The reason: Guards thought he might pose a threat because they believed he had been looking at them in a suspicious way.
Probably thought they were some TSOs that he had just seen at the airport.

I have no doubt about the records keeping either. I'm taking the advice of another recent thread and demanding a privacy act sheet if they ever try to photocopy my ID.
Then again, I've stopped flying, but if it happens at a subway or something, I'll keep it in mind.
The Mall of America is getting a call and possibly a letter from me. It's one of those destinations that are on my list to visit someday, but no more!
As a former resident of Minnesota, let me make it clear that there is absolutely, positively no reason to go to the MoA, unless you like scuzzy, oversized malls (Okay, the Rybnicki cheese store is good.). Yes, there is an overpriced "amusement park (a few rides)" in the middle, but other than that, it is like every other mall in America. It has all the same stores, just a couple of them. All the same food court restaurants. All the same sticky bathrooms. It has absolutely nothing going for it except that it is big.
