If you give polygraphs, then you are an abuser.  It goes with the territory.  Those asshole's faces are burned into my memory.

Can you handle the truth?

If you can't take unfavorable actions against someone based solely on the crappity smacking thing, why give it at all?

I'll tell you why, so you can use that psychological billy club that Doug talks about.

It's a crappity smacking sham and innocent Americans are having their individual rights violated.

I've seen enough of your posts on here to realize that you are a polygraph proponent.  If you're not, I apologize for associating you with those abusers.  If you are, I hope you realize someday that what you are doing ruins innocent lives.

You are absolutely correct, rage is a component of PTSD, as are nightmares, insomnia and depression.

OK – then let me ask you this. Do you think they pass the "reasonableness test"?

Bayesian probability establishes a prior probability (a-priori), which is then updated to a posterior probability with the availment of new data. So it depends on how that a-priori is established. But, your perspective is more intuitive when you say that there is no physiological response indicative of deception - no Pinocchio's Nose response. Moreover, you are correct that the polygraph instrument measures mostly fear (sympathetic arousal). When people lie, there indeed are physiological reactions that can be measured with the polygraph instrument. But, other psycho-physiological mechanisms (guilt, anxiety, vivid memories or just plain mental work) can precipitate similar, if not identical, activity. The David exists in every slab of marble, the genius lies in removing the unwanted particles.

So one has to wonder, what percentage of polygraph operators are a Michelangelo?

Anyone wanna take a SWAG?

Regardless, that means the "test" is an art -- not a science.

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the absence of complaints on this forum about EPPA polygraph examinations.

I'll respond as follows: Let's all remember what my prosecution was really all about – according to John R  Swartz, one of the polygraph examiner's from the CBP/IA, they came after me for "protesting the loudest and longest against the polygraph". I think the hatred that I seem to engender in the polygraph community stems from the fact that I am telling the truth and they are lying - as the old saying goes – "Above all else the devil hates to be mocked". And I have spent 40 years mocking these polygraph thugs and exposing their evil deeds so it is no wonder they want to destroy me. But the fact of the matter is: I'm right  and they are wrong.  But as Voltaire once said "It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong".  So these polygraph thugs can manufacture a crime and bring me up on bogus charges and throw me in prison, but that still does not make them right and it still does not make me wrong.  Quickfix, you and your cohorts in the polygraph industry are evil, you are abusing hundreds of thousands of innocent people, and you will soon be exposed for what you are - traitors, frauds and charlatans.  And I feel certain that history will treat me much kinder than it does you.

You can rant and rave all you like, but the fact remains I am right and you are wrong. I am telling the truth about the so-called "lie detector", and you are lying.
