- sieabahlpark 7y agoWhen you take a polygraph you sign a document saying not to spread the actual questions asked. Specifically he's talking about the counter intelligence portion which is 4 questions centralized around things terrorists would do.
- noob_slayer 7y agoHmm, if this is in connection with the US government, that would be a violation of Title 18 US Code 1001.

'Terrorist Foiled' sounds better than 'Delusional Idiot Entrapped', especially when taxpayers are footing the bill.

The Intercept has a long-running series documenting the Security State prosecuting people for terrorism, who never were terorrists -- many are mentally ill people given plots and weapons by the FBI: https://theintercept.com/2017/09/03/the-fbi-pressured-a-lonely-young-man-into-a-bomb-plot-he-tried-to-back-out-now-hes-serving-life-in-prison/ https://theintercept.com/2017/09/03/the-fbi-pressured-a-lone...

- mrguyorama 7y agoThe legal requirements for entrapment are quite forgiving
- keiru 7y ago"identify" is a tricky word, because you might not think of yourself as an X, but you might see how someone might call you an X. Also, some terrorists likely do, some maybe not.
