I understand why they wouldn't want to be reminded of it on every step, since it's not exactly their finest hour, but I still think their attitude when it does come to their attention is inappropriate.
Offtop: I've read about that Japanese decendants' internment situation. I think there was even a story about it on CNN once. Grizly parallels could be drawn with recent history and Guantanamo Bay detainees as well as those supposed CIA prison camps in Eastern Europe. Although in all honesty I don't believe all of those peisoners are innoncent... but I wouldn't be surprised if say... 10% of them were.
