Americans Say Stop Importing Jihadists
A new poll suggests that large majorities of Americans agree with the common sense proposition that we should stop importing jihadists. A murderous attack in Orlando heightened concern that we already have too many here.
This online survey by Opinion Savvy found that 71% of respondents support “identifying foreign supporters of Sharia law prior to their admission to the United States.” Of those favoring such identification, 80% believe Sharia-supremacists should not be admitted into the country.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump put this issue on the political map last year by calling for a temporary pause in admissions of Muslims until a way can be found to determine whether they’re potential terrorists. In recent days, he has suggested applying that restriction to would-be immigrants from certain countries.
Newt Gingrich argues the defining test should instead be adherence to Sharia. He’s right.
