Well, I lived through that period. I lived on the West Coast of the US, in Oregon, and don't have a built in hatred of anything American, so I can believe less hate propaganda about the U.S.

So, therefore, I don't believe that any children were rounded up at gunpoint in the U.S.

The testimony of many Japanese families removed from their homes in
the 1940's was not as pleasant as what you describe.  The historical
record contains many adverse conditions, including some from
children who were rounded up at gunpoint.

They were

leave. They
weren't rounded up at gunpoint. They went peacefully, and after
the war,
returned to resume their business.

In the family, there were some teen agers whom I admired a great
deal. I was
sorry to see them go. The old people didn't speak English. Now
some of my
friends have parents who speak Spanish, but not English.
