Hey all, I'm working with a group called American Voices that has the goal of providing comprehensive immigration reform, which means ceasing all illegal immigration and opening lawful channels for immigration.

One of our major obstacles is a group called FAIR.

They masquerade as vigilantes who want to protect the border, but in reality they are nothing but a hate group. The language they use is straight out of the books of the KKK and Nazi Party -- In fact, they've been designated a hate group along with the KKK and Nazi Party by independent civil right organizations such as the Southern Poverty Law Center.

They are a major obstacle to sensible, smart immigration policy and they are just flat-out racist as this video shows.

Please tell your friends about this harmful and hateful group. Racism should not have such a loud voice in 21st century America!

1. At first, I thought this was about...
"Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting" (a left-wing media watchdog.)

Glad that wasn't the case.

Probably better to ID the group by its full name just to avoid confusion.
