Neo-Nazis call to make May 5th "Report An Illegal Day"


Source: National Socialist Militia.

The flyers have been circulating in Phoenix for a few days now. The message is direct: “Report an illegal today!”

Sponsored by the National Socialist Movement, which is considered by many as a neo-Nazi hate group; the leaflets are being distributed to coincide with Cinco de Mayo, a Mexican holiday known across the United States due to its wide commercialization depicting folkloric icons, mariachis, spicy food, margaritas and piñatas.

The NSM is calling May 5th "Report An Illegal Day" and passing out flyers inciting people to fax or email Congress and demand the border to be secured, asking local businesses to utilize e-verify and to denounce and turn in individuals to DHS and ICE.

The NSM website also asks American “patriots” to make copies of the pamphlet and distribute as many as possible. Below, you can see the reproduction of a literal paragraph referring to the flyer (includes its original semantic and punctuation errors.)

Their is no reason why any member should not be able to make 25 copies or more and hand them out . They could be handed out person to person , left under windshield wipers , in books , in literature racks just make sure these get out .

Be safe and always hold your self and members to the highest standards , look into any laws in your area and always carry your rights for literature distribution from the NSM.org site.”

Many Phoenix-area residents reacted with indignation after learning about the NSM’s campaign, but members of “the premier white civil rights organization in the world” as they call themselves, say they are exercising their right under the First Amendment. The NSM said local police is aware of the handouts as well.

At the beginning of April, another group named Arizona Citizens Militia, called on Arizonans to celebrate “Cinco de Ammo” (mocking “Cinco de Mayo") by purchasing five boxes of ammunition on May 5, 2010.

We call on Arizona Patriots to help us celebrate this historical event on 5 May 2010, by going out and purchasing five boxes of ammunition. We refer to this day of celebration as "Cinco de Ammo," says the message that is still posted on their website. 
 

The campaign of the National Socialist Movement, as well as the extreme call of the Arizona Citizens Militia, come in a moment when Arizona is facing the turmoil after the passage of the "Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act," (Senate Bill 1070) which was introduced by state Sen. Russell Pearce and signed into state law by Gov. Jan Brewer on April 23rd. The new immigration law which criminalizes undocumented aliens present in that state has triggered a wave of protests within immigrant rights advocates, Congressmen, and religious leaders who demand immigration overhaul and for the Obama administration to separate the issues of the immigrant communities and those derived from the violence generated in the border by the drug cartels. 

Today, when the celebrations of Cinco de Mayo to commemorate Puebla’s battle occur south of the border; in Phoenix, the NSM will be passing out fliers and recruiting members across the Valley, while the ACM will be calling to purchase ammunition.

    I'm with the Neos 100% on this one, because I will never side with an illegal alien against an American citizen, no matter how big our differences are, never.

    Sorry, illegals, the 'freebie teat' is about to get turned off. Just look at what is happening in Greece due to TOO much gov't funding for social programs. Just go back to your country, and please don't riot like you did in 1992 - and it wasn't even YOUR riot. Illegals = Opportunists = BAD for any democracy

    One thing is to disagree with the idea of immigration reform, and another is to support white supremacists that promote Hitler's ideology. Do you remember what Hitler did to millions of human beings? You are haters! You're wrong!

    Funny that in Mexico it is absolutely illegal to protest if you are not a citizen and could face up to 2 years in prison for being there illegally, not to mention that their southern border is way more secure than ours. The Mexican president would NEVER let his country be flooded with illegals the way they encourage their citizens to do ours. I mean the president himself said that Mexico will not take America by force but by sheer numbers, sounds like a call to war if you ask me.

    I just don't understand why this people feel superior... don't they remember that this country is made out of immigrants who came here illegaly as well? And also remember that mexicans are not the only immigrants (legal or ilegal)in this country, there's asians, africans, polish, servians and so on... Why can't we live in harmony and respect the live's of other human beings? May God forgive you haters.

    There seems to be an abundance of ignorance out there… One of the comments on the May 5, 2010 flyer is that Mexican’s are murders and kidnappers but if you look at the facts most murders are white, Ted Bundy, The Green River killer, Jeffery Dahmer just to mention a few. I am of the Hispanic origin and I am very proud to say that yes I am a citizen. I have friends and family members who come from Mexico and are very hard worker. You don’t see Mexicans on the corners begging for food and money. Yes you may see a Mexican in front of Home Depot looking for an honest day’s work to support their family’s not to buy drugs.

    You know, I always try to put my self in someone else's shoes. So, what if I was a brown "citizen" living in Arizona. I would feel like I could be harassed at anytime, in Arizona. Not cool!I think, Arizona went about their problem in the wrong way. Of course, if the feds did their job....Anyone that says they are with the Neos 100% has to be an angry, uneducated person. That is way uncool. There needs to be reform but hate is not the answer. People who join groups like these are usually poor, unemployed, white and uneducated and have never voted a day in their life.
