* \u201cMari Matsuda, the first female of Asian descent to become tenured law professor in the US. It is she who has called for hate speech laws to only apply to speech against \u201chistorically marginalized populations.\u201d<\/p>\n

I find Asians complaining about racism, discrimination, oppression, etc to be extremely offensive. It is an act of overt hostility to founding stock Americans.<\/p>\n

Nobody forced them to come to this country. For the most part, they\u2019ve been treated extremely well. Calling themselves \u201chistorically marginalized\u201d is a form of aggression and stealing. Matsuda should feel free to return to her ancestral homeland.<\/p>\n

Btw, one of the reasons Roosevelt ordered some \u201cJapanese-Americans\u201d interned during WW2 was because not a small number of them were collaborating with Japan, doing things such as reporting which ships left west coast ports and when. We knew this because we had broken the MAGIC codes. Yes I\u2019m sure numerous among them were loyal and innocent, however the usual nonsense that the internments were due to \u201chysteria\u201d is nonsense. Also, it wasn\u2019t all \u201cJapanese-Americans\u201d, it was only those living in certain designated zones, mostly around major ports.<\/p>\n

* Norm Mineta was the Secretary of Transportation after 9\/11. On September 21, 2001, Mineta sent a letter to all U.S. airlines forbidding them from practicing racial profiling; or subjecting Middle Eastern or Muslim passengers to a heightened degree of pre-flight scrutiny. He stated that it was illegal for the airlines to discriminate against passengers based on their race, color, national or ethnic origin or religion. Subsequently, administrative enforcement actions were brought against three different airlines based on alleged contraventions of these rules, resulting in multimillion-dollar settlements. He showed his intention \u201cabsolutely not\u201d to implement racial screenings in reply to the question from Steve Kroft on 60 Minutes right after 9-11. He later recalled his decision \u201cwas the right thing (and) constitutional\u201d, based on his own experience as one of Japanese-Americans, those who had \u201clost the most basic human rights\u201d by being discriminated against and interned during the Pacific War. [Wikipedia]<\/p>\n

So the next time your grandma gets selected for \u201crandom screening\u201d, you can thank FDR for locking up little Norm.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m surprised that Wikipedia still refers to the war as the Pacific War. The correct terminology would be the War for the Re-Unification of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
