EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt’s security team decided last year he should fly first class to avoid confrontations with angry individuals on planes and in airports, an agency official said Thursday as EPA sought to explain the chief’s penchant for pricey travel.Awwww. Poooor baabeeee.
“He was approached in the airport numerous times, to the point of profanities being yelled at him and so forth,” Henry Barnet, director of the agency's Office of Criminal Enforcement, told POLITICO.
That doesn't pass the "so, what" test. He's going to be on the same airplane and in the same terminal as the rest of the public. People are still going to see him, recognize him and yell at him.
What a fucking snowflake.

Not to mention that, on many planes, first class is the section passed by the most people.
However, we do need to be sensitive to what may well be a real issue. I suggest that from now on Scott Pruitt only fly in seats at the very back of the plane. He can get priority boarding so he doesn't have to pass any occupied seats and on arrival he'll automatically be the last to disembark. This will save him from the hassle of interacting with all but the slowest and most infirm citizens. As a bonus these seats will invariably be in coach and therefore help to reduce the federal deficit. It's a win-win for everyone!
Nice idea bmq215 but why not take it one step further and make him a protective crate he can ride in, safely stowed with the other animals and the luggage?
montag, and God forbid the crew forget the “dead dog”switch...
If he didn't want anyone to yell "you're fucking up the environment" at him, couldn't he have, you know, not fucked up the environment?
