I disagree. The terrorists are very well funded and wouldn't hesitate to foreit a few bucks to remain here and wreak havoc. As for some bail bondsman tracking them, the terrorists can simply set up their own shop and bond their own people.

The bail agent would then be financially responsible for ensuring that the visa holder complies with the conditions of his visa.

No bond agent would touch this with a ten-foot pole unless there was a provision relieving them of responsibility if the subject leaves the country. Unlike american-born fugitives from justice, foreigners have someplace else to go where they can blend right in.

A simple cash bond, forfeitable upon non-compliance would be best.
