You can't, however, take photos or video record such dealings.
What part of the Constitution says you can make an audio, but not a video recording?

Back to the OP's issue. Can you give an example of how the person at immigratiomn was "abusive"?

Finally, speaking of LHR. I am an overweight, 50 year old American. LHR is the only place I have been stopped by an automatic weapon toting security force, while simply walking toward my gate.
