(Before It's News)

Media Research Center’s Dan Joseph was recently kicked out a public pro-immigration rally for daring to ask attendees about Kate Steinle and “Kate’s Law.”

The rally took place on the University of Colorado campus at Boulder before last week’s Republican presidential debate.

Joseph spoke with a number of people asking whether they knew who Kate Steinle was or had heard about Kate’s Law. None shown in the video had. When he told some about Steinle’s story, there were a few that appeared sympathetic to her tragic death at the hands of an illegal immigrant with a criminal record.

Joseph was eventually approached by a man wearing a yellow shirt labeled “Monitor,” who told him to stop conducting interviews. “I don’t like you asking people here the questions that you’re asking,” the man said.

“Why are alternative viewpoints and asking people these really tough questions about a really tough [issue] — why don’t you like that?” Joseph wondered.

“You won’t ask these questions to anybody else here,” the man responded. “You are not welcome here…it’s a special event.”

The MRC reporter stood his ground and continued to question the “monitor” why he could not stay, given there were other reporters at the event, and it was advertised as being open to the public.

The monitor did not relent. Joseph was not happy, but indicated that he had enough material for his story.

None-the-less, as the journalist was leaving he decided to defy the man’s order and interview another person. The monitor intervened telling the newly arriving attendee that he did not have to answer the Joseph’s question.

“Kate’s Law”, which was recently blocked by Senate Democrats, requires a mandatory 5 year prison sentence for any illegal immigrant with a criminal record, who was deported and returns to the United States illegally.

A newly released poll by Rasmussen finds that 56 percent of likely U.S. voters favor the law. Twenty-seven percernt oppose the legislation, and 18 percent are undecided.

As for party breakdown, 72 percent of Republicans and 53 percent of independent voters support Kate’s Law, while Democrats back it by a much narrower 43 to 36 percent margin, with 21 percent undecided.

Fifty-nine percent of those surveyed believe the federal government is not being aggressive enough in punishing illegal immigrants who commit felony crimes in the United States.
