You could say the same about the jews in Germany, its a legitimate slippery slope. You should have seen the way I was treated after 9/11 aka Inside Job. I was an outcast because my skin was brown.

Well of course I am sorry that people blamed you for 9/11 just because of your skin first of all. I don't think we should have interned Americans of Japanese heritage, I just like giving the people on the more unpopular side of history's side of the story. Still disagree with them, but they did have valid reasons to be concerned about Japanese Americans. I just don't like writing them off as racists. Again though I would like to reiterate that does not make it okay to intern people without probable cause.

everyone is racist, thats the sad truth. Some more than others but once war begins, all bets are off, everyone of the ethnicity from the region is targeted. History makes that pretty clear.
