Thread title: Japanese-American internment during WWII was actually a good thing?

Not my thread.
But it is you who insist on lowering the discussion to the fifth grade level!
Per your request: yes, the internment was GOOD as it eliminated the threat of Japanese V column operating from withing the US at the time when axis powere seemed to be winning the war. Happy?

No, not happy. But okay. Since that is the best you can come up with.

Personal attack + circular argument = Nothing new. Sorry.

It certainly seems that you can come up with anything altogether lol
I haven't seen a single, logically coherent argument against the internment.

OurStory : Activities : Life in a WWII Japanese-American Internment Camp : More Information

When my brother joined the Marine corps in year 1995, one of the reasons is to defend American way of life. (the land of freedom)

Many of you posters should be ashamed of yourself when you call yourself American!
Need I say more?

You didn't make a single logically coherent and historically valid point and instead still try to bring this discussion to fifth grade level. Good luck

Stop the hysteria. Thousands of people sacrificed much more than their personal freedom to defend the freedom of the entire nation and win this bloody war we didn't start. Somehow the plight of Japanese Americans doesn't strike me as an extreme sacrifice.

LOL You are funny. First of all I dont even think I can categorize myself as Japanese-American. I am mixed. The thread has nothing to do with me. I am only 28 years old, not like I have seen world war II.

How do you define American way of life?! The land of freedom is one way to define it. Internment camp is against the American way of life. American government since apologized for it. It has nothing to do with the sacrifice of Japanese-American. So there is NOTHING good come out of internment camp. You need to stop the hysteria since you haven't made any good point (your seat belt analogy is bs to say the least.)

The fact that you call yourself American is ridiculous because obviously, you don't support American way of life. You can come back and say your last word. I know you will

In the land of freedom we also have prisons and sentence people to death. Protecting the freedom is not an easy task. There were thousand of Americans who sacrificed their lives to protect that freedom so excuse me while I won't shed a tear over the internment of Japanese-Americans.

i don't think you get any of this instead focusing on hysteria
