The Christian Civic League of Maine's Mike Hein calls Pam's House Blend:
"a leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy."

He is "praying that Pam Spaulding will "turn away from her wicked and sinful promotion of homosexual behavior." (CCLM's web site, 10/15/07)


Ex-gay "Christian" activist James Hartline on Pam:
"I have been mocked over and over again by ungodly and unprincipled anti-christian lesbians."
(from "Six Years In Sodom: From The Journal Of James Hartline," 9/4/2006, written from the "homosexual stronghold" of Hillcrest in San Diego).

"Pam is a 'twisted lesbian sister' and an 'embittered lesbian' of the 'self-imposed gutteral experiences of the gay ghetto.'" -- 9/5/2008



Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth Against Homosexuality heartily endorses the Blend, calling Pam:

A "vicious anti-Christian lesbian activist."
(Concerned Women for America's radio show [9:15], 1/25/07)

"A nutty lesbian blogger."
(MassResistance radio show [16:25], 2/3/07)


Pam's House Blend always seems to find these sick f*cks. The area of the country she is in? The home state of her wife? I know, they are everywhere. Pam just does such a great job of bringing them out into the light.

Louise :: Press Release from Puerto Rico and More News
From Primerahora, transcribed by Chris Pagan:


The Criminal Investigations dept of Guayama is keeping under police custody the 26 year old confessed killer of Jorge Steven Lopez.

Officials indicated how Jose Bermudez the accused explained that he went into the center of town in Caguas and then after making a few attempts to pick up a prostitute allegedly Jorge went to him dressed as a woman, and Jose invited him into his vehicle thinking he picked up a female prostitute.

He said that he did not know that it was really a man and they went to his apartment in Cidra, where Steven allegedly told him to have anal sex with him, which provoked anger in him and caused him to murder him.  He also said that Steven tried to stab him, and that he armed himself with a kitchen knife and under a fit of rage he injured him, dismembered him, decapitated him and then later took his remains to Guavate where he was left.

Other allegations of the killer is that in 2003 he was arrested for domestic abuse and that in his youth he was molested and that is why he hates homosexuals.  The authorities said that this case has been advanced and successful due to the cooperation of the local GLBT community.  The agent Angel Rodriguez said that he is being interrogated and will be charged with first degree murder.  He also indicated that he will submit another request to the federal judge to have this treated as a hate crime.

At the suspects home the police found 2 knives to commit the murder, and that they were then thrown in a septic tank.

The Criminal Investigations Department of Guayama is holding Juan A. Martínez, the 26 year old confessed killer of the gay young man Jorge Steven López, in police custody.

Prosecutor José Bermúdez explained that the accused said he went to Pavial Street in Caguas on Friday and after making a few attempts to pick up a prostitute, Jorge allegedly approached him dressed as a woman, and José invited him into his vehicle thinking he had picked up a female prostitute.

He said that he did not know that the victim was really a man and they went to his apartment in the neighborhood Beatriz de Cidra, where Steven allegedly suggested that he have anal sex with him, which enraged him and caused him to murder the victim.  Prosectutor Bermúdez also added, "He (Martínez) claims that Steven tried to stab him, and that he therefore grabbed a kitchen knife and in a fit of rage stabbed, dismembered and decapitated the victim and later took his remains and left them in Guavate area of Cayey."

Among other claims by the confessed killer is that in 2003 he was arrested for domestic violence and that during his prison confinement he was molested and that is why he dislikes homosexuals.

The authorities said that this case has been resolved thanks to the cooperation of the local GLBT community.  Investigating Detective Ángel Rodríguez and the  Prosecutor are currently questioning the suspect preparatory to his being moved to detention in Guayama and charged with first degree murder.  The Prosecutor also indicated that he will request that the judge consider that this offense be treated as a hate crime.

At the suspect's home the police recovered two knives used to commit the murder, which the suspect later threw into a septic tank.

At the moment  jurisdiction over this case is awaiting the assignment of a prosecutor from Caguas, since the crime occurred in Cidra which is part of that judicial district.

Cue defense.....
....3....2....1.....gay panic.

How much does everyone want to bet? It works here on the mainland, why not Puerto Rico?

"He was a queer
and he came on to me.  So naturally the only thing I could possibly do was behead him, cut off all his limbs and set fire to the bits.  I mean, I couldn't just say 'no thanks' and walk away could I?"

I don't know a lot about Puerto Rico, but however backward a place it may be (if it is), I can't imagine this will fly even there.  But I urge everyone, if you haven't already used AmericaBlog's action center to contact the Justice Department, PLEASE do do.

Fine SLuething but what if this is not the guy?
What if this is the boyfriend or some other hay dude who was just picked up as a sacrificial lamb by a prejudicial police force looking to kill to birds with one case??  

Always thinking about it...

evidence at the suspect's house...
Reading the article, I saw that they found a burned mattress at the suspect's house along with knives.  Now, it will be a simple matter of matching traces of accelerant on that mattress to traces of accelerant on the victim's body.  Also, the knives can be forensically examined. Since it is impossible to both decapitate someone and amputate all of their limbs without leaving knife-marks on the bones, there should be no trouble matching the knife/s to this crime.  There may also still be blood-evidence on the knives even though they were in a septic tank for a short period.

Last, but certainly not least, a large quantity of blood was found at the suspect's house -- this is far and away the best evidence as a genetic match could be made that would be extremely damning with positive odds in the billions to one range.  Seems also to be a quantity of blood consistent with a decapitation and the separation of four limbs - in other words horrifically gruesome quantities.

After examining this evidence, there will be no doubt as to guilt or innocence of the suspect.

According to a newspaper article out of Puerto Rico...
He confessed to the crime.

But in a machismo hole like Puerto Rico, he'll likely get the lightest of sentences. He's already pulling the, "I didn't know it was a man and that's why I killed it." bs.

No one is free when others are oppressed!

As I said above.....
.....the "gay panic" defense. And he'll likely get off scott free.

If he's a member of a homohating cult it should be indicted as an accessory.
We need a real hate crimes laws, one with an automatic death sentence or life with no parole for murdering GLBT folks, minority folks and women in hate crimes.

And we need a hate speech law with no religious exemption that criminalizes hate speech for promoting and condoning violence.  

The looter rich much prefer working with Democrats like Obama and the Clintons - they're greedier, they fool more people and they're able to get away with a lot more than Republicans.  


He is such a member. He hangs a rosary around his neck...
According to his cult, the person he killed is "intrinsically disordered" which is a fancy way of saying 'less than fully human'.

[ Parent ]
Religion is humankind's greatest tragedy
Religion is the enemy.

It's time to tax the cults, secularize their schools, hospitals and universities and close their seminaries.  

It's time to create laws and regulations that forbid priests, imams, preachers, rabbis, mullahs or pastors near children without armed guards being present to protect the children.

It's time to arrest der Papenfuehrer, the college of cardinals, bishops and archbishops as accessories to rape, child molestation and murder.

It's time to confiscate all the wealth of the roman cult to compensate their victims.

It's time to get mean.

Yesterday looking at Jorge's photo and age
I thought there would be no way they could manufacture a gay panic against him that would be believable...yet here it is TRANS-PANIC.

f*ck,, f*ck, f*ck!

I'm glad they caught this maggot, and if there's JUSTICE, he'll never get out of a cage, or executed....(this is regardless of what the courts give him.)

ANYONE seen a memorial fund for the family?
After the nightmare he and his mother went through, I'd like to give so a funeral isn't a burden on her, or his friends.

In comments on various gay sites I saw outrage become anti Puerto Rico which I thought sad
Anyone who imagines this couldn't happen in Philly, or Boise, or Boston, or Oklahoma City, or Tampa, or Phoenix are MISTAKEN.
I know several Carribean Islands have had public demonstrations of purges, or protests against Gay/Lesbian cruises, but the hatred is universal through out America too.

yeah, looking at the orignial photo's I thought trans
For so many young people, they start to explore their gender in similar ways. They dress up in drag and go to drag shows... and yeah, some are just cute young guys that look good in makeup too.

He'll use 'gay panic' and 'trans panic'. I've been to PR a lot. Yeah, there are a lot of macho men there, but also a lot of caring mothers and fathers that will see thier own children in Jorge's eyes.  


I found this site which mentions a NYC memorial
   http://unfinishedlivesblog.com/

NYC Memorial for Jorge Steven López Mercado - Sunday, November 22 at the Christopher Street Piers (Tentative), 7 - 9 p.m. Further Information:   http://www.facebook.com/event....

Gruesome, horrific, unbelievable... believe it.
In LA in the late '80s or early '90's, in the worst years of the plague there was a series of murders of transfolks similar to the horrific death of Jorge Steven Lopez Mercado in Puerto Rico. Most of the victims were Latino/Latina. Mutilations and burning the bodies were the MO there too. The stories were never front page news in the LA Times and the LAPD didn't create a huge 'task force' like they did with other mass murderers. I don't remember seeing any news that the killer was ever caught.    

The link between LA and Cayey, Puerto Rico is the howling madness of the cults who unleash a barrage of rabid hatred 24/7/365 that prompts and condones violence.

Hate speech like that will have to be suppressed but parties like the Democrats and Republicans who cater to the cults and to bigotry aren't capable of it. How could they when Obama says gawd's on the side of the bigots and when the heads of the DNC are an ordained pentecostal bigot and a Dixiecrat from Virginia.
