A 16-year-old boy was prohibited from video-recording his own pat-down at New Orleans airport — something explicitly allowed by the TSA — and when he recorded his father's pat-down, the TSA supervisor at his checkpoint called the police on him.
After being denied the right to film the process of being patted down by a TSA supervisor at MSY even after I politely asked, I went back and had a talk with the supervisor that refused to let me film him. He then proceeded to call the police on me unlawfully even after I explained to him that it clearly states on the TSA website that you are allowed to film the TSA agents as long as you don't film their monitors and are not interfering with their process, which I wasn't. He was the one who exploded on me initially (before I began recording) just because I wanted to film him which is completely legal. Thanks for watching.
