No matter how you hate Chinatown, it was, is, and will exist. It will exist not only in USA, but also in Canada, Europe and other places.
Which posts have you seen that I said I hated Chinatown? But not all Chinatown have good dim-sum and great beef chow-fun though ...
It is a WWII atrocity of US government to set up Japanese concentration camp, a similar behavior Hitler did against the Jews. I'm glad that US government apologized for that and compensated the Japanese victims.
It is definitely sickening and repulsive to hear somebody from a country as "beacon of democracy and freedom" to tout those camps.
However, the U.S. did not do as Hitler did against the Jews (Holocaust) and like you said, our government apologized for that and compensated the Japanese victims. Therefore, how could you be definitely sickening and repulsive to hear somebody from a country as "beacon of democracy and freedom" to tout those camps?
In the time of war, anything can happen ...
BTW, I saw a Chinese posted on web his exciting experience of how he spent 10 years to get US citizenship and another 15 years to get rid of it. It is actually not easy to renounce a US citizenship, much less freer than to get rid of Chinese citizenship, as I was told.
HIHO - Hard In Hard Out
If it takes about 10 year to get a citizen then around 15 years to renounce a US citizenship does not seem abnormal.
I fully support UN vision that people should have chance to choose where he/she wants to live.
Of course, only if that place would welcome you though ...
