According to the Barr quote you posted “The Greatest Intrusion On Civil Liberties In American History”
Ok, pay attention….’the greatest’…he did not state ‘the only’ as you seem to be implying here!
331,420,450 MILLION Americans put in a national lockdown and stay at home orders
Vs
120,000 THOUSAND Japanese-Americans put in internment camps, housed in barracks, with multiple families living together in communal areas. Each functioned as its own town with schools, a post office, and farmland, all monitored by guards and closed off to the outside world with barbed wire fences.
So yeah, 331,420,450 vs 120,000 there is no comparison
I’m sure Barr remembers the internment camps but it was not what he was speaking about
Since you brought it up…
• a Democrat ordered the Japanese-American internment camps - Franklin Delano Roosevelt
• kids were not put behind bars, they were not in a prison or jail, though they may have been ‘fenced’ in
• By December 1944, the Supreme Court put an end to Japanese internment camps in the Endo v. the United States case, ruling that the War Relocation Authority "has no authority to subject citizens who are concededly loyal to its leave procedure." The following month, Japanese-American “evacuees” from the West Coast would finally be allowed to return to their homes. The last camp did not close until March 1946.
