The Link between Anti-Immigrant Groups and Hate Groups

Solana Larsen in NACLANews (here) has an interesting article on the anti-immigration movement mobilized its own forces. According to Larsen, the number of state and local anti-immigration groups in the United States has exploded, growing by 600% in the last two years. One-fourth of the new groups are chapters of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps (MCDC), the volunteer paramilitary group that patrols the U.S.-Mexico border, builds fences, and notes the license plate numbers of contractors who hire undocumented workers.

Larsen discuses the links between anti-immigrant groups and hate groups.
