Video of a heated exchange between a 16-year-old boy and a TSA supervisor is making its way around the internet.
In the video, the boy pulls out his cellphone camera to record the TSA worker patting down his father at a security checkpoint inside Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport.
The boy is quietly recording the pat down when the agent sees him and immediately calls a New Orleans police officer over and asks for the boy to be removed. The man being patted down says, "That's my son, just so that you know."
The boy quickly reminds the agent that the TSA's own website says that recording security pat downs is legal and allowed but the agent says he doesn't care.
The police officer walks up and is seen monitoring the situation, but he never does anything to the teen.
