Civil liberties go out the door when the survival of our republic is at stake. It happened in WWII under Roosevelt. I am sure it has happened other times.

My father and his family were forced to go to one of those internment camps in Minidoka. They were only allowed to take what they could carry with them. None of them had voiced support for Japan in the war. It wasn't common sense, it was bull$**t and rightly regarded today as racism, a grotesque violation of civil rights and a stain on Roosevelt's legacy -- at least outside of the radical right bubble.
My uncles joined the 442nd in WW II. Clearly, they understood more about patriotic sacrifice than you do.
