Well, slavery and the conquering of the indigenous peoples rank high in USA historical low points, but this one is right up there.
If it was so "necessary," it begs the question why they didn't incarcerate German Americans as well. Too easy for them to blend in with the rest of the country's white population for one, I guess.
I have heard the rationale of the Japanese being "newer immigrants," thus being "still too close" to the old country, and I don't buy it.
These were American citizens, and I see this as an absolute stain on our history along with many others.
