Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
I don't know what you mean by "watching me." If you are the subject of an investigation, then yes, the police will definitely talk to other people about you.
I'm glad I could help. Best of luck!
State laws vary, but generally a police officer, on- or off-duty, can arrest someone if they have probable cause to believe a crime has been committed.
I can't speak to the specifics of Ohio law, but generally yes and yes.

Can you give guests room upgrades at your sole discretion?

Have you ever had to disarm an attacker?

Is there THAT much difference in quality between the fish served at mid-range vs high-end places?
I saw no evidence that indicated George Zimmerman committed any crime, and yes, the jury's duty was to acquit.
Frankly, it is my belief that this was a case of wrongful prosecution for political gains, and testimony from at least one employee within the State Attorney's office stating the prosecution was withholding evidence from the defense team certainly affirms that belief.
Checking the California Dept of Fish and Wildlife website, it looks like anyone 16 or older must have a license to fish. I did not see a reference to ages younger than 16. In the sane world, a 13 year old should be able to fish by him or herself. California, however, has some very bizarre views on what people should be allowed to do. So, I'd recommend contacting them directly.

I'm not sure what you mean by "rural area of the city." If you mean out in the country somewhere, how far would you expect to drive to find a lit area? Don't expect a trooper to follow you for miles just to look for a well lit area.
If you are in a city, you should probably pull into a parking lot/gas station whenever available to begin with.
You can ask an officer anything, but he/she doesn't have to agree to honor your request.
