Thrown Out of Target - Harass more. Behave Less

Halburn and his 8 year old son were thrown out of an area Target a few weeks ago.
Seems the corpulent complainer spotted  WV Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry, couldn't control himself and began verbally attacking the jurist, so he and his son were escorted out of the store.


WV Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry

Halburn describes what he imagined happened,

"Target allowed Lunatic Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry to yell at my son when I told him to stay away from Loughry.
I spoke to my son - not the justice. The justice started screaming at us and even tried to intimidate Target's staff by whipping out a badge. I told the justice to leave us alone and immediately took my son away from the hothead justice and went shopping in the rear of the store. The justice continued to get in our face and continued to intimidate their staff. I asked to speak to the assistant manager about the issue and we went outside to avoid the screaming justice. I have, since, been back in the store, to shop."

A few days later he continued with his lies.
"An out-of-control Target customer and management's failure to properly deal with said customer now has (his second ex-wife) distorting the incident in a court document. When I spoke to the store GM, he was rude. He refuses to let me talk to his district manager (obvious damage control!). I am referred to Guest Relations where I repeatedly am connected to an (apparent) overseas call center where the CSRs overwhelm me with their heavy accents." 

Of course, his story is complete self-serving bullshit, as usual.


He also says Target apologized to him.
Businesses don't apologize when they throw a disruptive customer out.
 
What really happened?
When Halburn saw the justice, he started making snide remarks in a very loud voice to the kid, calling the Justice an "unethical politician" among other names, while following the Loughry through the store, causing a scene.  
The entire Target store heard him because that was his intention. He knows better than to just outright attack the guy, so he used the kid. Why not just take the boy and WALK AWAY???

This is exactly the type of behavior the WV Supreme Court wrote about when they said, " Halburn will create conflict with third parties which might scare or alarm or traumatize [the child] or place the young child in reasonable apprehension of bodily harm caused by others, or, if  Halburn is arrested yet again, might result in the child being placed in the temporary care of unknown private or public third parties until [the child's mother] can retrieve him."

This is why you'll never have custody of your son, Halburn.

Fired Again

Well, that didn't take long.

After bragging about "Getting a chance to work in some college towns in the southeast this month", It appears Halburn has lost yet another job after just two weeks.
Funny how a company that hired someone to stock gas station shelves prefers that person to not harass hotel clerks and restaurant employees while working for them.


UPDATE:
We made our post at 10:36. Halburn made this post at 10:53. Seventeen minutes later. The whole post from the courageous cat saver is a huge lie.

You know, for someone who doesn't care, he sure does talk about it a lot.

HE can't ignore it because we've been living rent-free in his head since 2009.
Looks like he has plenty of time to sit around on his fat ass and lie some more since he got fired again.

Stocking gas station shelves is not a "project."

He still can't keep those CVS Facebook lies straight.
Now he says he "quit" in March after giving notice in February.
You don't get escorted out of your workplace kicking and screaming by a security guard when you quit.

On April 12 he wrote:
"they wonder why I resigned March 1st!"

Then, on April 18, he said:
" I quit, in February"

Which is it fatboy?
Either way you've lost another job.
Once they find out what an psycho asshole you are, they fire your ass.

Election Hijinx 2016

Here's an amusing item about one of Halburn's "advertisers."
He has been running a huge ad for Doug Reynolds, the Cabell county political hack running for Attorney General, across the top of his blog since January. Reynolds is a big Halburn supporter.



Funny thing is, the campaign expenditure reports are out, and nowhere in any of Reynolds' reports do they list any expenditures for advertising on Halburn's blog, either as a straight out ad buy or an in-kind contribution.
The ad clearly states: "Paid For by Reynolds for Attorney General."
Which poses the question, who is breaking the law here?

Shouldn't a candidate for the office of Attorney General be above this sort of shenanigans?

Glenn Jeffries, who is running for State Senate, has a similar ad with Putnum Live which shows in his pre-primary reporting as a $1000 ad expenditure.

Remember, no politician who runs an ad with Halburn is fit to hold office.

Douchin' It Up In Danville

Which PsychoPublisher was involved in another hotel incident?

Since Halburn was fired from CVS, he's been scrambling to find a new job. Apparently, he hoodwinked some company to hire him and they sent him to Danville VA for some sort of training. We're not sure what sort of company would hire someone like him, but it didn't take long for the hilarity to begin. 

Halburn likes to frequent the trailer park of the internet, Topix, and post his scurrilous complaints using one or another of his sock puppets.
Here's the first of three posts that he's made so far.
Funny how every encounter he has at a hotel involves the phrase "threatened to call the police"




"Sleep Inn
Road Warrior
AWFUL SERVICE!

I travel, a lot, on business. When I was driving in, I was concerned about the accuracy of my GPS. So I called the hotel. The overnight clerk was clueless.
In the morning, I asked for directions to the local business that I would be servicing. The clerk gave me directions that took me in the opposite direction! I was late to the client!!!(The REAL location was two blocks away, but my false directions had me turn before I saw it!) When I complained to the daytime manager, she was RUDE and said, "I would have done the same thing."
There were ANTS in my bathroom.
Another guest woke me up at 4:30 a.m. with their television. The front desk handled it - but no apology. The next day, I mentioned this to the day manager, who was RUDE AGAIN!
My company had to add another night to my reservation. They faxed in the pre-paid ccard, but the day manager DEMANDED my card, and scanned it. She said, "We need to have a card on file." She was RUDE! As I walked out to my car, I commented, "Unbelieveable!" Her response was, "This is standard procedure!" She told me that the first clerk made a mistake by not taking my ccard number,(WRONG! The hotel was provided a ccard by our travel agency!) Later, I checked my account balance and found that the daytime manager SCREWED UP and BILLED ME instead of the preauthorized credit card that she was faxed by the travel agency, SHE BILLED ME! When I called the desk, I was told nothing could be done and that the GM would take care of it the next morning. I advised her that I was leaving at 6:00 a.m. and needed to have the manager call me within 5 minutes so that I could go to sleep. She did, and threatened to call the police, threatened to call my company, threatened to call Choice.(I'd already called my company! They already knew about the bad directions as I shot a picture of them and texted it to my boss!!!)
Later, they fixed the charge on my credit card. Too late. I WILL NOT RETURN!
In a previous career, I worked for multiple hotels from coast-to-coast. This hotel's service is AWFUL!!!
NEVER STAY AT THE SLEEP INN at Danville, Virginia!
I forgot to mention the unreliable Internet!"

Wow, it's really refreshing to see a hotel complaint from Halburn that doesn't involve a swimming pool.
 
Halburn is also upset he had to pay extra for cheese on his greasy hamburger. Here's his first food complaint of the week.
The most hilarious part is where he says he "travels across the country." This fucker hasn't been able to afford to leave Dunbar, much less travel across the country. When his mom died, his sister had to pay for his ticket to California.

"Ham's restaurant
Danville VA
Unknown eater
Tuesday

Great cheeseburgers. Lousy service. They also have a Swiss * Cheddar cheese option in the "build your own burger" section. But when I ordered it, they demanded an extra .75 cents. The manager was a real witch about it, too.
I travel across the country and found the Ham's service to be among the slowest. AWFUL!"


Here's his next food complaint.
Everything is so important ... Business travel, blah blah blah. 
He's a very busy businessman who is very busy with business.
He also doesn't appear to know the difference between a per diem and a reimbursement.

Is there anything that ever goes right for him? Ever?
It's mind blowing that a person has bad experiences with literally everything.
Also, stop eating cheeseburgers for every meal.




"KickBack Jack's
Danville VA
Unknown eater

I am spending a few days, in Danville, on business. My hotel recommended KickBack Jack's and told me about $5 appetizers. But when I called the restaurant, I learned that they were during "limited hours" and I was just past the 6:00 deadline for "the special" price. I spoke to the manager, thinking he would take care of a business traveler, but he wouldn't and sounded like he was reading from a script. Because I have a meal "per diem" (Where I am reimbursed) I watch my expenses.
I went to the restaurant, the next day, and the server denied they had a $5 appetizer special. At this point I nearly walked out. However, she checked with management and admitted she was wrong. I thought MAYBE we were "turning the corner."
Then I received my meal.
My "medium rare" cheeseburger was DEFINITELY rare. BARELY cooked. I advised the manager, and it took about 10 minutes to get the food replaced. When I received the replacement burger it was STILL on the "rare" side, but I didn't want to repeat the process.
Then things got MUCH better. The server was on top of her game, checking regularly and providing stellar service.
LOTS of big screens to watch the games. Not overwhelmingly loud like many sports-related restaurants.
I will go back to KickBack Jack's, but I will make sure they properly cook my meal."

If I were an employee
at KickBack Jack's, the next time you came back,  I would make sure I not only spit in your food, I'd jerk off in it too.

Stealing Material Once Again

Which Dunbar Blogger is stealing material again?

Halburn sometimes runs editorial cartoons on his little blog. (He used to have a subscription to a cartoon service but wasn't making enough money to renew it.)
He recently ran one drawn by Jim Morin of the Miami Herald and syndicated by the New York Times/CWS Syndicate.



The problem?
He erased the artist's signature and the newspaper's name.
That's theft.
It's also nothing new for him.

The version he stole and altered is on the left. The original is on the right.

Looks like another job by the Crazed Cartooner.

Excessive Noise At The Inn

Halburn is whining  this morning that his sleep was disturbed.


He hoodwinked some company to hire him and they sent him to Danville VA for some sort of training as a "merchandiser" and put him up in a motel there. We're not sure what sort of company would hire someone like him, but it didn't take long for the hilarity to begin.


Odd. He's complaining about the same thing that he did that got his ass beat the last time he was in jail.

Another FOIA Fishing Expedition

Halburn is well known for his FOIA fishing expeditions. And since the Secretary of State now has a searchable database of all requests filed with WV government agencies, his demands can now be read online.

His latest vendetta seems to be against West Virginia State University. He was demanding copies of emails and their criteria for what they constitute as working press.


The focus of his ire this time is WVSU Director for Public Relations Jack Bailey.
Once we saw the request shown below, it all made sense.

FOIA Request Items

Subject 
Inspection of Email
Details
“In response to your response to my March 16, 2016 FOIA request: As stated in my FOIA request, the author and recipient of requested emails is Jack Bailey. Additional authors and recipients can include Jerry Waters, Scott Edwards, Benjamin Newhouse, Raymond "Joe" Haynes, Steve Andes, Chris Walters, Kelli Sobonya, Bill Cole, and Mitch Carmichael. I am specifically looking for any emails that discuss Mark Halburn, Mark Hallburn, PutnamLIVE.com, DM, DH, PutnamLIES, PutnamLIES.blogspot.com, the PutnamLIES Facebook page, as well as discussion of any and all Facebook posts discussing all of the above.” “You can also add the phrases "the publisher" and "psycho publisher" to my list.”“Please see attached for two of the email addresses that I am looking for emails to and from. One of DM's email address is L****************2@gmail.com. Another could have a "tasty blends" or "Tasty Blends foods" as part of the email address.” “Other names include Lee Mays, Mark Sorsaia, Tyler Hollywood, Lawrence Smith, Cryptic Vullshit, Mark Smith, and Travis Castle.


Last month when WVSU was celebrating its 125th anniversary, we thanked WVSU for adding us to to the press list and giving us full access all to the events. The Blobby Blogger begged to be on the press list but was repeatedly denied.
That's what started his latest crusade.

Many of those who have stood up to him also get a shout-out.
Surprising that he left out Danny Jones and Judge Michael Kelly.
