The internment was wrong. Very wrong.
There’s a difference between theft of possessions and wrongful imprisonment, vs “no, you can’t come in”.

Frankly as compared to a possible defeat at the hands of the Imperial Japan dictatorship, I can’t see the internment as that big a deal.

But asking Trump supporters about it to make them look “bad” is pure BS.

Hilary’s supporters - what do those radical idiots believe?

Below is a reality that has been hidden by the left wing media re German Americans in WWII. Not only Japanese were interned during WWII, Germans were, and Italians were closely monitored in coastal areas.

One of the best kept secrets of WWII was the internment of German American men, women and children, away from the rest of America.

Canada and some Latin America countries did the same and interned some Italians.

Why did these evil countries do this. They were at war with the Axis, Germany, Italy and Japan, and they did not want to have acts of terrorism committed against their citizens by possible terrorists.

Did the media label FDR as a Nazi for the internment of Germans, Japanese and some Italians during WWII?

Who were the presidents during WWII, and what party controlled congress and the Supreme Court?

I wonder what the Trump ground game in IA will be like after the holidays. Keep in mind he gained traction this summer when he found a way to provide those helicopter rides for kids at the state fair.

It will be very intensive. He’s not going to let that state get away so the media can scream and holler about the faux Trump demise for 8 days until New Hampshire.

“One of the best kept secrets of WWII was the internment of German American men, women and children, away from the rest of America. “

Tom Brokaw, in “The Greatest Generation” wrote about the Italian POW’s here in America.

My Great Aunt was interned for a while. She worked at the German Embassy and they sat on them until they could be sent back to Germany.

Were the words “Immigrants” or “some” used in this Poll?

As in a database of “Muslims Immigrants” and “some Mosques”?

Just part of the Trump Supporters are Nazis or better yet, they supported the actions of a Democrat President during WWII.

I disagree, internment was right.

To say it was wrong is to assume that none of them might have helped the enemy in some way had they not been. But we will never know that.

It’s only looks wrong in retrospect now because nothing did happen.

Good or bad are immaterial. It was necessary.

There is a large contingent of voters who think YOU should be interned because you’re a Tea Party / climate change denier / right wing / etc type, so obviously a threat to domestic tranquility.

It grossly violates core American principles. Don’t “burn the village to save it”.

What they don’t tell you is there are stories of German POW’s being allowed to leave the camp and keep jobs and even socialize.

It is certainly wrong to say that none might have helped the enemy. At least 3 did directly following the attack on Pearl Harbor.
