‘Motorcycle profiling’ bill attracts crowd

There’s a big crowd at the House Judiciary Committee’s meeting this afternoon, including dozens of leather-clad motorcycling enthusiasts. The committee has a fairly long agenda; at its very end is Rep. Robert Anderst’s bill to define and forbid “motorcycle profiling,” so that law enforcement officers don’t target bikers for stops or searches merely because they ride motorcycles or wear motorcycle gear. The bill is HB 123 . Here’s a link to my last story on the proposal/ Betsy Russell , Eye on Boise. More here.
