Just because you have your "papers in order" doesn't mean there isn't an injustice happening here. Wow, what a selfish argument.
Your argument that "that is how they do it in Japan" holds no water to me for a couple reasons.
There are certain freedoms we enjoy in the US that are not law in Japan. Are you willing to give up all those freedoms so we can live under the same laws as Japan?
No, of course not. Japan is an island country that is practically homogeneous. In practical terms, citizenship is based on race in Japan. That is changing little by little, but it has to do with the race of one's father or mother and where one is born.
Simply put, that isn't how we do it in US. If that's how you think we should do it, then that is fine, but I am shocked you would be willing to give up so many of the freedoms we are guaranteed in the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Oh good grief.
So the Japanese can racial profile because they the majority of the population of Japan is still Japanese. America can't racial profile by law but would be racist if they did.
Funny how they check Japanese passports entering and leaving Japan from Japanese citizens.
Now insert the UK in the place of Japan. Any different. Lots of races there yet the still ask for ID to prove they are there legally. Are they racists too?
Asking for ID to prove to a law official once stopped is nothing new. Race regardless.
How is the state violiting the Constituition and Bill of Rights and then the fed isn't?
