>"filming minors without parental consent"? I'll bet it's massive. Or made up, either one.

The latter. It is not illegal to records or photography minors, in of itself, in the USA.

In PUBLIC. The town or school may not have the same policy while on school property.

Still not illegal. They can forbid recording or photography but at best they can charge you with trespassing if you refuse to follow their rules to be on site. The actual recording and photography of minors in places where there is no expectation of privacy is not illegal and they can not do anything to make you destroy or delete your footage or photos.
