A Field Poll of registered California voters reveals that:
49% are "extremely" concerned about illegal immigration...
32% are "somewhat" concerned about illegal immigration...
And, asked if Arnold should declare a "border emergency", these percentages said yes:
44% overall
62% among Republicans
35% of Latinos
On the downside, 56 percent oppose civilian border patrols, and 41% support. However, support grows the closer to the border you get.
And, many more might support a California border patrol.

"On the downside, 56 percent oppose civilian border patrols,..."
This shows how powerful the MSM's propaganda and misrepresentation campaign -- 'vigilantes', etc -- was and is. There is really no good reason for anyone to have an objection to ordinary Americans doing what the recent Minuteman Project did, for example. I mean, what is the greater evil?
