The liberals today didn’t live through that era and don’t know squat on how Americans felt during the war or their feelings towards the Japanese.

You got that right. I was born in 1935 and well remember WW11.

Americans wouldn't have minded if we dropped more atomic bombs on Japan.

I get a kick out of today's lamenting about Roosevelt interning Japanese Americans as being outrageous.
I believe had he not done that, some of those Japanese would have been beaten to death by American citizenry.

I personally witnessed, in Boston, after the war was on for several years and some wounded service people were coming home, Chinese being beaten, because the Citizenry didn't differentiate between orientals in that time period. -Tom

I remember doing some hangar flying with some WW2 vets. One a ninety YO said that right after the attack on Pearl he and his buddies went cruising to find Japs (as he still calls them) to beat them up. The crying libtards never mention that Italian-Americans and German-Americans were put in camps as well. One guy told me his mother was interred while he was fighting in Italy.

Almost never mentioned anymore. We also don't talk about how cruel our citizens can be even to fellow Americans i.e..the so called Civil War.
