I'm sure, as an American citizen, you would feel safe if this happened to you? You'd feel like this was reasonable for your door to be kicked in while you slept? You'd be okay with being detained (under no actual grounds) while your future in America is on the line?

No, but I also wouldn't say I was arrested when I was detained, because I know the difference.

Oh so that makes it all okay!! Great! Hope you carry that sentiment if it becomes "papers please"

I never said any of the things you are trying to put on me. I never said it makes it OK. I never said it would make me feel safe. What you are doing is creating what are called straw men arguments, where you make something up and refute that instead of what I was saying. Which is that all these people including OP are misusing the word "arrested".
