Seems also that the point of residency requirements for police is to have a
police force made up of city residents. Making the existing police people
live here is unnatural - and wouldn't result in changing their behavior.
Seems the better avenue is getting police recruits from within the existing
pool of city residents. Police recruits who have respect for their fellow
city-citizens, who have a vision of how a police force should behave, who
can reconcile the existing problems with their own participation that seeks
a solution.
