| Police reform ideas | |

| ---------------------------------------- | |
| In case you hadn't noticed, police in the United States are extremely | |
| corrupt... Here are some ideas on how to at least cut down on the | |
| violence inflicted by patrol officers: | |
| Cops who cover their badge numbers, turn off their cameras (body/dash), | |
| or illegally stop someone from filming them should be severely | |
| disciplined. Repeat offenders should be terminated. | |
| It should be much easier for cops to be charged for crimes related to | |
| excessive force complaints. | |
| When a cop is fired from a police department for brutality, they should | |
| become ineligible from any further law enforcement and/or security jobs. | |
| This should be supported by a national database which should be part of | |
| background checks done on perspective cops. It's far too common for a | |
| cop who is fired from a police department for killing civilians to be | |
| rehired in a different police department. | |
| When police departments (or other law enforcement agencies) have | |
| lawsuits filed against them for excessive force complaints, the lawyers | |
| representing the department in question should be funded with that | |
| department's pension funds. This will help supposedly good cops (if | |
| there are any actually left) to rein in bad cops. | |
| Some police departments implement IQ tests as part of the hiring process | |
| if the perspective applicants have a very high IQ result, they are | |
| rejected. This is patently wrong and should be banned. If anything cops | |
| should be required to be educated. | |
