Then we should sanction the whole state for minor infractions of one officer.

Municipal bond offerings are currently exempt from SEC registration and disclosures, we can get the federal government to change that upon evidence of small infractions and force an extremely high level of disclosures such as policing statistics for the next 10 years if the municipality wants to raise capital.

This beats activist's state-level FOIA requests.

It doesn't harm the ability of an officer to make split second decisions and get home safely, which is usually their argument against any proposal.

It doesn't require a whole civil suit or criminal suit for anything to happen.

Just gets the message across that actions have consequences. It lets them run out of excuses so their real thoughts can be made as clear as day.

There are sanctions but I think it doesn't practically work because the government is responsible for punishing his people.

I think we need private police, subject to the same law as anyone else, and third party arbitration in private courts when something happens.
