I definitely understand what you are trying to say, but the point is being missed all the way round.
No, I wouldn't bring a Japanese game show crew to Jerome, Arkansas and have them compete at the site of the Japanese internment camp here in Ashley County.
I wouldn't bring that same group to visit the statue you mention and then get them to sing anti-Japanese songs in English. That would not be right.
I feel very sad for you if you don't understand the insult their show's producers were engaging in. It was done to insult veterans here.
