Well Spiff, since TSA permits airport and TSA employees access to the secure areas without any screening the only meaningful screening that TSA does would be Gate Screening. The primary screening that is done is a total waste of time since contraband can be introduced by other means.
For what's it's worth, TSA is a Total Waste of Time.
But I still want clean gloves!
