What's with LAX? - Just a reminder, which I have posted in the past. When attempting to file a complaint the supervisor asked the TSO what the problem was, and she claimed I physically threateningly grabbed her, which resulted in an arrest for battery. In the end the county attorney's office could find no basis for pursuing the charge even armed with video/photo information provided by the TSA.

And yes I tried to get the video/photos, but was advised that it couldn't be released as it would compromise national security, and my 6+ year old request under the freedom of information act still goes unanswered.

Why requesting a complaint form and the name or ID of a TSO requires calling the TSO over, and results in a battery charge at the suggestion of the supervisor smacks of a "set up" to me. And yes I know even paranoid people have enemies.

I would opine that if we collected all extra ordinary experiences LAX would rank near the top of the list. I suspect it is either a written or unwritten policy of retribution. Even my LA attorney has an office policy that no one uses LAX because of the problems they have experienced. Presumably of a less criminal nature.
