ATTENTION FLORIDA BIKERS:

HB-137 (FL): Who's really on our side? Who's really not?

Many of you who contacted Florida State District 113 Representative Carlos Lopez-Cantera [Carlos.Lopez-Cantera@myfloridahouse.gov] recently to protest "HB 137: Offenses Committed While Operating a Motorcycle"--a highly discriminatory and draconian proposal that would allow the state to seize bikes for certain traffic offenses--received a reply from Lopez-Cantera that included the following:

"I recently met with James Reichenbach [abatefl@worldnet.att.net] from ABATE, and after I explained the true intent of this legislation he told me that he would support it."

The full text of Lopez-Cantera's statement can be found posted in many locations on the Web, including the following:

"The battle for bikers' rights is not about patches, parties or poker runs. We fight to protect the freedom and promote the interests of American motorcyclists ... to defend our right to choose our own modes of transportation, attire and lifestyle ... to deter and defy discrimination against us ... and to vanquish those who violate our rights or right-of-way. And in the end, it will not matter to us whether we won or lost. But it will matter to us greatly that we fought."--Bruce Arnold
