They've already done surveys. As many as 40% want him brought here to face justice. And a sizable chunk are indifferent, leaving fewer who actually just want him to stay where he is. It's generally a split situation. There is no "vast majority." There isn't a majority of any stripe.

And I find nothing naive about upholding this nation's Constitution and Charter of Rights. It is naive to think that doing so will result in the tolerance of terrorism----or, as you suggest, in merely supporting such an initiative.

Bullocks.
