Let me know if they do record sound and a clip of it. Thanks.
It would be nearly impossible to do an audio recording of a TSA checkpoint and pick out individual conversations over the ambient noise level. That's why it's so important for us to record any confrontations with them on out own video equipment. The only way for the airport camera operators to do this would be to use one of those large parabolic reflectors you see at football games to pick out a single conversation.
