I know people who were interned (they were kids then), they were not comfortable.

They were stripped of their property both real and financial (never got it back) but more importantly they were stripped of their freedom.

In 1988, Ronald Reagan signed legislation that apologized for the internment on behalf of the U.S. government. The legislation said that government actions were based on “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership”.

The U.S. government disbursed more than $1.6 billion in reparations to Japanese Americans who had been interned and to their heirs.

Precisely. I thought the whole point of this site was that that's the important thing.
