Angus Reid Global Monitor) - Many adults in the United States support enacting punitive measures in order to curb illegal immigration, according to a poll by YouGov/Polimetrix released by The Economist. At least 75 per cent of respondents would increase fines for employers who hire illegal immigrants, require police to report illegal immigrants to federal government, and make it a crime to hire illegal immigrants.

In addition, 67 per cent of respondents would use the National Guard to patrol the Mexican Border, and 57 per cent would build more border fences. Support is lower for forbidding illegal immigrants from sending their children to school, and requiring churches to report illegal immigrants

Yet the delusional illegals and their supporters continue their assertion that the majority of Americans want a "pathway to citizenship." Perhaps they believe if they perpetuate these spurious claims, the general public will begin to believe that those in opposition to this invasion are in the minority.
