The government routinely releases undocumented immigrants caught along the U.S.-Mexican border while it decides whether to deport them, and roughly half of them don't show up for their date with an immigration judge.

90% of these illegal aliens are from Central America. Must be deported by airplane and the INS/Border Patrol is too damn f***** up to get the logistics in place to do so in huge numbers. I'll bet they are very happy when these Central Americans don't show up for court appearance. And the ones that do ...... I doubt they are deported in any kind of decent time frame.

The Border Patrol would like nothing better than to load all these people on planes and send them packing. If nothing else they should be detained until their hearing.

There is no more INS thank God, and the responsibility for detaining these aliens now rests with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement). I guarantee that ICE has every funded bed space filled to capacity. We can blame the employees of DHS for this, however upon more serious reflection the responsibility clearly rests with our congressional representatives and the administration and their inability to draft a safe and sane immigration policy.
