All four sentences below help make the claim that relocation centers were primarily intended to protect America from Japanese-Americans, not to protect Japanese-Americans from Americans. Which of the following is the STRONGEST piece of evidence to support this idea?

(A) The purpose of the order was to prevent espionage and also to protect people of Japanese descent from Americans who might take their anger over Pearl Harbor out on them.

(B) Within weeks, all persons of Japanese ancestry — whether citizens or not, young or old, rich or poor — were ordered to assembly centers near their homes.

(C) Their home for the next several months was a cowshed at a fairgrounds or a horse stall at a racetrack. Next, they were taken to permanent relocation centers many miles from the ocean, often in remote and desolate locales.

(D) When told that the Japanese were put in those camps for their own protection, the person said, "If we were put there for our protection, why were the guns at the guard towers pointed inward, instead of outward?"
