Default The Problem is Poor Reporting, Not Necessarily the Sheriff's Dictum

It sure would be nice if reporters covered stories by telling you WHY, not just WHAT! This ************* report didn't bother to give the sheriff's rationale, they just print the seeming absurdity and leave us all guessing.
I did see way down into the bottom of the report that the sheriff felt the officer's vocal communications could be misunderstood due to the mask covering their mouths--and that could be a lethal problem, if a subject didn't comply with a command.
And with the threat facing our men in blue right now, giving a potential terrorist the advantage of anonymity when walking into the station could possibly be a danger to the personnel in the building.
All this leaves us in the partial dark as to what is going on there--too bad journalists can't do a better job of reporting.
