did you ever stop for 3 seconds, set aside your assumptions, and consider the fact that your lack of integrity is what appalled Sergeant1107? I read 2 posts...one where you plan on lying on an LE application. The second post, you berate someone on a false assumption because they gave you some damn good advice. You might want to wait a while longer. It certainly appears that you lack the maturity to be in LE. And before you begin...check my posts...I am DEFINATELY not a polygrapher.

Imagine that! It almost seems as if the polygraph won't be able to tell if I am lying, considering all of these guys spend endless hours on an ANTI polygraph website telling people such as my self not to lie. I am not looking for the opinion of a polygrapher so go find something useful to do with your time. Polygraphy itself is not exactly and "honest" profession now is it?
You might wish to spend a few minutes perusing some or all of my previous posts.
If you had done so before posting you would have known I am not a polygraph examiner.
I am, however, in law enforcement and I believe it to be an honest profession. If you are planning to lie in order to get what you want you will almost certainly get yourself and your co-workers jammed up as a police officer.

I believe that anyone applying for a position of public trust, such as a job in law enforcement, has an ethical obligation to tell the truth.
If you tell the truth and you are disqualified because of your prior theft then apply elsewhere.
If you choose to lie on your application to be a police officer I hope you do not get the job. You are not even out of the gate yet and already you believe that it is acceptable to lie in order to get what you want. That does not bode well for you having an ethical career in law enforcement.

I am scheduled for a polygraph on Monday for a LE position. I have had one in the past at a regular non LE job as a pre employment poly. I passed it even though I had lied about theft. It was a security position so I thought they would reject me based on having stolen something from a mall before. Should I admit to having had a polygraph before or will that make the examiner work harder on me knowing I have had experience with one before? My opinion is that having had one beofre and passed maybe he will assume my truthfulness. Any suggestions? Thanks!
