2007 June | The Bull Speaks!

Saturday Morning Musing

It is 2AM on a hot, sticky Saturday morning as The Bull sits down to write this post. There isn’t one issue in particular that is on my mind, other than I wish my bloody back would allow me to still be in bed with Lady Beth. Let me tell you, Dear Readers, I certainly got the better end of this marriage deal! My bride is the finest example of womanhood the planet has yet seen no matter how you slice it. The Bull is a very lucky man indeed! I’m in damned good shape children-wise, too! Six, (yes 6), beautiful kids ranging from 5 to 20 years of age. Three sons, three daughters. How fortunate can a man get? Yep, my herd is fine and strong. We are a force to be reckoned with, and I’m a happy man.

You know, this blog has been very good for me. Becoming suddenly disabled some five years ago wrecked my self-image every bit as much as it wrecked my personal and financial life. Writing, both on this blog and elsewhere has given me something that I can do even on the ‘bad days’ when my body just can’t do the physical things required by my other hobbies of shooting, fishing, and ‘experimental archeology’, (i.e. Living History). Seeing The Bull Speaks! grow from an idea and a desire to tinker to the blog it is today has been most gratifying. The Bull is looking forward to several more years of bellowing “Defiance of Tyranny” to the internet world. It was there fore very nice to be nominated for three Blogger’s Choice Awards. I don’t know that I’ve got the readership to even make a good showing in any of the three categories, but it is damned nice to be in the running. If you want to vote for this blog then you may do so by clicking on the links in the sidebar to your right. The Bull will be forever grateful.

Our Rescue, (Chaos & Critters, (a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Mobile, AL specializing in exotic pets)), is doing well. Slow on donations as always, but we squeak by. By the end of this weekend we should be down to only two adoptable snakes. One Red-Tailed Boa and one Argentine Boa. It is a good feeling seeing these beast going to good and loving homes at last. They come to us often sick or abused and after much time and care making them whole again it is sometimes hard to send them out the door. It is even harder knowing we are one of only four or five very small rescues that accept reptiles in the entire United States of America. Folks seem to think nothing of throwing away the reptiles in the pet trade even though better than 95% of these creatures are captive bred and far from their native environments. The creatures suffer, starve, and die. Worse, in cases like those in the Florida Everglades certain species do not die but become a major threat to native species. In this instance I speak of Burmese Pythons breeding well and then hunting and feeding upon the American Alligator. Oh well, we do what we can. If anyone feels the need to donate to our cause then by all means visit the link to our website and make a donation via PayPal. We are also listed on iGive for those of you that do most of your shopping online. Remember: Your donations are 100% Tax Deductible!

Well, that is enough to make me once again ready to doze for a bit. I think I’ll try to sneak back to bed without awaking my bride or the Shih Tzu that is undoubtedly in my spot.

Bull, out.

Dante’s Inferno and Where The Bull Landed

It must be one of those days… I’m finding silly little things on the Web to take my mind off of the news about murdering cops and Paris Hilton being released. Here is the latest, found by my friend, Shawn the Stalker.

Seems that Yours Truly, The Bull, has only a somewhat better than even money chance of surviving a zombie attack. Mainly due to the spinal cord injuries. However, my prowess with martial arms of all periods would likely make the difference.

Jesse’s ‘Alledged’ Killer Cop to be Arraigned

Jesse’s ‘alleged’ killer, Bobby Cutts, Jr., is to be arraigned today on two counts of capital murder. The State of Ohio will be seeking the death penalty. The news channels are also all abuzz over the word that one of Cutts’ high school friends, one Myisha Ferrell, will also be arraigned on charges in this case, though as of the time of this writing those charges do not include anything but making false statements. Time will tell if she becomes more of a serious player in the events to come.

Folks, The Bull hates to tell you I told you so, but I told you so!

What we have here is yet another case of Law Enforcement failing to properly police itself.
This murderous P.O.S., Cutts, has been a problem in the community – and especially to women – for years. Even before he put on the uniform he was a problem and he only got worse once he had the shield to hide behind. This guy even once gave his service weapon to his cousin! Yet Cutts remained on the force. Far too often those who become police officers are the losers in society, or the bullies. That just makes things that much harder for those truly brave men and women in blue to make our streets safe for the law abiding citizens. As stories like this one arise the trust in Law Enforcement declines. Perhaps with good cause.

Don’t get me wrong! America owes much to that ‘Thin Blue Line‘. When a REAL American Hero in Blue falls we are all reduced. What we fail to remember is that the job of the police is not to prevent crime. They are not here to ’serve and protect’ no matter how many times that it is printed on the patrol cars. The real mandate of the police is to investigate crime and bring in the criminals to face Justice. Friends, that is after the crime has occurred! The hard Truth is that it is up to us – the average citizens – to prevent crime.

Sadly, Americans have become increasingly dependent on government to do everything for them. We expect the government to educate us, to house us, to feed us, and to protect us. America is basically a welfare State.

But who protects us from the ‘protectors’?

The Bull is willing to go out on a limb here and say flat out that had this case not been picked up by the national press, (and believe me, I hate to give the traditional press credit for anything), Cutts would have never been charged. The police in Canton had too much to lose and, of course, will do anything to protect their own.

I’ll be interested to see what defense this murder ’suspect’ will offer. Methinks he will say that he is being framed because of Civil Rights case versus the Canton police in which he is a witness. Horseshyte! (The Bull says to watch for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to soon rear their ugly mugs into the media light.)

We’ll all need to wait and see how this case turns out, but one thing is for sure – this should be a wake-up call to police departments across America to take a hard look at who they are arming and sending out into our streets.

Bull, out!

Beautiful, Pregnant, Missing, and Found!

CANTON, Ohio â€??? Authorities on Saturday arrested the boyfriend of a missing nine-month pregnant woman on murder charges and said they recovered a body believed to be hers.

Jessie Davis has been missing for a week from her home, where her 2-year-old son was found alone, his diaper dirty, bedroom furniture toppled and bleach spilled on the floor.

The Stark County Sheriff’s Department said a body was recovered in neighboring Summit County at 3:30 p.m. Saturday. The sheriff’s office did not give a location but said they believed it to be Davis.

Television news footage taken from helicopters above Cuyahoga Valley National Park showed authorities carrying a body bag on a stretcher and loading it into a white van.

The aerial views also showed investigators riding off-road vehicles to reach an area of the park that is heavily covered with trees and brush.

Roger Riggins, an investigator with the Summit County medical examiner’s office, confirmed a body was found at the southeast edge of the park.

Davis’ boyfriend, Bobby Cutts Jr., 30, is to be arraigned Monday in Canton Municipal Court on two counts of murder, including the unborn child, the sheriff’s department said. Davis was due to deliver a baby girl on July 3.

Told ya!

Bull, out!

Monster Mom Sentenced

Another scum bucket was sentenced to a possible 110 years in prison for engaging in sex acts with two young girls, ages 15 and 12. The mother of the 15yr old was actually renting out her child to this scum so he wouldn’t leave her while she wasn’t capable of servicing him herself!! This un-holy bitch should be sentenced to life without parole at an absolute minimum, but of course our ‘Justice’ system will not allow the punishment deserved for either of these monsters.

Here’s the story in full from Fox…

MUSKEGON, Mich. â€??? A Muskegon Heights woman was sentenced Monday to 12 to 22 1/2 years in prison after authorities said she used a written contract to arrange for her 15-year-old daughter to have sex with the woman’s boyfriend for two months while she recuperated from abdominal surgery.

The 41-year-old woman, whom The Associated Press is not identifying to protect her daughter’s identity, in April pleaded ‘no contest’ in Muskegon County Circuit Court to three counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct. A ‘no-contest’ plea is not an admission of guilt but judges treat it as a guilty plea at sentencing.

“What you’ve done to your daughter is one of the worst things I can think of,” Judge Timothy G. Hicks said at the sentencing hearing.

Authorities said the woman agreed to the arrangement because she feared losing her boyfriend, Michael Fitzgibbon, while recuperating from the operation.

Fitzgibbon, 37, was sentenced in March to up to 15 years on each of four counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct after prosecutors said he, the woman and her daughter signed the contract. Fitzgibbon was also sentenced to 12 to 25 years for each of two other cases involving first-degree criminal sexual conduct charges involving a 12-year-old girl. He is serving the sentences at the same time after pleading no contest to the charges in February.

Too bad that the 119 year sentence is only the possible maximum.

Bull, out.

Beautiful, Pregnant, Missing: UPDATED!

This story is everywhere, but I swiped this bit from Fox…

Foul play could be involved in the case of a missing pregnant woman, Ohio police said Monday, as they subpoenaed her cell-phone records and those of her married boyfriend in order to determine what happened to 26-year-old Jessie Marie Davis.

Davis’ house showed no sign of forced entry, but her cell phone, comforter and sheets were missing from the residence, Stark County Sheriff Tim Swanson said. Her purse and vehicle were found at the home.

The father of Jessie Marie Davis’ toddler and unborn child is Bobby Cutts Jr., a Canton, Ohio, police officer. Both Cutts and his wife, from whom he separated in February, have been questioned and are not suspects, police said.

“Foul play could be involved…” You think? What was your first clue?

Let’s review…

Jesse has one child already by a local cop, (the boyfriend mentioned above who happens to be married to someone else).
Jesse is pregnant again by said cop.
Said cop has informed his wife that he is leaving her for Jesse.
Said first child was left alone – but unharmed – in the home.
No forced entry. Cop/boyfriend has a key.
Said child spoke to his grandmother of violence occurring.
The toddler, 2-year-old Blake, told the police ‘Mommy broke the table, and Mommy’s in the rug.’ according to Chief Detective Perez.
Chlorine bleach has been poured onto the floor.
A large comforter has been removed from the bed and is now missing.

What ever made you nit-wits in the Stark County Sheriff’s Office think something ‘bad’ might have happened?

Why don’t you guys simply get with the program, drag in the boyfriend/cop (and his wife) and the try the ol’ “third degree” on ‘em? The Bull knows why! Until all other opportunities for finding another patsy to lay the crime on, or for this story to fade away the police will never point the finger at one of their own. The big blue wall of silence remains.

While she knows quite well that fidelity and truthfulness are not well developed in police officers, Lady Beth is convinced that it is not the cop himself that committed the crime, but his estranged wife. Her belief is that the wife confronted Jesse, a struggle ensued, and something happened to Jesse.

My eldest spawn thinks we are both wrong – and both right. That events unfolded as Lady Beth said, but that the cop/boyfriend, Cutts, came in on the clean-up and disposal of Jesse’s remains.

In all three scenarios the explanation of the elder child being left alive is covered. The toddler is the cop’s son and he couldn’t kill his son – &/or – the wife’s argument was with Jesse, not the child.

All of this is pure speculation. Monday morning quarterbacking at its worst. (Even if it proves out to be true.) Until Jesse is found we can not know for sure what happened in that house. To that end The Bull is posting the following photo and description of Jesse along with contact information for the Stark Co. Sheriff’s Office. Let’s find Jesse! Hopefully alive and well. Either way, finding her is a huge step towards finding the person or persons responsible for her disappearance and little Blake being left alone for a day and a half.

Jesse Marie Davis

Jesse Marie Davis is described as a 5-foot-4-inch-tall white woman with brown hair and hazel eyes. She is nine-months pregnant and weighs approximately ~~135~~ 170 pounds. (Change in weight due to pregnancy.) She is believed to be wearing pink Victoria’s Secret sweatpants and a matching camisole top with “Ooo La La” printed on it – a Victoria’s Secret pregnancy set, apparently.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Stark County Sheriff’s Office at 330-430-3818, a number dedicated to Jessie Marie Davis tips. An eTip page on the department’s Web site has also been set up at http://www.sheriff.co.stark.oh.us/mr070616%20etip.htm .

UPDATE: Before joining the Canton Police Department in 1998, Bobby Cutts Jr. was charged with aggravated criminal trespass for breaking into another woman’s home (yet another one of his ‘conquest’ with which he has a child) and pleaded no contest, The Repository reported. He was found guilty and placed on three years probation, according to the paper, and became a police officer in 2000.

In February 2003, he was fired from the force after an investigation into how his cousin had wound up with Cutts’ weapon, The Repository reported. Cutts said the weapon was stolen, but police determined he had given it to the cousin. He was later reinstated, however, after an arbitrator intervened, according to the newspaper.

Someone explain to me why Bobby Cutts Jr. is still a police officer. Please?

Bull, out!

The Hunt for Pedophiles goes Worldwide!

LONDON â€??? British police, aided by U.S. authorities, have smashed a global Internet pedophile ring that broadcast live-streamed videos of children being abused, investigating more than 700 suspects worldwide and rescuing 31 children in a 10-month probe, officials said Monday.

Some 200 suspects are based in Britain, said the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Center, a government agency. Of the 31 children, some only a few months old, more than 15 were in Britain, the center said. British authorities would not give a breakdown of where the other suspects or children came from, but said more than half the suspects in Britain were already being prosecuted.

Some seven hundred suspects in thirty-five (35) countries. No telling how many tens of thousands of violations. DISGUSTING!

Still, that is 700 cowardly bastards that will face punishment – many in nations not near so forgiving as the United States of America. In at least one case the scum was sentenced to an ‘indeterminate’ sentence. In other words, he’ll stay in prison until the day he can successfully convince the court that he is no longer a threat to society. The Bull kinda likes that. Not as much as a .45 caliber slug to the face from five feet, but it will do until the ‘Powers-that-Be’ put me in charge.

I’ll be keeping an eye on this as it develops and bring you updates accordingly. And remember, hunt down a pedophile yourself and feel the sunny goodness of seeing scum go down the drain.

Bull, out.

Father’s Day 2007

Here we are on Father’s Day 2007.

I never dreamed I’d live long enough to see it. The real funny part is that I never seem to get used to the idea of being one of the ‘fathers’ that Father’s Day commemorates. That despite being the father of, (at least), six children. Strange, isn’t it?

I always think of the two Fathers and the one Grandpa that taught me so much. I also think of those grandfathers, great-grandfathers, and others that I never knew personally.

There was my bio-dad, Roy Clarence Jones who is much missed. More so every year I get older.

There is my step-father James Albert Middleton. Still there for any of us that need him, and always looking after Mom. Pop, I love you.

And I can’t fail to mention my ol’ Grandpa – Homer Davis Chappell. Oh! The things he taught me. I never even noticed I was being taught anything at all until I was in need and found myself using something Homer showed me. His little “Watch this…” sessions helped me get through some mighty sticky moments.

Well, to all the fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers out there, The Bull salutes you!

Yet Another REAL American Hero

Here’s a REAL news story for you, America!

From Fox News Online…

HIGHLAND, Utah â€??? Jordan Maxwell ran the equivalent of nearly three marathons in 24 hours so poor people can get food.

The 17-year-old, inspired by a teacher at Lone Peak High School, ran all day and night Thursday. By 3 p.m., he’d pounded out 50 miles; by 8 p.m., 65.

And when he finally stopped, as Thursday turned to Friday, Maxwell had logged about 74 miles.

“I’m pretty beat,” he said with about four hours to go. “You look at that mountain and you don’t think you’ve moved at all.”

With temperatures in the high 80s, Maxwell ran the roads of Utah County to raise money for the Utah Food Bank, occasionally stopping for food and water.

He and his friends were hoping they could raise several thousand dollars but were expecting a smaller amount.

“Next year will be better. People will get inspired,” Chelsi Brunt said from Maxwell’s support van.

Maxwell’s mother, Christie Alger, regularly checked on him and brought fresh supplies.

“I’m so proud of him,” she said.

Mrs. Christie Alger, you should be proud of him! That is one fine man you are raising there in your son Jordan Maxwell. He is yet another example of what is RIGHT about America. A young man seeing a need and trying his damnedest to make a difference.

Americans are the most generous people on the planet. It is the giving spirit in America that keeps the number of starvation and exposure deaths to such a low number in our Nation. Not government spending, despite what the Liberals want us to think. It is young men like Jordan Maxwell that make a difference.

Son, The Bull salutes you!

Bull, out.

Memorable Quotes from a Bad Movie

Memorable Quotes from a Bad Movie. (Fortunately for you, Dear Reader, this is gonna be a very short post! )

Ain’t it funny how “Hollyweird” occasionally manages to allow a little Truth to come shining through the inevitable horseshyte?

One such movie is one I mentioned in a post a wee bit back, “Starship Troopers“. Lady Beth and The Bull get a kick out of watching “B”-rate monster movies and interjecting our own sarcastic commentary as the bloody thing plays. In this one the Earth finds itself under attack from, of all things, giant insects from the planet Klendathu in another solar system. Why? Who knows? Although there is some mention that the ‘bugs’ think there isn’t room enough in the Milky Way for both races. The ‘bugs’ wipe the city of Buenos Aires off the map and the fight is on.

Wouldn’t you know it? As bad as this flick is, there are quotes unbelievably useful in present day America where we find ourselves in a fight paralleling the fight that Earth finds itself in during the movie. A fight against an Enemy (the Islamo-Fascist) that things there is not enough room on the planet for both belief systems.

Here’s a couple for you to chew on for a bit:

Dizzy: “My mother always told me that violence doesn’t solve anything.”
Jean Rasczak: “Really? I wonder what the city founders of Hiroshima would have to say about that.”
[to Carmen] Jean Rasczak: “You.”
Carmen: “They wouldn’t say anything. Hiroshima was destroyed.”
Jean Rasczak: “Correct. Violence has resolved more conflicts than anything else. The contrary opinion that violence doesn’t solve anything is merely wishful thinking at its worst.”
Johnny Rico: “Mr. Rasczak, I want to join the Federal Service and become a citizen. But my Dad thinks I should go to college and remain a civilian as he has. What should I do?”
Jean Rasczak: “Figuring things out for yourself is practically the only freedom anyone really has nowadays. Use that freedom.”
Johnny Rico: “Someone asked me once if I knew the difference between a civilian and a citizen. I know now. A citizen has the courage to make the safety of the human race their personal responsibility.“

I made that last quote bold in order for everyone reading this blog to see it plainly for the Truth it is. When our very existence is being threatened by enemies, be they ‘bugs’, or towel-wearing thugs seeking nuclear weapons it is every citizens duty* to stand and fight that enemy.

So, The Bull leaves you with one last thought from Starship Troopers before going on to the ‘real world’ once more…

Johnny Rico: “These are the rules. Everybody fights, nobody quits. If you don’t do your job I’ll kill you myself.”
