Right on the money!

And, about 1/2 of those who were interred in the US WWII internment camps were of German or Italian ethnicity.

What you have just written is bullsh*t. NO German-Americans or Italian-Americans were "interned." A few hundred of them were imprisoned on specific, individual charges. But NONE were rounded up for "having at least one Japanese (alien) grandparent."

Under that criterion, 110,000 Japanese-Americans were interned. If your statement were correct, I would have died in one of those camps, shortly after I was born prematurely in January, 1943. I had one German grandparent, and the medical facilities at those camps were tar paper shacks.

Get your facts straight. Ignorance is dangerous generally, but especially on FR.
