000, not one. As we saw on 9-11, it only takes 20, let alone 5000. The families should have been generously compensated for anything they lost, though.
