The government feared the japanese americans could not be trusted
the revolutionary could have been avoided if the colonies would have approved the Albany plan of union proposed by Benjamen Franklin which states that the colonies should unite and form a army. if we passed it Brittan wouldn't have sent troops here so we would not be taxed for the soldiers for the French and Indian war therefore the events leading up to the American revolution also the revolution itself would have never happened. also if Britain had given westminster respresentation to the colonies it would have been avoided

If the british was able to accept some ideas of the colonies, and a little more opened minded to the colonists, the war could of been avoided.
Japanese Internment camps were never a necessity. Based on a few Japanese people who hid a Japanese pilot, the entire population of Japanese Americans were convicted without a jury. Yet, Japanese Americans still continued to join the army, and go to fight for their country while their families were forced to live in internment camps. Historians agree this was a very dark time in American history.
The U.S. sent Japanese Americans to Internment camps, right after Pearl Harbor, so they could keep an eye on them.

Some punishments in the Japanese internment camps included confinement in isolation cells, loss of privileges such as visitation rights and access to amenities, physical abuse by guards, and forced labor assignments. Additionally, families could be separated as a form of punishment.
Japanese and Japanese Americans living on the US west coast were placed in internment camps on the claim that spies and sabatouers could be hiding among them. Since Japanese and Japanese Americans living in Hawaii and in the US east of the Mississippi were not forced into camps, and since no American citizens of German or Italian descent were placed in internment camps, the actual reason is more likely related to racial stereotypes and anti-Japanese hysteria.Read more: Why_were_Internment_camps_set_up_for_Japanese_Americans
what does that mean?? internment camps were used in the US in the WWII time period for Japanese people because of the attack on peral harbor. The houses were called barracks, they were mostly makeshift and could house 3 to 5 families at a time.
Of course they couldn't. Not only were the camps in the middle of nowhere, but they were surrounded by gates with barbed wire on top, and guards. It was pretty much a concentration camp without the killing. Most of the time.
because we thought that they could have been spy's so we held them there until we figured out what to do.
The internment camps were established to limit communication between Japanese-Americans and Japan due to a condern that the planning of the attack on Pearl Harbor could lead to a direct attack on the US mainland. There was no difinite connection that someone within the US was or was not involved in the planning of the attack.
I think you are referring to the WWII Japanese internment camps. After Pearl Harbor, it was thought that Japanese-American citizens could not be trusted, so they were rounded up and forced to live at various "camps" around the U.S. until the war was over. See the Related Links below.
During World War II, anti-Japanese sentiment was high in the United States. Many Americans feared that these Japanese-Americans were spies for Japan. Everyone was afraid after the Japanese strike on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Most of the population believed that the Japanese-Americans could send inside information to the Japanese and allow for another attack on United States soil. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 to sent the Japanese to the camps. However, the Japanese weren't the only ones to be sent to Internment Camps by the United States. Some German-Americans and Italian-Americans were also sent to camps.
The racist Americans of the 1940s realized they could not put all the Italians and Germans into internment camps to weed out spies. They would have had to put half of New York City citizens into internment camps. There were millions of them in the US at that time as there are now too. There were not as many Japanese so they put them into the camps illlegally.
