Criminalizing policy differences has a long and sordid history and should be consigned to banana republics and the bloody French revolution.

Where did I say policy differences? There are no penalties specific to govt violations of liberty. Until there are, govts at every level will push the envelope of state power and control. A mechanism could be created to allow for proceedings once an action has been declared by the Court to have violated a liberty. We could copy the Brits and have the case prosecuted by private attorneys who are known to be experts in constitutional liberties. They would not be agents of the state.
