You want to know what their motivation was, Pearl Harbor.

I will be sure to censure myself here, and make sure I'm not being too anti-American. I'm just
going off the way I feel about most Americans. You were probably defending most Americans, but I'm glad you can open your eyes and realize that maybe not every American is much like the ones you've met, and Sweet Nothing you're right the South is generally very creepy. By the way, I hope your not defending their actions, or that would be incredibly irrational discrimination, unless they did research before the game, and determined that not only were these Japanese kids somehow related to those who perpetrated the attacks at Pearl Harbor, but also were very proud of them, and would further encourage that type of behavior.
It just goes to show how blind and irrational some Americans hatred of other countries is.
