The days of "professional courtesy" are over, or should be. Chief Esserman should be screened like the rest of us. Besides, he would be more likely to be in possession of firearms and if for some crazy reason ( yes, there are plenty of crazy events on flights-see the JetBlue lawsuit over toilets)an event happened IF there actually was an air marshall on the flight, the Chief could accidentally get himself killed or others injured due to the breach of security. The airport police officer who attempted the breach of security should be severely punished and/or possibly dismissed for attempting such an act. If TSA is going to do their job, they need to be allowed to do it!
