I simply contend it should be peers who review the policy (not the improper use of policy) and propose improvements. I think it's a fair debate, and as I have said in most cases I am okay with outside perspective as I think sometimes you can be too close, simply not in this case in my mind.

Exactly.  I would just say someone who lives in the neighborhood can also give insight into the residents and their interactions with the police.

People have a cow when the government investigates itself.  That's no different that internal affairs to me.

We can disagree on this.  That's what debate is about. Putting out ideas and trying to narrow them down to a working solution.  And then doing it again and again to get better.
