Has anyone heard that there was a somewhat positive side to that? Like 4000 Japanese American students went to college at govt.expense; And the people could leave the camps as long as they lived in a noncoastal state?

I've heard about those camps for many years and even read a book on it. I have never read or heard of anyone being killed.

Camps in Arizona and CA are famous among Japanese Amricans.eve among some ppl in Japan.
Looking for only positive side is no meaning, won't be a excuse. But don' worry, it was long time ago. That time was warfare.
Japanese also knows,in every issue, there are 2 sides of coin.
Today US and JP are good relationship.

well i heard they killed the ppl like crazy at that camp. thats good right? umm i think not. and only 4000 out of what? and buddy, theres nothing, nothing free in this world. especially govt money. theres always something behind it. and they could leave camp AS LONG AS they live ina noncoastal area? now how many ppl lived in these coastal areas? and how many do you think they were spies and deserved that. normal people trying to carry on with a normal life with their family and kids and trying to get them a good education so they can have a good job when they grow up. and then theyre all of a sudden put in half jail- camp because they are JAPANESE!?!?!?!?! that is not fair. thats almost descriminating. the poor kids that lost their childhood there... its so sad. and how could you think the camp was actually GOOD for these ppl?

The whole thing was at the government expense, but it was still a bad thing. I know some German-American's were happy to hear about Nazi advancements, but they weren't put in camps.

The Japanese who were finally allowed to join the military formed the 442 regimental combat team, and they were a highly decorate combat unit in the European Theater.

Did you know that, when the US Army found homosexuals in the army, they kicked them out. But they also dropped them all of at the same place in the US. San Francisco! The US army invented the Gay District of SF! Now, thats a story!

No, i've got not universal any. it is attractive to income a museum is beginning exhibiting their advancements on the same time as interred, incredibly after having seen the action picture SNOW FALLING ON CEDARS, from the terrific-business enterprise, depicting what occurred in basic terms till now Pearl Harbor in our Pacific Northwest, then in basic terms after. That action picture speaks to racism immediately in basic terms as strongly, incredibly in Max von Sydow's last argument to the jury. A could desire to-see. Stars Sam Shepherd, Ethan Hawke, and that super character actor now starring in the centred visitor, because of fact the sheriff. Bringing forward that attitude of interring an entire way of existence/race for an act by ability of their former united states of america grew to become into bone-chilling in our 9/11 suspicion of all Muslims for the act of an intensive branch of their faith. Racism and guilt by ability of association proceed to be ineffective exercises. If in basic terms all our leaders have been as genuine to the point and implication of our shape.
