A bizarre airport encounter is making the rounds online after footage showed a man repeatedly refusing to answer questions from officers — while insisting, “I don’t ask questions.”
According to the clip, police were called after reports of a man allegedly “screaming at people over at Tootsie’s” inside the terminal. When officers approached, things quickly got awkward.
“Let me see your ID,” one officer says. “I don’t answer questions,” the man replies.
Even after being told he wasn’t free to leave, the passenger wouldn’t provide details or cooperate beyond asking to speak with a supervisor. Officers remained mostly calm, but the tension was palpable as they tried to confirm his identity and verify his boarding pass.
Eventually, the situation appeared to de-escalate. The man was reportedly cleared to catch his flight — though not before giving a lengthy explanation about flight changes, hurricane delays, and gate confusion.
The video’s gone viral for its mix of legal posturing and awkward misunderstandings, with viewers split between calling the man a “sovereign citizen type” and others arguing he was just standing up for his rights.
“Bro thought he was in a TikTok debate instead of an airport,” one user joked. Another wrote: “He wasn’t wrong to ask for a supervisor. He was just… dramatic about it.”
