Iraq dominated the headlines throughout the fall of 2002 and into the winter of 2003. Public opinion on the wisdom of war, however, stabilized relatively early and slightly in favor of war. Gallup found that from August 2002 through early March 2003 the share of Americans favoring war hovered in a relatively narrow range between a low of 52 percent and a high of 59 percent. By contrast, the share of the public opposed to war fluctuated between 35 percent and 43 percent.

Looks like Americans are even more happy with murdering people if its done by a puppet.

Something tells me if a revolution ever comes that 70% will still need a lot of re-education

Maybe we build a big wall

It'd be expensive though maybe Mexico can chip in

That bell curve meme where the lowest end is "we need to build a wall" and the middle is "building a wall is expensive and would solve nothing" and the high end is "we need to build a wall"
