Immigration: Three in five Americans say the tens of thousands of minors who have crossed the border "should be ordered to leave the U.S." What about that do the Congress and president not understand?
The latest IBD/TIPP Poll, conducted June 24 to 29, asked those Americans who are following the story what to do about the influx of unaccompanied minors. Those saying that the government should order them to leave totaled 60%.
Breaking that sizeable majority down, 64% of independents wanted the minors sent home, as did 40% of Democrats and 80% of Republicans. There were 879 Americans surveyed in all.
Those who think the children "should be allowed to stay in the U.S. and eventually become citizens" totaled just 28%. Forty-six percent of Democrats thought they should stay and move toward citizenship; so did 24% of independents and 14% of Republicans.
Ten percent of all people polled weren't sure.
The findings reflect a widespread recognition that the border is undergoing an unprecedented crisis as our immigration system fails to function as intended under the law.

I AGREE...
“If there is one member of the family here illegally, the whole family should be sent back.”
I bet some DoJ lawyer and a non elected judge would say that is against the law.
correction to my post: $1.9 million should read: $190 million
What is the end game? What are they trying to accomplish?
Breaking that sizeable majority down, 64% of independents wanted the minors sent home, as did 40% of Democrats and 80% of Republicans. There were 879 Americans surveyed in all.
Let’s break this down another way. 36% of independents, 60% of democrats and 20% of republicans are idiots and traitors. And that is a big problem!
60% of dums are wrong 96.7% of the time. The rest are always wrong.
"He" was G.W.Bush, not a real firm border control guy regardless how good he may have otherwise been. It does not prohibit return, it requires due process.
On the other hand, how should it apply?
100% of these "children" came to us through the courtesy of mexico, they're either mexico's problem or ours & mexico had to work, re-interpret immigration laws, and expedite transport to the USA, in order to scrape them off on us.
Seems that it's about time we learned how to return the favor. Starting by handing this particular problem, including gang bangers and hopeful relatives marking time just below our only southern border, back to our scumbag neighbors whether "they" like it or not.
PS to Jim Rob; $25 in the mail as my penance for drive-by reply while speed lurking.
