Bear abusing Republican wannabe Governor of California John H. Cox deserves to be sanctioned for his senseless stunt in San Diego
More ‘bozo’ than ‘beast’ and plainly a practitioner of nothing but ‘bear cheek’ rather than ‘bare chic,’ 66/1 chance wannabe Governor of California John H. Cox is a multi-millionaire Republican who well and truly deserves a roasting.
Condemned by the San Diego Humane Society and featured in the Guardian this morning, this reckless rogue turned up to campaign in that particular city with a 1,000lb Kodiak bear named Tag as part of his voteforthebeast.com operation.
Disgustingly and without consideration for the poor beast, Cox’s decision to appear “at lecterns with his ursine companion wandering behind him” were shot down by animal rights groups and state lawmakers as a “senseless stunt.”
Quite rightly now given he has likely breached a San Diego city code that reads: “No person shall offer for sale, give away, bring into or maintain within an area coming within the jurisdiction of this ordinance, any lion, tiger, bear, monkey, wolf, cougar, ocelot, wildcat, skunk,” Cox deservedly likely faces action against him in the form of a misdemeanor charge.
Moron of the Moment 2021 – Attention seeking John H. Cox rented Tag from a firm that hawks out “wild animals for entertainment purposes.” According to NBC7 San Diego, the Republican’s gubernatorial campaign is “centered around the theme a ‘beauty and the beast’ theme, with Newsom being the beautiful out-of-touch politician and Cox being the ‘beast’ who can make change in California. Tag has become a quasi-campaign mascot.”Moron of the Moment 2021 – John H. Cox’s inane logo even features a roaring bear.Moron of the Moment 2021 – This true berk deserves full sanction over his frankly sick treatment of an animal that should not be paraded around as a prop.
As Erik Menendez is undeservedly thrown in ‘the hole’ in the most ludicrous fashion in California, Matthew Steeples suggests it is time both him and his equally abused brother Lyle were finally released
In February 2018, The Steeple Times was amongst the first to report on brothers Erik and Lyle Menendez being reunited in prison after 22 years of incarceration without sight of one another, but last week, quite wrongly, they were once again separated.
Erik with his brother Lyle whilst on trial. The brothers shot dead their parents at their familial home at 722 North Elm Drive, Beverly Hills, California, CA 90210 on 20th August 1989. The duo claimed they acted in self-defense after years of physical and sexual abuse, but were convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole in 1996.
The reason for Erik Menendez’s isolation is that last Monday a parcel containing marijuana was sent to him and intercepted by prison workers. On the basis of their discovery, Erik is now under investigation accused of either planning to use the drug personally, distributing it or using it as currency according to TMZ.
In response, Tammi tweeted:
“It’s the most ridiculous case. They sent in the box items Erik clearly cannot have sent to him. Only a few items inside the box as well. To ensure the mailroom would figure out there is contraband inside. He is being railroaded once again.”
In a series of missives, she later added:
“Exhausting day! Dealing with the prison and drained because they put Erik in the ‘hole’! Miss him & hard to deal with a loved one disappearing off the face of the earth! Had two anti-maskers in my business today, didn’t have the strength to debate mask wearing.”
“It’s amazing the prison will not tell family members anything about Erik’s situation. But they will talk to TMZ and tell them crap!”
“When are you going to do something about the barbaric LWOP in the state you Govern right now @GavinNewsom? You did the right thing and abolished the death penalty in CA. LWOP is cruel torturous punishment for a person to endure. At least give a person a chance at redemption.”
“Erik was able to call me today. I will be releasing his official statement later today. He was told by ISU the investigation officers at the prison, they are going to drag this out as long as they can. They sent this incident to the DA’s office to be prosecuted.”
“Received a letter from Erik today. He seems scared of what they will charge him with in the CDCr kangaroo court. They are in charge of their own investigations. The guards seem to be taunting him.”
“I have remained pretty silent over the years about how they treat Erik inside for fear of retaliation but it stops now. This is serious and I am worried about his mental health. It’s been so very difficult for him. He has been incarcerated over 2 decades now!”
“I was going to release Erik’s official statement about what happened but next week we will be able to get a recording from him and post it to YouTube. I will tweet the link when it’s live. Thanks for all your support! It is really helpful for him to know people still care!”
Giving his take on the development, Lyle went further and described the situation his brother now finds himself in as “pathetic, disgusting, outrageous [and] unacceptable.” He added:
“All crime victims now know what to do… Buy pot, which is easily available to all in CA – and mail it to the inmate who hurt you – and make their life a living hell…”
“Give your victim impact statement – then wait for the defendant to get to state prison – then you march down to your local pot shop and put a little package together. Voila! Instant revenge.”
“Or this is some weirdo who obsesses about inmates – noooooooooo….. we have never seen that on this page – No, never!!! Uh-huh… What a way to insert yourself into their life and affect it… And then sit back and watch the fallout – since the CDC will tell you all about it.”
“Or… or… or… You are an insider. No more to be said there.”
“How the CDC could allow themselves to be manipulated like this is inexplicable.”
Analysing the matter, author and journalist Robert Rand added that his “take” on the story was:
“This is a hoax… This is fake news… After 22 years of being separated, some asshole enemy decided to F with them 2.5 years after they were reunited in the same prison… Shameful and pathetic.”
Aside from the fact that the majority who’ve taken time to study this case in detail – myself included – now in agreement that though the Menendez brothers deserved to be punished in some way for the killing of their plainly sexually abusive parents, their life-means-life incarceration is inhumane and wrong and now Erik’s isolation seems yet another example of vindictiveness.
Lyle shared his thoughts on his brother’s treatment via a Facebook page maintained on his behalf.Robert Rand slammed the decision to place Erik in ‘the hole’ as “shameful and pathetic.”Erik’s wife, Tammi, meanwhile tweeted to suggest her husband was “being railroaded once again.”She later slammed the prison’s decision as “kangaroo court” and added: “It is really helpful for [Erik] to know people still care!”
After standing up to a woman named Amber Lynn Gilles who berated him whilst doing his job, Starbucks barista Lenin Gutierrez is going to use the unexpected donation ‘tips’ he received to help others
Lenin Gutierrez was a just man doing his job. This aspiring dancer was working at a Starbucks coffee shop in San Diego, California as a barista simply in order to fund his dream. He was harming no one, but after he politely asked a ‘Karen’ (the new way of describing a “self-righteous white woman”) if she’d mind following the current state rules and wear a face mask, he was met with a tirade of abuse and subjected to an attempted ‘shaming’ on Facebook.
Unluckily for the aggressor, one Amber Lynn Gilles, her stunt backfired. Instead, she is now the one who has found herself subject to ridicule, whilst a fundraiser to ‘tip’ Gutierrez has raised an astonishing £60,000 ($75,000, €66,000 or درهم272,000) on GoFundMe.
In response, humble Gutierrez remarked:
“Everyone, I just want to say thank you for all the love and support and what everyone is doing, it is an honour to see all this happen. But I just want to remind everyone, to be kind to one another and to love each other.”
“She started cursing up a storm, she started calling people sheep and she left. And then after a few minutes, she came back and she asked for my name. I said it was Lenin and she took a photo of me and said: ‘I’m calling corporate’ and then she started cursing some more. She was cursing at everyone. And then this time, she left and this time, for good. And I thought that would be the end of it and I didn’t know it was going to come to this.”
“I wanted to become a dancer and help dancers. I wanted to help before the quarantine happened. I was a teacher for kids and I just want to be able to show dance to others and show them how much I love it and how much it affected me. If I can show that to someone else, that would be amazing. I would like it to help change their life, like it changed mine.”
“With this GoFundMe donation that everyone provided me with, I can make these dreams reality. I can fuel my passions even better now. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for it. It’s just amazing to see that I can actually make these dreams of pursuing more into dance a thing now. Thank you so much for it.”
Meanwhile, Gilles has continued to show herself to be a bigoted berk. On Monday (along with enough grammatical and spelling errors to sink a battleship), this ignoramus predictably took to Facebook to continue her tirade. On her wall, she wrote:
“I am not scarred or bothered by your ignorant fraud ass’s, not so sorry you losers got nothing better to do. thanks for the ratings. [Two fingers emoji] you all act like the terrorist organization you are.”
According to news reports, this “unlikeable” woman has gone further and is now demanding a portion of the money raised for her own rotten self. Lenin Gutierrez is too much of a gentleman to say it himself, but we very much hope Amber Lynn Gilles is royally told to ‘BOG OFF!’

Amber Lynn Gilles took to Facebook thinking she’d make a fool of Lenin Gutierrez. Instead, she just made an utter prat of herself.Even after the public turned on her for her vitriol against Lenin Gutierrez, she has been unable to stop. Ms Gilles would do best to simply now silence her stupid self.Lenin Gutierrez’s GoFundMe story is a positive one and he seemingly will use the money to do good for others; the case of the ‘Middle Class Heathrow Homeless’ couple Alan Lane and Katrina Smith GoFundMe fundraiser proved to be to the contrary after the pair were exposed as fakes by ‘The Steeple Times’ back in February 2015.

Previously publicity shy Menéndez brothers both speak publicly about killing their parents in the wake of the success of NBC’s ‘Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders’
Erik and Lyle Menéndez, the brothers convicted of murdering their allegedly abusive multi-millionaire parents José and Mary ‘Kitty’ Menéndez at their home in Beverly Hills, California in 1989, have generally been pretty quiet in the years since their conviction at their second trial in 1994.
Now, however, in the wake of the immense success of NBC’s eight-part series, Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders, about the case Erik Menéndez has given his first interview since 2005 to A&E. Set to be screened in America on 30th November, The Menendez Murders: Erik Tells All will also include previously unseen photographs and new interviews with family and friends.
In two trailers for the show, Erik, now 46, speaks through the phone from the Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego, California and states:
“I’m Erik Menéndez… I’m serving life in prison without the possibility of parole. I’ve heard many different versions of my life told in the media, and those stories are fictional. I think it’s time people hear the truth in my own words without the restrictions of a courtroom.”
“From the moment after, I wanted to go back in time. It was so wrong. I didn’t want my parents dead – I just wanted the abuse to stop. Years and years of pain exploded that night in an unimaginable violence. It is my own personal hell.”
“My only hope in speaking out is that people have a more complete understanding of the events that led up to my actions on the night of 20th August and really a fuller picture of what happened in my life.”
“All I can hope for is that people will come to realise that the truth is not a simple one-line explanation that many people have tried to make it out to be. That really, that my life was unfolding of a complicated life that I lived that had all of these things that came into being and that led up to what is an ongoing and enduring family tragedy.”
“The tragedy didn’t end on that night, as devastating as that night was. It didn’t end there for my family, and it continues on to this day, and that sadness is something that I am trying to make up for them and with my parents for the rest of my life. It will never end.”
A photograph of José Menéndez with his sons Erik and Lyle on his knee; references have been made to the situation of José Menéndez’s right hand to be evidence of his highly inappropriate relationship with his children
Elsewhere, on the @MenendezBrothers Facebook page this weekend, through an intermediary seemingly in his presence at the Mule Creek State Prison where he is housed in Ione, California, Lyle Menéndez participated in what appeared to be a live Facebook chat.
Aside from sounding quite upbeat and referencing how his second wife (he has married twice since being imprisoned) had visited him earlier in the day, Lyle answered a question about which Spice Girl he liked most with the answer “Posh, of course!” and stated that “no one is good enough to play [me] for it be enjoyable” of “paddle tennis” in the prison. He shared news that he is “currently re-reading Shogun” as it is “a book centered [sic] around great patience and spirit under terrible circumstances” and in response to a question about what music he likes most added: “I like the stories that country music tells so for me it is most uplifting to listen to country music. It puts me in touch with my emotions. But I do like all sorts of music.”
More tellingly, especially given he is likely never to leave prison during his lifetime, Lyle, in referencing a question about the unauthorised @FreetheMenendezBrothers Facebook page stated:
“People have filled me in. We are not affiliated with it in any way. We have told people that writing letters to the governor right now is not helpful to our release and could actually be a detriment. We know that it is frustrating to people but these are serious legal matters that have very specific avenues that require serious legal planning. I know it is frustrating and that we cannot stop people, but what I am saying now are my wishes.”
Plainly this statement shows that Lyle still has hope that he could actually be released and given that the allegations of appalling abuse and sexual assault by their parents seem to be finally attracting worthy examination also, it does indeed seem time that the severity of the duo’s sentences again be looked at.
