Old comments[edit]

The movement began in the mid 1980s by local activists who felt the Los Angeles area and California was being overwhelmed by high rates of illegal immigrations. At first, there was media publicity and government critique about they pose as a "hate group" similar to 19th century Nativists and actions like group protesters are publically shouting "anti-foreigner" sentiment (more like asking illegal aliens to go home) was done by the KKK (a white racist group known to harrassed Latinos) as well. But it turned out there are high numbers of Blacks, Native Americans and US-born Hispanics in the CCIR and are backed by mainstream conservative Republicans not neo-Nazis or xenophobes in the fringe (i.e. militias or skinheads) to identicate the CCIR wants improved border security and illegal immigration stings by the INS based on federal law enforcement. + 71.102.7.77 (talk) 04:31, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bias tag[edit]

Why was a "bias" tag added to the article by user:99.238.79.186?[1] Will Beback talk 21:04, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

The article seems dependent on blogs as sources, which are not considered RS, Reliable Sources, according to Wikipedia. More information needs to be found; the group has been around long enough to have been written about in a more studied way.Parkwells (talk) 12:37, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The reference to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) was removed because it discredited the report and completely eviscerated the credibility of the article. The SPLC has, itself, been identified as a left-wing, anti-Christian hate group by the American Family Association as well as by the Family Research Council and is no longer used as a resource by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a consequence of its unreliability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.110.24.10 (talk) 15:24, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV[edit]

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:10, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CCIR web site[edit]

The CCIR web site is referenced in the article. As of today, that site (ccir.net) returns "Site No Longer Available." Individual pages on the site are still accessible, and so the hyperlink for reference 1 still works. At some point, we may want to replace the reference with one at the WayBack Machine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kwdavids (talk • contribs) 13:35, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article link has gone dead and I have replaced it with a copy from the WayBack Machine (web.archive.org). Dr. Conspiracy (talk) 22:51, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
