I can not tell you why you did not pass your poly, but I will tell you that most of my known false positives have been examiner error. Either I misconstructed a question. made an unwarrented assumption based on my understanding of the case facts. or simply misread the charts. Fortunately most of my mistakes have been rectified by a retest with a different examiner.

I would recommend just ignoring NLG4U. He is incapable of carrying on a rational discussion, and won't answer direct questions.

Sorry, I forgot the rest !!!!
For years they had been victims of scams and non scientific examples on why they could not be counted as equals. I am sure that many of them have been told "you know you simply DON"T get it YOUR way!!
Not by Me, or those with my thinking !!!
I know the comparision is ment to make one think. But.. of course why do that when we have been trained to use the hocus-pocus machine.
There is no Hocus Pocus to human physiology as it is engrained in us all ANS = PNS/SNS . You don't have to reinvent the wheel with each human being. The test if fair and up front with no surpises. That you did not enjoy it or like being a suspect is irrelevant.
If your so called "examiners" met their "test" you, my friend would not be here along with your pro poly possy trying to perpetuate the lie that polys some how detect lies.
I am not a member of any pro poly possy, and am here to speak for myself. When you say "Met Their Test", I can only assume you mean the bait and switch being offered here in regard to detection of countermeasures. I wonder why any group would submit itself to another who reserves the rightt to be both judge and jury, when their minds have already been made up. From what I have read here, all the reasonable people agree that technology only gets better with time, and that research studies over time have show the ability only getting better as the database of experience widens. Such is true of Medicine, Aviation, and perhaps whatever business you find yourself in as well.
The test working well for those comfirmed has nothing to do with the tests ability to dectect truthfull statements. They simply did not react to the questions for whatever reasons.
FOR WHATEVER REASONSIn the case of government hirng, I think they will place their bet on the lower risk person with my tax dollars and the publics , Thank You Very Much !!!! In the case of specific issue crime testing, suspects are persued where the evidence leads, and proper unbiased questions are used in validated formats. They don't have to invent that each time.
Furthermore, I am not looking for a job I have a very successfull business.
I was accused of a crime I had nothing to do with and the machine I was told said that I was being deceptive in some of my answers. Of course I was never told which answers.
Clearly then, from this statement, you write from an incomplete knowledge about the case overall.
Now to you and your ilk that may not be a big deal but to some one like myself, who has been honest all my life. The fact that I was being called a lier weighed heavy on me.
You don't know anything about me to say I'm of "ilk", and I regard the civil rights of everyone a big deal. That it weighed heavy on you or not is not the primary concern here. Your civil rights were NOT violated from what you have written.
Also, I now know that if for any reason I would have to submitt to one of your scam tests again ( not that I would again willingly) the fact that I would have to disclose a previous failed chart pretty much tags me as a lier.
Again, a broad assumption that exists in your mind only. Under circumstances you perhaps can not imagine, you might find yourself going to an Attorney Client Priv. exam in your own best interest, rather than a Police exam out of necessity as are most tests. There are defense attorneys who request such tests you know.
Lastly, You and the poly world DO NOT have the right to use unscientific tests in criminal trials ...wonder why?? And your right to use the in employment is coming to an end too. Soon I hope.
Think again now !!! State by State those decisions are made by the legislatures and case law. New Mexico for example has open admissability in criminal trials, and you know what, the conviction rate is no different than in States that don't have that. Certain federal courts allow for polygraph expert evidence, and much of the time it is to clear someone. You assume the negative each time as if this technology ONLY seeks to convict. You miss half the mission statement or purpose of it all. Did you think nobody EVER passed as Truthful ?
You say "It Don't Make Sense !" . NO !! It makes sense to those who invest the time to understand it all who can make sense of it. Like good men and women who serve their country in Federal capacities or law enforcement, or the pragmatic private sector. They take it very seriously and seek TRUTH, and while that Truth may not be convenient to some, they follow where it leads and act on it. You must own a pet store or something, as you repeat the mantras well that line these posts like a parrot. Nobody here I have read says it is all perfect, but is the best we have, and good men and women do their best with ongoing improvements as time passes. That is the simple Truth. Got It ? Got Truth ?
In the case of government hirng, I think they will place their bet on the lower risk person with my tax dollars and the publics , Thank You Very Much !!!! In the case of specific issue crime testing, suspects are persued where the evidence leads, and proper unbiased questions are used in validated formats. They don't have to invent that each time.

He claimed 30 years of experience so, if it is so that an experienced examiner can best use the poly. He was either a Moron or..... Poly's don't work. I think the later
So we are to believe that this examiner has spent thirty or so years of his / her life performing such tests without any concern for serving the public at all. That he has not obeyed his / her training, and that he/she derives no information from what was clear to them which was reduced to mathamatical information that equated to your being interrogated. That is alot for me / us to swallow. As the radio announcer Paul Harvey used to say. I wonder what is "The Rest of the Story". Did you have your own test done by a private examiner for the benefit of your Defense Attorney or otherwise for yourself ? Someone you could be assured of was unbiased if that is what you felt about the cop.
By the way, courts have upheld that Police are to serve the public in the Macro sense, and not in the singular sense. They may well have viewed interrogating you as what was best for the case / public. It may not be music to your ears, but in fact reality. It sounds from what you wrote there was not otherwise strong enough evidence to make a case at the time against you.

It sounds like you are not even sure if you passed your test for the crime you were accused of. Clearly if you had failed they would have interrogated you. If not, they probably were inconclusive or had you as passing. Sounds to me if it was not the former, and rather the latter, you owe some Examiner some thanks for his / her expertise. That you do or do not like the process is not relevant. They are not there to entertain you.
In regard to employment, keep hoping. Hope is a good thing. Hope defies reality as it is known at the present time. Can you suggest a replacement ? In other words what actual solution do you have which is in fact both affordable and actionable TODAY ? No, Nothing ?
Well then it seems you are reduced to only griping, bitching, grumbling, and complaining; all just negative crap. That you don't like the polygraph, repeat the mantras you see here, is not the same as having a pragmatic solution. There are too many confirmed charts to ignore that the use of the polygraph has been effective, and clearly more than the coin flip you folks suggest here.

You said (Perhaps Ill Considered: "Hey No lie,
Your attack on George is silly. He is not advocating for anyone to lie and get away with it. What I see is he is simply showing the unreliability with this machine and it's operators which I think he has done well.
His personal experiences as well as mone do fuel the need to inform and take action.
Imagine black americans being told that they are destroying the system with their activisim even though they have been wronged.
Instead of attacking the messenger why don't you take the valid information that has been uncovered and maybe come up with a test that accually works."
Perhaps to the reasonable reader on this site your reference to African Americans and the civil rights struggle is a bit much. That struggle effected people who otherwise wanted to be counted as a full American in every aspect of life and to be given "Equal" opportunity.
The Government does not owe you a job. In what jobs it does have, it has the right to screen for the best hiring decision by those tools IT has, and particularly for those jobs with Top Secret, or other clearance levels. You showed up, you were owed nothing, and were not selected as competative overall; of which the polygraph played a part. As previously stated, you assume the variable of being the best qualified which may not be true. Further, attitude carries a great deal in any interview. Certainly we agree that any interviewer asks themselves internally, would I want to work with this guy / gal ?? !!! and, would they fit in well in our structure ?
It is not Burger King, You DON'T get it YOUR way, and your comparison to civil rights for African Americans is degrading to them in all that they have endured.
[highlight]Please tell me why the test works well with those who are otherwise confirmed in their backgrounds as Truthful, but the same questions don't work on YOU / Other posters. It seems the only variable that changed is YOU, your attitude, and personality flaw of defiance to legitimate authority over you. The Examiners have long since met that test and have nothing to prove to you, you are not their equal in the employment world. They have a very good job and an important one, you are merely looking for a job.
