Poll: US-Mexico border opinions differ upi.com From the International Desk Published 6/12/2002 10:30 AM View printer-friendly version WASHINGTON, June 12 (UPI) -- Nearly three out of five Mexicans believe there should be no border control for Mexican nationals crossing into the United States, while two-thirds of U.S. citizens do not believe illegal aliens in the country should be granted amnesty, a poll released Tuesday stated. The poll was commissioned by Americans for Immigration Control Inc., which issued a statement saying the poll results show there is little support among Americans for a relaxation of border crossing policies between the United States and Mexico. The poll was conducted by Zogby International. The group, over the period May 25-26, asked a series of questions of 801 Mexicans. A total of 1,015 U.S. citizens were questioned between May 28-30. The data have a margin of error of 3.5 percent. Asked if they believed the U.S. Southwest rightfully belonged to Mexico, 58 percent of respondents in Mexico said it did, while 28 percent disagreed. A similar number -- 57 percent -- stated agreement with the position that Mexicans have the right to enter the United States without U.S. permission. A total of 35 percent disagreed. A different set of questions was asked of the U.S. respondents. A total of 58 percent of those questioned said the United States should admit fewer immigrants each year while 30 percent said the U.S. immigration levels should be kept the same. Sixty-five percent of those asked disagreed with the comment that foreigners illegally in the United States should be given amnesty and allowed to legally stay in the country, while 26 percent agree. And 68 percent of Americans questioned believed that the U.S. military should be used as a temporary measure to help the U.S. Border Patrol control illegal immigration. Some 28 percent disagreed.

Poor deluded widdle Tommie... Regarding: "another habitual lying buddy mckee syndrome denial debunked." Do you imagine that you are 'debunking' things now... without actually ever posting any facts or arguments? I suppose you think that you are 'debunking' by telepathy... or perhaps it is only necessary for the feared 'Subpar Tommie' signature to be fixed to a post - and all opponents run screaming away from your mental mastery - (in your own mind, anyway :)
