PHOENIX - Two people were arrested and more than a hundred protesters were separated by police Saturday in downtown Phoenix.

The riot happened Saturday afternoon when the National Socialist Movement began its march in support of Arizona’s controversial immigration law.

"This is not what America stands for," said one of the protesters.

"They are not welcome in my country," said another.

ABC15 crews at the march near Jefferson and 8th streets said two dozen neo-Nazis clashed with more than a hundred people who opposed the group.
