@maziehirono hasn't repudiated membership in the ultraviolent Japanese descendency. Jap murderers killed 110,000 Americans in the Pacific Theater after their sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. They wounded an additional 250,000. When will Crazy Mazie repudiate her murderous heritage?

Please spare me your platitudes about the war being long ago.

Here is what the Japanese did:

The Japanese military kept prisoners of war in the worst conditions of privation, open sewage washed through "hospital" facilities, such food as was provided was infested with insects. Starvation was part of the punishment imposed for being POWs.

As a small child in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I saw the long-aftermath of Japanese cruelty: in our neighborhood we regularly saw a man who just walked ... dull, listless, meandering, purposeless. "He survived the Bataan death march."

Not the nonsensically glorified version of Japanese cruelty depicted in "Bridge on the River Kwai." No. This was march march march ... no food no water ... day and night ... march till you drop ... drop and die or drop and get beaten until you die.

And the abuse took that man's mind, and the minds of many others.

So one is left to wonder whether he would have been better off if he'd been executed summarily as the murdering bastards of the Japanese Army liked to do.

Today, as we know, the Japanese have a love for the American sport of baseball that may exceed our own love of the sport.

But here's what they used baseball bats for in WWII:

“The POWs were ordered to fall in and witness a very cruel spectacle. John was beaten across the back and legs more than 200 times with a baseball bat, but simply refused to go down, reducing his Japanese tormentor to ... exhausting fury ....”

Two hundred strokes with a baseball bat. That's as many as 60 or more "at bats" in @MLB!

Now, I could go on ALL DAY. ALL NIGHT. For days and weeks. Recounting in terribly minute detail just how revoltingly inhuman and cruel the Japanese were.

If someone would like to speak in defense of those behaviors to which I have pointed in this thread, feel free.

Now, Jim, why are you going on like this? Haven't we rehabilitated the Japanese?

Well, as it turns out, one Japanese American, Crazy @maziehirono has attempted to portray nominees as evil and vicious and out of the "mainstream" because of their membership in a Catholic religious and social organization, the #KnightsOfColumbus.

True enough. Knights of Columbus adhere to the teaching of the Catholic Church on the human dignity of the unborn child and on the sacrament of matrimony as being an estate reserved to opposite sex couples, entered into as a matter of faith and submission to Christ.

And this makes the Knights and their members "a danger" ... in Crazy Mazie's mind.

But the Knights never killed over one hundred ten thousand Americans, nor wounded another two hundred fifty thousand.

The Japanese did.

And using the Crazy Mazie theory, it's time for Mazie to repudiate her heritage!
