Nonaganerian lifelong statesmen generally don't present a threat to America's borders. But apparently, the Arizona police would rather be safe than sorry. On Thursday, officials detained Raul Castro, former Arizona governor and U.S. ambassador to Argentina, for 30 minutes in the triple-digit desert heat—just a day after he underwent heart treatment. Castro was removed from his car and taken to a sweltering tent for inspection after his pacemaker apparently set off a radiation sensor on the highway, about 24 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. "I don’t condemn them for doing a job,” said Castro, “but once I was identified and I was 96 years of age and told them I had medical treatment the day before, I expected a little more."
