Police Polygraph tests, Do's & Donts
The polygraph examiner is likely to say #1. Also, when I was polygraphed they specifically said it was *not* a lie detector and was not capable of telling when you’re lying. Because it’s not. It’s a way to measure certain physiological reactions. They were quite explicit on that point. To the OP: Remember that just about nothing on your background will be worse for your chances than lying. Be completely honest and straightforward. If you fall into one of the exceptions, you should probably drop your application entirely.

Arlington police cars in Grand Theft Auto? Department cracks down on use?
This myth needs to die. "I'm not making money from it" is not in any way a defense to a copyright infringement lawsuit under US law. The purpose and character of the use is one of the four statutory fair use factors, and explicitly includes whether the use is for commercial or nonprofit educational usage, but that's just part of one of four factors.

We don't actually have LSPD bikes yet. You're probably seeing Port Police bikes.

PeterUCallouts
For the security guard vehicles, that seems to just let us specify one or more vehicles for a single security company. What I'd like to be able to do is set which security guards can spawn and which vehicles can spawn for each guard. For instance, in GuardPeds.xml, you could have something like: Would that be possible? Also, what callouts does "unmarked car" matter for?

Yet another mass shooting, Texas church
Yeah, I think the gun control debate has run its course.

Yet another mass shooting, Texas church
Actually, the original subject was the shooting in Texas.

Yet another mass shooting, Texas church
Your friend is wrong, incidentally. While the Posse Comitatus act normally forbids the Army or Air Force from enforcing civilian laws in the United States, there's a major exception: it forbids it "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress." A number of federal laws explicitly say that the military can be used to enforce them. More generally, the Insurrection Act broadly allows the military to be deployed in the United States to uphold federal authority, enforce the laws, suppress insurrections and rebellions, etc., if the laws cannot be enforced using normal civilian means. There is no distinction between federalized National Guard troops and regular soldiers; neither can normally be used to enforce the law, and both can be used to suppress insurrections. Since at least 1807, the regular US military has always been authorized to put down armed rebellions when ordered by the President. The only time the National Guard can be used but regular troops can't is when the National Guard is on state duty. To get back to the actual shooting: It looks like the shooter should never have been able to legally buy guns. He had a domestic violence conviction when he was in the Air Force, which means it was illegal for him to own a gun. Sadly, the Air Force apparently didn't enter the conviction into the right databases so it didn't pop up on the background check.

@c13 Is it confirmed that the Las Vegas shooting just had a bump stock and not true full-auto?

Active Shooter and Vehicle mowing down pedestrians in Manhattan today
The death penalty doesn't exist for crimes against the state of New York. That's irrelevant for a federal prosecution, which is for crimes against the United States. Terrorism is normally handled at the federal level. I'll grant that the actual capital crime he's being charged with so far is a bit odd (providing material support to terrorist groups isn't capital, so he's also being charged with causing death by damaging/destroying a motor vehicle used in interstate commerce with reckless disregard for human life), but since the terrorism charge makes it a federal case already I don't see much wrong with charging him with all relevant federal crimes he committed. There's not some specific decision needed to "override the death penalty ban of a state," which isn't something the feds can actually do. There's a decision to charge someone with crimes against the United States and seek a penalty authorized by the laws of the United States. NY law isn't being overridden, it simply doesn't apply in the first place.

Active Shooter and Vehicle mowing down pedestrians in Manhattan today
The US has the death penalty. “Put him to death”doesn’t imply “kill him without trial;” it can easily mean “try him on capital charges and seek the death penalty.” Please don’t take the least charitable interpretation of people’s posts.

I hadn't noticed the fake rivets at first, but I really don't like them. They look dumb and detract from the car.- [REL] Realism Dispatch Enhanced 3.1.1
It only has one livery (police_new2). OpenIV loads vehshare.ytd after policeb.ytd, so it displays the livery copy in vehshare. V does the opposite, so in V it will show up with the SAHP skin in policeb.ytd.- Explain this to me! CHP pulls car over NY/PA Border
Probably was for a movie or something.- "Three Musketeers" Terror gang charged
FYI, the United States Congress disagrees that going to a terrorist camp is worthy of a life sentence. The offense you're generally charged with is "providing material support to terrorism," which has a statutory maximum of 20 years (and a sentencing guideline of 5-6 assuming no criminal history). I'd say the view that "going to a terrorist camp means you should never again be free" is the uncommon one.- "Three Musketeers" Terror gang charged
Yeah. Religious freedom is one of the markers of a non-totalitarian state, as is releasing people at the end of their prison terms (since you're apparently extremely ill-informed: they were released because they were sentenced to 40 months for going to a training camp, and 40 months from 2013 brings you to 2016-17). It sounds like you might prefer North Korea's criminal justice system. In most countries, someone sent to jail gets this thing called a "sentence." The sentence is where the court decides how long they will be jailed for. At the end of the sentence, the person is let out of jail. They were given a sentence of 40 months (over three years). That was in 2013. It's now 2017, so their sentence would have ended.- Regular arming of UK police
Just FYI: French police are armed. Some municipal police are not, but municipal police are mostly ordinance enforcement. Both the National Police and Gendarmerie arm every officer, and the Gendarmerie is literally a component of the French military. You posted a video of Swedish police as a "police should be armed," but Swedish police are also armed. The only three countries in the EU whose cops don't routinely have guns on their belts are the UK (outside of Northern Ireland), the Republic of Ireland, and Norway. Even among those three, Norwegian cops don't have guns on their belts but do have them in their cars.- OpenIV.asi Causing Crash
Have you tried launching with the mods folder present but empty? FYI, you don't actually need to have a copy of the update and x64 folders along with x64e and x64g. You just need to have the RPFs you're actually modifying in the folder. If you plan things right, you can get away with just update.rpf in the mods folder. - Thoughts on the new Toronto police car design?
