Folks, here is another late-breaking news story that further proves the polygraph is garbage.

Joshua Myers sentenced to five years in prison for child sex crimes

Now read the first paragraph of this article:

WASHINGTON - An assistant principal who pleaded guilty to receiving child pornography is "enormously ashamed," and "has lost everything that he values" but passed a lie detector test showing he never sexually abused any minors....Myers subjected himself to a lie detector test administered by a retired FBI polygrapher.

So a pedophile can pass a poly, that means you can too!  LOL.  I also passed a federal agency's poly, and I lied.  They were like:  "Have you ever committed a crime for which you weren't caught?".  And I replied, "no".  LIE!  I've done so many petty crimes including paying for prostitutes, petty theft, some cyber crimes, but was never caught. I just followed instructions, got on my polygrapher's good side, employed a few mental countermeasures, didn't confess to anything, dismissed the bullspit interrogation tactics, and presto, I passed!

Poly is a joke.  Please get rid of this stupid machine.
