Pubic (Crab) Lice
On WorldNetDaily, Bob Unruh explains the potential for TSA agents to spread viruses, bacteria, parasites, etc. from passenger to passenger via the rubber gloves they wear during searches. The TSA wears those rubber gloves to protect themselves from contaminants on the passengers. Those gloves are not there for your protection. The TSA disregards public health and safety by not changing those gloves between searches.
Since these TSA agents are digging around in people's crotches, hygiene is of incredible importance. People's crotch areas can contain all sorts of nasty things: fecal matter, urine, semen, lice, bed bugs, fungus, etc. Underwear and other clothing can harbor all of these things and more. If a person happens to have poor personal hygiene, the contamination levels can be horrific, especially if a person has been travelling for many hours and has not had access to clean clothes and a shower.
Sure you may be a clean person, but what about the dozens of people who were in line before you? Were they all perfectly clean? The TSA agent sticking his hands into your waistband and reaching into your crotch to fondle your genitals through your clothes may be wearing gloves that have come in contact with the same places on numerous people. Do you want the contaminants of dozens of crotches transferred to your crotch?
Here is an even worse thought. After a thorough frisking from the TSA, you are likely to adjust your clothes. When your hands touch your contaminated clothes, your hands become contaminated. If you happen to accidentally touch your face before washing your hands, you could be spreading the contaminants of many crotches to your face. All sorts of illnesses and infections could spread in this manner.
If the TSA cared about the public, they would be changing rubber gloves before every search, but they do not. When going through your TSA pat down, you have a right to request the TSA agent use a fresh pair of rubber gloves. For the sake of your own health, you should always request fresh gloves.
