We believed that the Jap-Am's were a threat to national security.

The "Jap-Ams"? Pardon me, your unwashed slip is showing.

Jap-Am, short for "Japanese-Americans". I don't know about you, but I
don't like typing any more than I have to, and I use abbreviations
when I can.


When we took these "threats to national security" off to prison camps

Correction, they were NOT prison camps.


Idiot. People were taken to these places and not allowed to leave. That's

a
prison no matter how you look at it.

Name-calling already? Usually that signifies loss of argument. [Well,
I can't think of anything else, so I'll call you a name and pretend
I've won.]


Any thoughts on Dave's theory that Japanese citizens were held in a place
that wasn't really a prison?
