Glenn Spencer, Nativist Anti-Semite, Lectures Arizona State Senate Border Security Committee
Read it all here.
Nativist extremist and documented anti-Semite Glenn Spencer spoke today at the state Senate Border Security, Federalism, and States’ Rights Committee, a seriously loony legislative panel chaired by crackpot Republican state Senator Sylvia Allen.
Democratic state Senators Steve Gallardo and Robert Meza walked out of the committee in protest as soon as they realized Spencer would be speaking. Spencer’s name had not been placed on the agenda. Instead, the name of his company, Border Technology, Inc., was listed.
Essentially Allen and her fellow Mexican-bashers on the committee snuck in the notorious nativist, likely because the last time Spencer was scheduled to speak at this committee a year ago, the local chapter of the Anti-Defamation League raised holy hell, and Spencer was quickly “uninvited.”

Spencer was linked to minutewoman Shawna Forde, who was convicted and sentenced to death in 2011 for her part in the murders of 9 year-old Brisenia Flores and her father Raul during a botched 2009 home invasion robbery at the Flores home in Arivaca.
Forde had lived on Spencer’s property near the border, and she visited Spencer’s home as she was being pursued by law enforcement. Spencer allowed her to use her laptop at his abode. She was arrestedby the FBI shortly after leaving his property.
Spencer’s been vocal in his dislike of both Mexicans and Jews. In a 2001 statement on his American Patrol website, he wrote the following, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center:
“Our country is being invaded by Mexico with hostile intentions. When it blows up, they can’t say we didn’t tell them, when the blood starts flowing on the border and in L.A.”
His anti-Semitism is also well-documented. In a Jew-bashing screed still on his website entitled “Speaking the Unspeakable: Is Jew-Controlled Hollywood Brainwashing Americans?” he discusses how Jews supposedly control the entertainment industry and marks how too many of them, in his opinion, support illegal immigration.
