[@brianpeyton6083]

Rarely do I disagree with a rating, the guy did try to take the phone. The attempt should be treated the same as if he did seize it, like they try to add on things.

[@bencheevers6693]

The cops could literally have said this is the way it is, we have a felony and we suspect you have evidence, you don't have to comply but if you choose not to we will get a search warrant and that will disrupt your life further when we come to your home and seize your phone with a warrant. We will get that video one way or another and if you delete it that is in fact a felony. We don't want to make an issue for you and we don't want to seize your phone but this is a serious charge and it will be pursued. I apologize for the inconvenience. That sounds pretty harsh but it's all the facts, it's courteous even though it's blunt and it just lays out the situation, you don't need to get into a fight or threaten arrest and should she decide not to comply with your request then you just follow the enshrined procedure, get the warrant and seize the phone. Don't step for a second or by an inch outside the bounds of your power as established by law, you don't need to be rude but you also don't need to acquiesce and drop it. That evidence is fairly crucial and there's no legal reason it wouldn't be collected one way or another.

It's like comparing someone who will beat you up for talking back or someone will beat you up if you ultimately get over their limit. Both are bad, just one you can avoid the conflict. Wich makes them "Slightly" better. F officers would have arrested her regardless if she complied. As you saw the officer was trying to arrest them for "Reaching, Threatening body language and such" But the Chief pushed it off and didn't let him.

I don't think there's a single video on this channel that gives the police less than an F where multiple people aren't in the comments saying it deserved an F. Of course, if those commenters had their way, then every video would rate the police an F, making the rating system pointless. The whole point of the middle grades isn't that they didn't do something (maybe even multiple somethings) wrong, it's that what they did wrong wasn't as bad as some of the other examples. If they'd actually arrested her or assaulted her, or illegally seized her phone, they for sure would have gotten an F.

I was also rather surprised at this rating. A "C" rating should be considered as what it is: acceptable but not noteworthy or above average in any way. For law enforcement, that should mean understanding the law (including individual rights) and respecting the law. This is a baseline requirement of the profession, *not* a superlative behavior. These officers made several statements and actions indicating that, at a minimum, they did not understand their authority. At best, they were ignorant. Worse than that would be *knowledge* of authority but disregard of it. It may be difficult to ascribe intent, but it seems likely that there was minimal ignorance. I think this goes to at least a D, if not an F. And let's not make the mistake of limiting an F to only the "worst case" scenario. I've never seen a video on this channel that displayed a "worst case" scenario, and I've watched all of them. Furthermore, that's not the baseline of comparison, because that is not the *expectation* of the profession (or any profession).

I’ve been binge watching these during a bout with insomnia (great great channel; you provide a real service) and what I’ve come up with is that your channel and channels like yours should be weekly mandatory watching by every police officer in every police department across the Nation.

Remember that it's about rights and what they can do. ATA tries to be unbiased but I do dagree C- is too high. More like a D- as they kept threatening a false arrest. F would mean they trampled over her rights over nothing and she be in handcuffs much earlier as the police points out. They aren't good, but they are better then the worst examples. And yes that does sound like "defending them" but it's not. After all we are comparing someone who assault and arrest you for disagreeing, with someone who will assault and arrest you for not giving them what they need ultimately.
