Big hearted Aussies alert!
The Australian shocks with 14,000 illegals slip through net:
Almost 14,000 failed asylum-seekers are on the run in Australia after having their refugee claims rejected, immigration authorities say.
Bovination has the details.

Well, they have a ways to go to match the USA. Here the "Immigration and Naturalization Service" (sic) can't even manage to deport the really verminous ones as they leave prison:
Miguel Angel Gordoba is a pedophile. He is also an illegal immigrant.

So last year, after he finished serving a four-year sentence for molesting a 2-year-old girl in rural Alma, Ga., everyone assumed that he would be deported to his native Mexico, as required by federal law.

Everyone was wrong.

Gordoba left prison and disappeared into the community because the Immigration and Naturalization Service never deported him.

A computer analysis by Cox Newspapers shows that in Georgia alone, hundreds of felons, including child molesters, drug dealers and robbers, were never picked up by the INS after they finished their sentences. Nationally, federal investigators say thousands of immigrant felons have not been deported, although no one knows precisely how many.
