A Topeka group wants the public to attend an upcoming City Council meeting to protest the mayor’s suggestion that the city adopt an ordinance regulating wearing caps and hoodies in businesses with video surveillance.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Bias Busters of Kansas is asking the public to attend Tuesday’s Topeka City Council.

Mayor Bill Bunten says he’s suggesting that the city allow a retail store to ask people who come in wearing a hooded sweat shirt or ball cap to take it off their head so surveillance camera can see them. Police Chief Ron Miller also recommended a similar measure to discourage robberies.

Sonny Scroggins, of Bias Busters, says he’s urging residents to attend the meeting Tuesday as a way of voicing opposition to what Bunten is suggesting.
