Most Support Temporary Ban on Newcomers from Terrorist Havens

zimmer · Jan 30, 2017

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 57% of Likely U.S. Voters favor a temporary ban on refugees from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen until the federal government approves its ability to screen out potential terrorists from coming here. Thirty-three percent (33%) are opposed, while 10% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Aren't polls just a bunch of BS?

They can be.

We know from the past election, and many previous ones, that the press tends to have a bias for Demokrats.

So, with that in mind, we can probably add a few points to the "support" side of the equation.

The question is wrong. The government has approved its current vetting system. We have been using it for years now.

Except it's not just a ban on refugees from those 7 countries; it's a ban on tourists, businessmen, airline pilots and cabin crew, and sportsmen born in those countries - even if they've spent most of their lives in Western countries.

They're closing down incoming from those 7 countries for 3-months.

Yes... it's quite a system that prevented the use of social media. Stuff people put online freely, and our guys couldn't use.

A retard wouldn't do that, but Obama did.

People died because of it too.

Saudi Arabia, Yemen, UAE, Egypt? Where are they on the list? Oh, that's right. people from the nations that actually attacked us are not on the list.

This thread is a joke, just like Trump.

Yemen is on Trump's list, think before posting. BTW the others you mentioned may not be on the list now but
Trump certainly has their attention. The jokes on those who thought Trump was like recent politicians &
wouldn't follow up on his promises. He has! Why? To make America Great Again, that's why!

Hot damn! Once upon a time 57% of respondents thought the earth was flat and the center of the known universe. The masses are so well informed, so rational.

So the list isn't expansive enough for you. OK.

More rational than the leftist wackos running around airports with their hair on fire, that's for sure.

Yes, mobocracy is a very popular form of government.

Don't know about the masses, but we are certainly seeing evidence of that in the people protesting President Trump's temporary hold on travel from certain countries.

Yes... that was before there was proof.

Many on the Left think the world still is flat concerning this issue, as we've witnessed terror attacks from Mulsims all over the world... and those doing the vetting were prohibited from looking at social media!!!

90-days to set up a system... to protect Americans. So bad... so, so bad.

Refugees whose lives are disrupted and endangered must wait three months more.... How caring.

Just no attacks from the countries listed.

Yes, this is true. It's a shame their own countrymen care so little about them that their only choice is to flee.

They were during the election. Should we ignore them all from now on?
