The shameful treatment of Japanese Americans has absolutely squat - nothing - zero - nada and bugger-all to do with the issue of whether or not to accept non-Americans into the country

I am for compassion to refugees. But this is shameless bullshit

I agree with Meade...

This "comparison" and the other bullshit comparison to sending Jews back to the clutches of Adolph Hitler, are so non-analogous that it doesn't do anything but undermine the credibility of the people who make the comparisons...

Of course in all fairness, there's a lot of bullshit being employed by the people on the other side of this too...(See my thread about Donald Trump and the thousands of 9/11 cheering Muslims in New Jersey...)

...and most of those Japanese stoically endured their humiliation, and even signed up to fight (heroically) for America.

why?

because of this nation and what its founding documents guarantee. liberty life the pursuit of happiness (yes, tell me again how that that is not in the Const. and how the Decl. means nothing to the law, or whatever....)

they endured suspicion and confinement (we were not cruel to them, that I m aware of) in time of war, and found fraternity in the end. today they are our brothers and are legend in our military lore...., heroes. just as dr king is a hero

and speaking of things that aren t our law or part of our founding...., the statue of liberty is great and I really do like france and the French (in theory anyway, the one Frenchman I knew took a friggin hour to shave, one annoying patch at a time, me and the English guys had to threaten him with forced removal before he would get out of the bathroom), but those flowery and moving words inscribed on her do not force us to let every tom dick and Ahab in here to blow our stupid asses up.

and it is really shameful how you accused me of wanting to round up muslims into certain neighborhoods, and register them, like I was some Nazi. I said nothing of the kind.

....and the muslims are segregating themselves , that s the problem, duh...

and again, I don t mean all muslims. take the guys from the old northern alliance in Afghanistan. some of them were, and are, great men. they fought for freedom. mahsoud (sp?) was a hero, and died a martyr at the hands of the cowardly al quaeda/Taliban/Saudi bastards.

his right hand man, dr Abdullah Abdullah is second in line in Afghanistan now, and he finally has a decent Pashtun partner, old whats his name.

thank god Karzai is gone, Abdullah kept the peace thru his rule too, somehow.

and in conclusion I d like to ask you to stick it in your ear :ok

(yes meade, I know the grammar for "me and the English guys...." was wrong, but I was typing fast (I m getting better!), and went I went back, I decided that it sounded better written wrongly, as I was speaking of ruffianesqe behavior...)

I agree. When a comma isn't required, neither is the space where the comma would be if it was required.

It has every thing to do with the racist treatment of people who just happen to look like jihadis.

You're not much of a reader. I stated, and you kindly quoted, that I am for compassion to refugees.

I am against false analogies issued by bullshit artists. And anyway, Japanese don't look like jihadis except perhaps to you

Oh well.... sometimes you coulda done what you woulda done even after it was done but the affect has the same difference as if nothing was ever done in the first place.

The bigotry, hate, and ignorance stinking up this place lately is appalling. I'm done.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all, and may you each remember where you and your families came from, and find the grace and compassion to extend those same opportunities to anyone who seeks refuge here.
