    What are your favorite cop/criminal shows?

    My favorite cop show is The Mentalist, but I can't really say I've watched any other cop shows. I was busy one day, flicking through TV channels, when I stopped on a lesser known channel, and it had The Mentalist on. It seemed interesting, so I thought I don't have anything better to do or...

    Speed limit

    I don't know the speed in imperial measurement, but I know it in metric, for Romania, at the least. If I recall correctly, it's 10 kilometers per hour above the imposed speed limit.

    What is your line of work?

    I am a part-time writer and a part-time programmer. I do these two things to make a bit of pocket money, and as I am currently a student and I've got many school years ahead of me, I figured I should save some cash.

    Disgusted with the News

    We live in a world where journalism has been bastardized - all it means now is getting to the crime scene as quickly as possible so you can shoot an article from there before someone else does. It is a disgusting practice - cashing in on dead people. Crime has always been everywhere on Earth...

    What sort of experiences have you had with police?

    I've only had positive encounters with police. All the police officers I've had to deal with are generally laid-back guys, really friendly and understanding.

    Have You Ever Seen Someone Do Something Incredibly Stupid In Front Of A Cop?

    Yeah, my mother suddenly gets on panic mode whenever she sees a cop while driving. She got her driver's license this year so she's still new to driving and she kinda sucks at it. Anyways, one time, we were at an intersection and she stops the engine right when driving through it. At this time, a...

    Can you speak other languages?

    Yes, English and German. My native language is Romanian, and I started learning English at the age of 4. I've only started learning German fairly recently, and I find it really hard.

    Have there been many officers killed in the line of duty in your town?

    Nope, things are pretty tame here in Romania; officers don't do a lot of stuff, hell, many of them don't have guns on them.

    Have you ever mentored someone?

    Yeah, I have mentored a few classmates that were pretty bad at English and Maths. I did it for free, because they REALLY needed mentoring, so I thought I should be a good guy and help them. In the end, they passed the class.

    Coffee or Tea?

    For me, there is no contest. I HATE coffee (I like the smell, but I'd rather drink pee than coffee) and I LOVE tea. I especially love mint tea with juuuust a bit of honey added.

    Wife/husband breaking the law

    I think most people's reaction (mine too) would be to sit them down and have a long talk, followed by additional help (like a psychologist) if needed.

    The death penalty for evil crimes

    I think that death penalty is a delicate subject, and I think that your idea is very good. Having a list of specific actions needed for death penalty is fair. I also think that in the cases of people that will get locked up for life, they should be given a choice -- either live your life in jail...

    Would you be worried about job security?

    Especially in my country, where we don't get any threats at all, I wouldn't feel worried about job security. I think that in a country like the USA, you should be worried, but then again, in OP's case, there's nothing he can do.

    Police survalience/presence online

    Well, I guess it would be natural that the police would surveillance the Internet, but I feel pretty chill with it, because I don't think I pose a threat to any nation's security. I am just a man, not a terrorist. It's crazy how fast they can act, though. Once, a girl said on Twitter, as a...

    Fuzz Buster

    In my country, people have this kind of device too, but most of them stopped using these because they were illegal. Also, to combat this, the police got some new kind of radars, undetectable.

    What helps you sleep at night?

    I don't have a special method of going to sleep, because I struggle with it too. I should find one, however, because lately I haven't been sleeping enough, because once I get into bed I think about stupid things instead of sleeping.

    Device that allows police to hear you inside your house

    Hmm, I have never even heard of such a device, but it certainly does sound interesting. Have you tried asking friends if they know any details about it? I have a friend who's a police officer, but he said he hasn't heard of this kind of device either.

    Favorite movie quote

    My favorite quote ever is "HEREEEEEEEEEEEEEE'S JOHNNYYYYYYYY" from The Shining. That quote was so BAD, in fact, the whole movie was such a BAD adaptation of the book, that it would've done better if it would've been marketed as a comedy.

    Greatest Investment that paid off handsomely

    Invested in Steam trading. For those of you that do not know, Steam is a digital video game distribution service, and it has a trading market, where you can sell games for virtual goods, which you can make a handsome profit off. Not only did I get hundreds of games with a 5$ investment, but I...

    Has anyone in your family ever been police officer?

    No, but a really close family friend is a police chief, and he's an awesome guy. I don't meet many police officers, but I hope they're as cool as that guy.
