Group calls for probe
of U.S. border 'vigilantes'


...Glenn Spencer, of the American Border Patrol, has denied the hate group label imposed on his California-based organization - Voices of Citizens Together - and repeated in Wednesday's report.
   However, he agreed with the report's call for an investigation.
   "It needs to be a broad investigation that looks at Mexico's intrusion into affairs of the U.S. and the affiliations between these organizations and a Mexican government, whose objective it is to reverse the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and exert control over the southwestern United States," said Spencer. He added that members of his organizations include people of various races, ethnic backgrounds and religious creeds.
