“Gregg has recently become enamored of the deceitful language of the Left. He knows the word concentration camp is loaded. It is typically used only in context of Nazis these days.”
Yes, that’s why it wasn’t used to describe the, um, non-concentration camps in Bosnia, right? And why it won’t be used again as soon as the French start rounding up Muslims.
The only attempted linguistic manipulation going on here is Cedarford’s. Everyone here knows perfectly well that the Japanese-Americans weren’t put into ovens.
The larger point, which those who wish to whitewash American history are studiously avoiding, is that a government with the power to dispossess you and round you up without trial is a government with the power to pop you into a Zyklon B shower if it so chooses.
The fact that the American government was less ill-intentioned than the National Socialist government is true, but that is damnation by praise so faint it can barely be detected by microscope.
