        Decency went out the door with Japanese soldiers ... but that was 4 generations ago. Why the statues now? Only to feminize the population?

        I support this memorial and hope we learn of a largely unknown #Atrocity against #AsianWomen. The #haters opposed to it R #ignorant #bigots.

        Ok. Now it would be wise to erect a monument honoring US citizens of Japanese origin mistreated in confinement camps during WW2

        Interestingly enough, until the 1990s the term "comfort women" was used in reference to the women who were comforting Americans.
