In May 1917, the town of Hot Springs had a population of 650 but soon the number would increase with the addition of almost 2200 German prisoners. (This would be the largest World War I prison camp in the United States at the time.)

German Americans are the largest ethnic group in the US. Approximately 60 million Americans claim German ancestry. German American loyalty to America's promise of freedom traces back to the Revolutionary War. Nevertheless, during World War II, the US government and many Americans viewed German Americans and others of "enemy ancestry" as potentially dangerous, particularly recent immigrants. The Japanese American WWII experience well known. Few, however, know of the European American WWII experience, particularly that of the German Americans. The government used many interrelated, constitutionally questionable methods to control those of enemy ancestry, including internment, individual and group exclusion from military zones, internee exchanges for Americans held in Germany, deportation, "alien enemy" registration requirements, travel restrictions and property confiscation. The human cost of these civil liberties violations was high. Families were disrupted, reputations destroyed, homes and belongings lost. Meanwhile, untold numbers of German Americans fought for freedom around the world, including their ancestral homelands. Some were the immediate relatives of those subject to oppressive restrictions on the home front. Pressured by the US, many Latin American governments arrested at least 4,050 German Latin Americans. Most were shipped in dark boat holds to the United States and interned. At least 2000 Germans, German Americans and Latin Americans were later exchanged for Americans and Latin Americans held in Germany. Some allege that internees were captured to use as exchange bait.

I hear you.

Fred was American. Born in California. That was the point.

You don't want humans or Americans. You want robots and kangaroo courts deciding just how American someone is-like this one. None of what you wrote had anything to do with multiculturalism in the class room.

No, I want a cohesive society, enhanced by our cultural differences, not separated by them.
I love hummus, pizza and spanikopita but American society gains very little from studying Arab, Italian and Greek cultures except in a historical sense.

You don't want a cohesive society. You want robots.

No, dear. I want Americans.

They are Americans and we take jobs that send us to other countries.

They are not Americans until they drop the hyphenated bullshit.

Yes. We take jobs in other countries, but if we go to Japan, we don't expect the Japanese to adjust their society to our whims.

I guess since you say so.

More Kansas Schools To Close Early For Lack Of Funds

More of them brilliant republican policies! Help the rich to hell with the poor

The superintendent of the Shawnee Heights Unified School District, Martin Stessman, told the Capital-Journal he doesn't intend for the shortened school year to become permanent, and he noted that the low number of snow days this past winter meant that his schools had some wiggle room when it came to a closing date. According tominutes from a meeting of the Shawnee Heights School Board in early February, Brownback's cuts cost the district $190,000 for the 2014-2015 school year, forcing it to freeze classroom and library spending and shorten the school year by two days.

The Amish only go as far as the 8th grade yet they seem to get along just fine in Life. They run businesses, farms, raise large families, solve problems.

They've NEVER rioted and burned their own communities down.

Every one of them you talk to are polite and knowledgeable.

No tattoos, no nose rings or wild hair. I have a lot of respect for them.

The average person who receives 12 years of U S Government Education can barely function in Life.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You could double the education fund or cut it in half and you'd probably get the same result: No Change.

Even liberal arts schools don't seem to teach how to make hemp string, cord and rope, from hemp fiber; even if Only to weave baskets.

The reason why that is my friend is because if the US citizen actually knew what's up instead of knowing who stars in their fantasy league things would get done in this country. We would have real leaders instead of Social Justice Warriors and other dumbasses who lead the country right now
