Hi, thank you for reply as well.cocoichi wrote:
That would be promising if Japan worked its law system on precedents. It doesn't.
So, you mean: everybody ISN'T equal before the law?

I can't comment on your situation, but I do want to point out that immigration has been absolutely fair to me, even though my situation had no real precedent. They requested extra information but as soon as I gave them reasonable answers to their reasonable questions they granted my visa.
The people at the desks have all been exceptionally friendly and helpful.
I don't think it's fair to characterize them the way you have. They are people doing a job and, quite frankly, not one with much appreciation.
Am I asking you too much, if I you read, at least partially tread?Hello Hope & Faith,
I have to ask: if you find the Japanese so racist and discriminatory, why are you so keen to get back here and make a life for yourself? Would you not be much happier to be in a society that is more familiar to you?
You should read this book.
It's very interesting.
Embedded Racism: Japan's Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination (by Dr. Debito ARUDOU). (Lexington Books, 2015)

Coz I have repeated it, over and over... I just say it's about my fiancée's situation...
Thank you so much for your post and concern, regarding my case.
This. You have already been banned for life... if you try to break the law before exhausting all legal means of getting back in, you risk consequences more severe than getting turned around at the airport. Do you know what those consequences might be for trying to defraud immigration? This horror story is from a journalist who didn't even commit a crime.Trying to sneak in on a separate passport or nationality strikes me as a terrible idea. If you're caught, you'll ruin whatever small chance you might have to reverse your banning. Even if you don't get caught, you'll be looking over your shoulder all the time, wondering when you will be. I don't believe a competent lawyer would endorse such a scheme.
There may be some procedure or means of petitioning a court to reverse your ban. See a REAL lawyer for REAL advice.

1. Marry that girl. You'll be on better ground for claiming leniency if she's not a mere girlfriend to you. A wife gives more legitimacy to the claim. Looked at more romantically, why let Japanese immigration stand in the way of true love?
2. Go off and live with that girl in some other country for at least a few years. Her parents are probably young enough to not need her help for a while yet. Then, after you've lived together long enough to show that the marriage is not a sham, apply for admission to Japan.
3. Keep your record clean for those same years. Learn other ways to assert your self-respect than by punching people.
4. Lose the attitude. This was YOUR fault, YOUR mistake. You would have had the same thing happen to you in a US court. What you don't seem to grasp is that one crime (the police officers assaulting you) does not excuse another (your punching the officer). In US law you could be excused if you could show you were in fear of your life or severe bodily harm. You probably missed your chance to argue this defense, though. In no jurisdiction I know of are you allowed to punch someone to preserve your self-respect. Until you recognize your own responsibility you're not likely to convince anyone else you're repentant.
5. In your petition or hearing, state that you were young and drunk and afraid, and apologize profusely. If you've since quit drinking, all the better, and be sure to say so.
I would be very surprised if there is not some legal procedure that can be used to petition for getting that ban order rescinded. The problem is setting up the facts so that you have a chance to win.
Thanks to you,too!
This. You have already been banned for life... / .... This horror story is from a journalist who didn't even commit a crime.
A already stated that I decided to quit that idea. Thanks.
Yes, I read about that "horror story", but... working illegally for more than a year without paying taxes, isn't a crime?
About the rest, you can read above.
.....
Your narrative has shown that you aren't terribly repentant for the crime you committed, except for the effect it's had on you
This point made me to meditate a lot....
That implies that my shrink is right. He said I might be affected by a "Narcissistic personality disorder", but we are still working on that...
Thank You!
Allow me to apologize to you, Hope&Faith. I was trying to make a point, but it was not particularly helpful to your situation. Just to clarify, I agree with the others who are discouraging you from exploiting a possible security loophole by using a different passport. I also agree with the idea of finding a lawyer who can eventually help get your ban overturned. Good luck.
f I was being shoved around by four laughing, insulting cops, I would be afraid. I mean, who are you going to call on the cops? You can call the cops on anyone else who's committing a crime against you, but what are you going to do when it's the cops who are committing the crime? I'm sure I'd feel fear, maybe enough to strike out.
I suggest to you that what you felt more than anger was fear. Think about it for a while, then go see a good lawyer.
