SC exit poll: 75 percent agree with Trump’s Muslim ban

Three-fourths of Republicans participating in Saturday's South Carolina GOP primary say they support presidential hopeful Donald Trump's proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the U.S., according to an exit poll.

A CBS News exit poll of Palmetto State primary voters found that 75 percent said they support Trump's proposal, while 23 percent said they oppose it.

Just days after the terrorist attack in San Bernardino, Calif. - the worst on U.S. soil since 9/11 - Trump sparked a media backlash for saying that all Muslims should be temporarily banned from entering the country.

The proposal has been ridiculed as impossible to implement and called racist by some, but it has resonated with many people concerned about the potential for terrorists to infiltrate the U.S.

Terrorism was the top concern of GOP voters polled in the CBS survey, followed closely by jobs and the economy and government spending.

The real estate tycoon is the favorite to win the South Carolina primary on Saturday, although Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio both appear to have made late gains.

The CBS exit poll also found that voters were split on supporting an outsider versus an establishment candidate, with 48 percent saying they want someone with no political experience against 46 percent who say they prefer an insider.

Let me tell you what I saw at the Walmart in Northern PA. today:

I entered behind a young muslim couple. She was wearing a black hijab; very expensive jeans and denim jacket. He was in khakis; loose white shirt; wearing a white knitted skull cap (North African style).

I got a bad feeling...like San Bernadino bad.

Just inside the entrance, she took out her cellphone and started taking photos. She took shots of the Customer Service Center; the checkout counters and registers; the Rest Rooms; and the Income Tax guy’s booth.

I followed them down the aisle...they didn’t go far. I browsed at greeting cards and Easter candy while trying to catch what they were saying, without being too conspicuous. They seemed to have a short argument; she finally said “OK...we’ll come back later.”

They left witout purchasung a single item.

I sought out the store manager and gave him a complete report of the suspicious behaviour and a good description of the couple. I told him exactly what time they entered the store.

I know Wally’s has cameras everywhere, especially at entrances and exits. So they must be on film.

FReepers, should I report this to anyone else?

Maybe with a President Trump I won’d have to be afraid to go to Walmart anymore.

The INVASION is the most important issue by a large margin. The people that still live in the ever shrinking enclaves that resemble the former America just don’t get it.

Unfortunately, the way it is now whenever we are shopping and spot a hijab, we keep a safe distance away.

Thanx

I've been spamming every thread I could find ... I thought people might be getting pissed at me

I need to bandage my bloody fingers


Personally ... I don't want Dondi to better Cruz

I'm a Trumpster, and they ALL have something wrong with them .... but there's something about Dondi I just don't like.

In my view you did exactly the right thing, even if the store manager was receptive it might be a good idea to inform local police.

Darn! I didn’t have any bacon bits or pork rinds handy.

Seriously, where would be the best place to plant a bomb in a Walmart?

At the front, where people are entering and exiting? People running outside might find terrorists waiting to mow them down?

There were about 150 people in the store at the time. It was getting more crwded as I left. 3 o’clock on a Saturdey afternoon.

Trump’s proposal to ban ALL Muslims from entering the copuntry:

The proposal has been ridiculed as impossible to implement and called racist by the GOPe.

The proposal has been welcomed, agreed, and cheered by real, everyday, working Americans....

Cannot wait to CRUCIFY the lying TWERP RUBIO.

Rubio is a degenerate douchebag who has done nothing in life except con simpletons into voting him into office.

Hes a conniving backstabber, has no qualifications to be President, no different than the animal in the WH right now.

Piss off Rubio you TWERP.

DEPORT TODAY, DEPORT TOMORROW, DEPORT FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!
