You are ignoring the fact that she began filming customs which, in most countries, is a criminal offense. Was the punishment heavy-handed? Absolutely. Was there a little bit male ego involved on the part of the agents? Probably.

All the same, only a fool goes to another country with an improper visa and starts causing a scene at customs when they don't get what they want.
