Is the US seriously considering making Muslim internment camps base on the model of Japanese Internment Camps of WW2?

Carl Higbie introduced this goal for a Trump presidency.

He is a Trump surrogate and the spokesperson for a super PAC.

He shared this with Megan Kelly's Fox News Show on Fox Network. She was visibly taken aback.

What have we learned from history?
George Takai of Star Trek called it one of our country's shame and that Ronald Reagan apologized to Japan for the incarceration of innocent people and bypassing the Justice Sustem of the Unoted States.

I wasn't really taking the "Whiting" of America seriously but this is embarrassing for our country.
This bypasses constitutional rights of citizens of the US?
How could this possibly be defended?

actually according to the washington post he was only talking about a registry of alll immigrants and visitors, with fingerprinting and interrogations for some and said that the Japanese internment caps set a precedent.

Did it alarm you?

well the registry etc was done for several years after 9/11. (also in article) and was stopped due to outcries of civil rights abuses. i assume the same will happen

@ladycae: I do not find a registry of those of the Muslim Faith to be constitutional. This is one level above Law Enforcement profiling.

i agree with you. but evidently the patriot act made it possible.

@ladycae: I am vehemently opposed to this religious registration. Trump has no mandate from the people.

actually like it or not he does. he was elected in a stunning landslide. however now people need to live in trump world. and i think the majority of them may not like what they created.

@ladycae: I didn't see a landslide at all.
He didn't even win the popular vote.

if this election was a "landslide" the term has no meaning. Hillary has a bigger popular vote edge than JFK did over Nixon and Nixon did over Humphrey. If you don't know what either of those elections meant, you have no business commenting.
