You basically just said "Oppression is fine if we have a reason for it". But nevermind how disgusting that thought is. I was responding to "we used to have a government that didn't oppress people" and i just proved that wasn't ever the case. With history. Your own history.

"Japs just killed 3000 men at Pearl and have declared war!!!"
But you didn't put "japs" in internment camps. You put americans in internment camps.

" If I'd been at the table, I'd say "my god, round up the ones here and put them in one spot so we can watch them."
And that's the proof conservatives don't really believe in freedom. They don't believe in small government. Depriving your own citizens of freedom is as far from small government as it can get.

" More than one person rationally thought that that should be done."
I found amusing that you included "rationally" in this sentence.
Well, if more than one person thinks something should be done I guess I am out of arguments. Especially since more than one person did so "rationally"

"You libs are GREAT at monday morning quarterbacking, sinse you are all too dainty to be real ones! 😉"
Yeah, it means you're delicate if you think you shouldn't imprison your own citizens because they look like one of your enemies.

But you didn't imprison everyone though, right? You only imprisoned americans looking like the japanese. Not americans looking german-ey, or italianish. There were self-declared nazi sympathizers. What's the matter, you ran out of manliness and turned into dainty liberals?

Sonhouse where you been? After all the digging to find Trump crime, all they could find was an employee Weiselberg who may have falsified tax deductions benefits, some such as that.?????? Nothing else???? No wonder you are laying low.
