Most Still Favor Refugee Freeze (Solid 52% support moratorium on refugees from terror hotbeds)
Rasmussen reports ^ | February 2, 2017 | Staff

Posted on 02/02/2017 8:53:45 AM PST by Sidebar Moderator

Despite continuing protests and legal challenges, just over half of voters favor President Trump's temporary refugee ban, although there's a lot less concern about the threat of domestic Islamic terrorism.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 52% of Likely U.S. Voters favor a ban that keeps refugees from all countries from entering the United States for the next four months until there is a better system in place to keep out individuals who are terrorist threats. Forty-three percent (43%) are opposed.

I really wish we could have a muslim ban.
Islam is completely incompatible with freedom and the Constitution.
All muslims are religiously obligated to see sharia become the law of the land, any land where there are muslims.
All muslims are commanded by their prophet in their “holy” book to subjugate, convert or kill everyone else on earth.

There is no moderate Koran.

Know Islam, No Peace - No Islam, Know Peace

Leadership and essential decision making should not be influenced by polls. The media is doing its best to influence the sheeple. This immigration issue is out of hand. “Compassion” should NEVER come at the expense of an American citizen. In my estimation, President Trump has not done enough thus far. There are forces on both sides who want the borders overwhelmed and overrun with immigrants. It is a clear and present danger to our sovereignty,culture,and security of our nation.

How about putting the refugees in Gitmo? I understand Australia puts theirs on an island off the coast. Can’t we do the same? Guam?

Here is what I know that should be done

When these refugees start coming back to the US we need to stop sending them to Stone Mountain Ga and Buffalo New York and start with Beverly Hills , Malibu , San Francisco , Seattle , Chevy Chase Maryland and Manhattan, New York where they can drive drunk.

Interesting to see. People support the president.

The loudest liberal voices are amplified by the media, to the exclusion of all else.

Based on how the media is reporting this, this is a Muslim ban, an immigrant ban, the first step to setting up internment camps, etc. If you only watch the MSM, you would swear that we are banning people’s elderly mothers from visiting, locking out grad students who just want to finish their PHD, etc...

Too bad Giuliani and Trump signaled their unconstitutional intent beforehand.

The refugees should be settled in the neighborhoods of those who oppose the temporary ban.

Most people think polls are horse manure and are not subject to hive mind.

The Left better hope and pray there are no more jihadi attacks or that number goes to 67%. It’s probably already really 60%.

The word you are looking for is ‘correct’. Note: you and I do not have to like it, but it is true.

Round up all the “refugees” and ship them to “sanctuary cities”. When they reach 20% and the beheading starts, they will no longer want to be sanctuary cities.

Then deport them all.

I thought it was like 67% last week. I hope temper tantrums and hissy fits by leftists can’t really move normal Americans by 12 points in one week.
