Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : And there are bad people with legal authorization, too.
41% : We've no problem with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement doing its job and deporting violent criminals and those guilty of sex offenses involving minors, among other serious matters.
27% : We understand the propaganda value, too, for a Trump administration that wants to confirm the president's point that there are bad people in this city and state without legal authorization.
18% : We were astonished to see Phil McGraw, a man who uses a soubriquet that includes the word "doctor," embedding himself with ICE, a questionable move in and of itself for a person who has claimed to heal, and then literally shining a spotlight on a Thai national who was rounded up by ICE on Sunday in Chicago.
