PHOENIX - - The National Socialist Movement, which is considered by many to be a neo-nazi hate group, is passing out fliers for an event to coincide with Cinco de Mayo.

According to a flier received by ABC15, the National Socialist Movement is calling May 5th, "Report An Illegal Day".

The one-page flier calls on people to fax or email Congress and demand that the border be secured. It also wants people to ask local businesses to participate in e-verify and to turn in people to DHS and ICE.

"They're trying to do something like this on a day which is so special to us like Cinco de Mayo," said Phoenix resident Anna Duran.

Duran said she has no plans to change her Cinco de Mayo celebration plans in light of the handout, but she is concerned about her friends and family's safety.

"It's really scary, it's not just for me, I have two girls who were born in this country," said Duran. "It's just not right, we are humans, we are all humans, we are people and we have feelings."

The National Socialist Movement flier does have a Phoenix P.O. Box and phone number attached. ABC15 called the Phoenix-area phone number but there was only a recording.

Others who read the flier, calling for the May 5th Celebration, said they were upset.

"It does make me mad, it's wrong, it's very racist," said Pedro Falcon. "I'm not going to be living in fear that day or anything."

According to the group's website, the National Socialist Movement wants each member to hand out 25-fliers.

A Phoenix police office told ABC15 they are looking into the flier.
