>Aha. So being forced to wait in an office while they arrange for your return flight home is indeed an arrest.
Not so sure about that. Are they detaining you, or simply not allowing you to enter the US?
Let's say you walk up to my front door, and I won't let you into my house. Would I be 'arresting' you on my front step by not granting you entry into my home?

No, but it'd be an arrest if you told me that I couldn't leave your porch unless you let me in or forced me out.
