From Rasmussen:
Global warming advocates are calling for the prosecution of groups who disagree with them, and New York State has taken it a step further by investigating Exxon Mobil for refusing to play ball with the popular scientific theory.
But 68% of Likely U.S. Voters oppose the government investigating and prosecuting scientists and others including major corporations who question global warming.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 17% favor such prosecutions.
Fifteen percent (15%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Just over one-in-four Democrats (27%), however, favor prosecuting those who don’t agree with global warming.
Only 11% of Republicans and 12% of voters not affiliated with either major party agree.
After all, just 24% of all voters believe the scientific debate about global warming is over, although that’s up from 20% in July of last year.
Unchanged is the 63% who say that debate is not done yet.
Thirteen percent (13%) are not sure.
Among voters who believe scientists have made up their minds about global warming, one-in-four (24%) favor prosecuting those who question that theory, but 64% are opposed.

Where are we? How can you prosecute someone for his or her ideas? This is beyond dangerous. The level of stupidity in our population is reaching unbelievable levels.
