In many parts of the world where the citizenry is officially disarmed, the crime rate is like this all the time.

The judicial system in North Carolina (where Burris committed most of his crimes up until the murders in Gaffney) has a lot to answer for right now. This is on the heels of the murder of UNC-Chapel Hill student body president Eve Carson last year...one of her two murderers was out on probation, had never met with his probation officer here in Nifongville (Durham), but she went back in and tried to falsify the records to say he had *after* the news of the murder broke.

In defense of the various government agencies, while he had 25 pages of offenses, they were not indicative of a serial killer, or any killer for that matter. They were convictions of burglary, forgery, parole violation and traffic violations. His history, while bad, wasn’t anything that would point to potential serial killer or mass murderer.

None of the crimes mentioned seemed to indicate he was on a path to murder?

Wow, big changes must be coming soon. Unlike the last couple of dozen times a career criminal with a phone book for a rap sheet was out on the streets doing harm. Yep, THIS time, things will be different. Or not. I’m betting not.

True but they should have slammed him for the parole violations.

They should have thrown him back in to finish serving the 12 year sentence.

I’ll grant you your points, as far as being a serial murderer is concerned, but his record is certainly indicative of a person who should not be out and around. IMHO, there are people other than serial murderers or rapists who do no belong in society, who need to be kept behind bars indefinitely.

Never happen, unless one of the "chosen" people or their relatives is killed. Looked at the law mandating regulations of pool drains... nothing happens unless a senator/representative or high government official's grandkids or children are affected.

Ever heard of the following: ... establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish...? [emphasis added]

Sure sounds like the system has an obligation to me...

Noticed that too. Is it possible that all the scrapes with the law and then the 7 year prison sentence with prisoners who taught him more criminal behaviours( the modern all play and no work prison system makes them twofold more the child of hell it seems to me) may have put him over the edge.

[The system has no obligation to actually protect you] This is the only reason government exists, that is, to punish the wicked who will not live within the statutes of God. The system has no other obligations and is wrong to run school systems, to fix and install roads and bridges, to make laws contrary to the Constituional rights and liberties God gives mankind and to train children in the way to go. Government today is corrupted because they abridge the rights and liberties that the Christian Constitution gaurantees and has become a refuge for liars and fools that hate and despise American citizens in general.

For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. 6For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. 7Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. 8Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. 11And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 13Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. 14But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Has anyone read or heard anything about the two people who were with the perp when he was killed? I’m curious as to their relationship with the killer.

A list of the judges who let this predator roam free should be published. We need to see who is responsible for the deaths of these murder victims. Too bad they can’t be personally sued by the grieving families.
