Surely, Karl, you mean that a memorial to Japanese military people would not be appropriate at Pearl Harbor, rather than a memorial to Americans of Japanese descent. A Freudian slip? After all, several Japanese American WWII units received the Congressional Gold Medal, and 22 individuals received the Congressional Medal of Honor. Surely, a monument to those units and individuals could legitimately (and morally) be placed anywhere in Honolulu. Civicsman

I knew you meant what you said, Karl. I just wanted you to say it clearly so that there would be no way to weasel out of it later.
You would oppose a monument at Pearl Harbor for Americans who are WWII veterans and were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, simply because they are of Japanese descent.
Thank you for making your personal perspective so abundantly clear.
