Exclusive Report From Columbuzz!

Loaf of moldy bread from Love Chapel attacks local Columbus resident, preventing them from exchanging it for a non-moldy loaf!  Tragic!

Bob, I have bought moldy bread at the store before also. Why is this news-worthy? I will take your side when you are right but this smacks of ignorance.

It's one thing to whistleblow things that NEED to be changed but, honestly, this is just stupid.

Bob Freeman on 14 January, 2011 08:33:43

It was important enough to the person that sent the picture in that they sent the picture in.

That loaf of bread might be a big part of what they get to eat this week. A spot of mold like that ruins the entire loaf for me, and maybe to them too.

I can do without bread, because I have plenty of other stuff to eat. I probably don't eat two slices of bread a month.
Others aren't so lucky.

What's stupid to some might be an urgency to others.

I WONDER OF BOB BOTHERED TO PUT HIS MONEY WHERE HIS MOUTH IS AND TAKE THIS "REPORTER" A LOAF OF BREAD. BOB IS SO SUPPORTIVE OF THOSE LESS FORTUNATE **rolls eyes**

Wonder if it's true the California BII/SPAT wants to talk to Robert Dewayne Freeman? I'm not sure but I just sent them his information.

Adios Bob!

I hear that bob tryed to vist this place an was turned away for being to FAT to get in the showers, and hes wanting bust this place out now. TURNED DOWN
( in caps cause its true)

tried, not tryed
too fat, not to fat

And why do you know so much about sexual predator groups?

MORE ABOUT BOB said...

Bob is a sexual predator based on previous comments he has made. Bob is a sexual deviant and pervert based on his profile and comments on Interpals.

Bob is fat, probably pushing 400 pounds which is an estimate from the last time I saw him at Texas Roadhouse.

Bob's deviance and sexual perversions in all likelihood means he was turned away from the "spa" which is why he has decided to out them.

Bob has ulterior motives in everything he does but like any 10 year old, he is terribly predictable.

Yes she did. She defended Love Chapel so good for her. Why even post the article and picture? Now if someone at Love Chapel tampered with odometers, then I could understand posting an article. But a loaf of moldy bread?

'"Bob is a sexual predator based on previous comments he has made. Bob is a sexual deviant and pervert based on his profile and comments on Interpals."'

"Lies...."

Just an exaggerated opinion, not a lie.

'"Bob is fat, probably pushing 400 pounds which is an estimate from the last time I saw him at Texas Roadhouse."'

"Lies... right at 300"

Just another exaggerated opinion, or an "honest" mistake.

'"Bob's deviance and sexual perversions in all likelihood means he was turned away from the "spa" which is why he has decided to out them."'

"Lies... never in the place... "

Just another exaggerated opinion.

Again, another opinion, but this one is spot on.

How DARE you question the infinite wisdom of the moderators at columbutt? The moldy bread story is extremely important whistle blowing, much more important than illegally parked cars! Didn't you hear, there's an epidemic of moldy bread in Columbus! Think of the children! How will they get their PB&J sandwiches! Why isn't The Republic covering this scandal!

Anonymous said...

I didn't copy it Dude. Wish I had of. I simply asked some of the questions raised here. Why is it news-worthy? Did Bob contact Love Chapel to see how this was resolved? Did Bob offer the woman any bread (as an act of compassion).

There was NOTHING critical of Bob except to ask why it was "newsworthy." I have posted similar things there before, i.e.

AMEN SISTER AND IF BOB FREEMAN SPENT MORE TIME CLEANING THE TOILETS AT SHELBY MATERIALS AND LESS TIME ON LINE, WE WOULD HE A HAPPIER COMMUNITY.

It just gets under my skin to attack a place that their only goal is to help people in need. I guarantee you a lot of people would be hurting if Love Chapel wasn't here to help.

ALL BOB KNOWS IS TO ATTACK. IT'S WHY HE GOT HIS ASS BEAT RUNNING FOR TRUSTEE AND IT'S WHY EVERYONE IN THIS COMMUNITY WITH AN OUNCE OF INTELLIGENCE HATES HIS GUTS!

What kind of priorities does this person have? If you can pay for internet you shouldn't be taking bread from Love Chapel.

OBVIOUSLY CENSORED, THE COMPLAINANT IS A DELUSIONAL BOB-O-BOT AND BELIEVES LIKE A LOT OF OTHER WHITE TRASH IDIOTS THAT BOB FREEMAN IS THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST!

Anonymous said...

I wonder if the people who accidently got the moldy bread tried to get a new loaf. I am sure the good people at love chapel would have gotten her one. Instead they chose to send it to the "whistleblower".

Apparently it was more important to them to scream they were done wrong than to get a new loaf of bread.

I have been hungry before and relied on the kindness of a program like the love chapel for a short while. I did not get a moldy loaf of bread, but if I had, I would have been thankful for the other food they had given me. Not screaming that I was wronged.

Unfortunately, that is the mindset of some people...and apparently columbuzz followers. It also shows how despicable columbuzz is. They will show anything trying to be relevant. Its not a story. Each time they claim crap like that is newsworthy they marginalize themselves even more.

Bob has no conscience. Jeremy Kirtz has no morals. Joanna is a Bob-O-Bot and Herman is retarded.

If I were to offer myself as a journalist, I could spell nonsensical, unintelligent, irresponsible and ludicrous correctly (all synonyms for columbuzz). However, I would be seen as a fool if I offered trash as news.

Not The Captain said...

Let the record also show that I am not THE CAPTAIN although I wish I was. The comment posted on Columscum is NOT what was sent, Bob edited the hell out of it.

The actual post referred to Bob performing fellatio but stopping to go to the "spa." It also made fun of Bob's "investigative" reporting skills.

Mission accomplished "Captain," you proved, beyond any doubt, that Bob Freeman edits comments and posts under other names (John Thinkey and Jimmer Jones).

You are a putz, Bob, without question.

Bob is Jimmer Jones.

Anonymous said...

I don't believe Bob is Jimmer Jones. I believe it is Jamie Johns. He was posting with the bots a couple months ago and stopped. Probably because he has been named head of the local democratic party. The last post I saw from him was much more politically correct than Bob seems capable of writing. I think he sees the need to distance himself from, how did Joanna put it, Bob's rhetoric.

He should too. Run Jimmer or Jamie run. Bob will destroy the democratic party. This year was the first year I have ever voted a straight ticket and that was in protest to Bob Freeman being on the democratic ticket. I am likely to
do the same again should Bob have any say or place in the democratic party.

Anonymous said...

I have often thought Jimmer Jones was Jamie Johns. I still suspect this is the case, however, there is nothing to stop Bob from creating posts as Jimmer Jones.

If Jamie is smart, he will get the hell away from Bob Freeman. I don't know that the Democrats will recover from the Freeman candidacy anytime soon. Bob left a very bitter taste in a lot of peoples mouths after his campaign for Trustee and make no mistake, Jamie was pulling a lot of those strings.

Johns was Trustee many years ago and hated the fire department. Birds of a feather.

Not Running for Trustee said...

It makes one think that maybe the reason they're having the "essay contest", is to recruit a proofreader/grammatical advisor for their website.

How can they be taken seriously when they speak (type) and compose their sentences on a 4th grade level?

On second thought, even if they corrected such noticeable ignorance, there are other things about them, and their site, that prevent educated people from ever taking them seriously.

It's not easy to get a fool to understand their foolishness, or a dumbass to understand their stupidity...or an egotistical bastard to understand his arrogance.

But they can sometimes, unwittingly (without knowledge or wit, for the mentally challenged readers), serve to provide cheap entertainment for others.

Stupid people can be so funny.
Just look at what's on television for verification.

You must be very lonely inside to try so hard to be such a great man.
You don't have to be awesome to be loved. Just friendly, kind, understanding, truthful, and most importantly...humble.

It's a pity you are so far from being capable of any of these things.
It would be such a relief for all the anger, frustration, and emptiness you must feel.

Misty said...

One thing you should learn about me real quick is I speak MY mind. I am no one's robot or puppet. Love Chapel does a great job and I go there once a month with my job and know they work hard to make sure people eat. I have said a few times that the Trustee's office could learn from them how to treat people.

I have a bit of a temper and when a place that helps people as much as Love Chapel is being attacked I will defend them. Volunteers in Medicine is another place that does a great job helping people. I have been a patient and volunteered there and they do a great job helping the community. If I hear someone talking bad about them I will defend them.

When a church was hurting people and taking advantage of good people I spoke up. I try to do the right thing and because of your hate for Bob you have attacked me for trying to help people. That is wrong. Maybe all of you should volunteer some of your time you spend on here hating on Bob at Love Chapel or Volunteers in Medicine they both could always use help.

Danielle R. said...

I would like to volunteer my time, but if I said something that was taken the wrong way, or misspoke, or parked in the wrong spot, or handed someone a brick of butter that was expired, someone would call Bob Freeman, or send an email to Columbuzzkissmyass, then Bob Freeman would post my name, tell lies, and drag my reputation, and my family's, through the mud.

No thanks.

Bob is a prick who preys on anyone who he thinks is beneath him. This would be EVERYBODY.

I hope to see him wherever he goes to eat out Friday evening.
I have a few words to say to him in front of his wife and/or friends and relatives.

Let's see what he has to say, and how he behaves, when confronted somewhere other than behind his sticky computer keyboard.

Here's an idea. Someone should film him eating from their cell phone, and post it on the Internet. An act that would be right up the alley of one of the Columbuzzpuke "staff".

We can all watch how a fat, repulsive gluttonous, bastard shovels food into his piehole.

Anonymous said...

I wonder how many of Bob's anonymous complaints about the trustee's office come from the person who complained about the bread and/or her inner circle. If they wil complain about people give out free food imagine what they say about people whose job it is to occasionally say "no".

Congratulations to columbuzz for uncovering this terrible plot against the people of Columbus. I'd suggest you call "channel 6 for help" but I'd wager they have put you on some sort of "do not take seriously" list. I know at least one time you called and were figuratively laughed out of the building once they did some independent research.

Joanna said...

We can't even post here without being accused of being Bob? I was trying to clear up some of the misunderstandings. Why do I bother? I won't any more.

No Misunderstandings Here said...

@Joanna, Bob sees Mercman behind every bush and thinks everyone who disagrees with him and points out his lies and hypocrisy is his nemesis Mercman (he's probably accused about 100 different people).

Do you have any idea how many different websites and blobs Bob (and his band of self-appointed deputies) have had their butts handed to them intellectually and then insisted "I won't any more" or "I'm done"?

There are no misunderstandings at all. Quite simply, Bob is a liar and a fraud and will say anything at any time about anyone without even a shred of evidence. Bob is a waste of air and you should be ashamed of yourself for attempting to defend him and his behavior.

Joanna said...

Let me repeat. He knew it was illegal to tamper with an odometer. He did not know it was illegal to make a device to do so. He stopped as soon as he learned it was illegal.
It's illegal to smoke marijuana. It is not illegal to make and sell bongs, pipes, papers or lighters. Its the same idea.

Your exact words:
"He never sold one and he stopped the ads when he learned it is illegal to mess with odometers."

Now your story is changing:
"He knew it was illegal to tamper with an odometer. He did not know it was illegal to make a device to do so."

"It's illegal to smoke marijuana. It is not illegal to make and sell bongs, pipes, papers or lighters. Its the same idea. "

Not a good analogy. Pipes, papers, and lighters have legal uses. An odometer tampering device does not have a legal use.

But once you build a odometer tampering device with them, you are helping people commit fraud. I guess since bomb making components can be obtained legally from the store, we can all legally start making bombs and sell them on the internet!

That's because what you say is unbelievable.

"You refuse to listen to reason."

Oh I listen to reason, just not your kind. Bob's story constantly changes on the odometer deal and even though he has read the law multiple times, he still says he didn't break the law. He is a liar, plain and simple.

Just as Bob should prove someone is a thief before calling him a thief. Instead Bob makes accusations and then states "prove me wrong". You ever question him about that?

Bob's quotes and then opposite quotes prove he is a liar.

Bob has marketed the odometer devices (ILLEGAL), Bob tried to sell the devices (ILLEGAL). Bob claims he didn't break the law (LIE). Some people believe Bob doesn't lie (STUPIDITY/GULLIBILITY/BLINDESS)

You know what Bob would have done if Fred Barkes had tried to sell thieving devices. I believe Bob's appologists for the known criminal behavior would be the first people calling Barkes a criminal. They call him a criminal when there is proof he is not (SBOA Reports).

Good for you not just for standing up and defending them, but in helping there and sort of paying back the help you received. Kudos to you. Too bad many others don't follow your lead. I imagine most just want to take and not give back. I imagine they could use more volunteer help.

" When a church was hurting people and taking advantage of good people I spoke up. I try to do the right thing and because of your hate for Bob you have attacked me for trying to help people. That is wrong. "

Careful in lumping everyone together. I don't hate Bob. I don't like some of the things he pulls. I don't like his infantile behavior when he loses an argument and loses his cool, but I don't hate him. Most, if not all of my posts are calling him out, not calling him names or attacking him personally. I just attack what he says and does. Prove to me otherwise.

I have done some volunteering in a place listed here and one that is not. I should do more for sure, but don't assume I haven't.

Danielle R. said...

I would like to volunteer my time, but if I said something that was taken the wrong way, or misspoke, or parked in the wrong spot, or handed someone a brick of butter that was expired, someone would call Bob Freeman, or send an email to Columbuzzkissmyass, then Bob Freeman would post my name, tell lies, and drag my reputation, and my family's, through the mud.

No thanks."
I don't know if this is sincere, or just another way to attack Bob, but they are excellent points. Bob and his constant attacks and people who moan and complain could well get people to not want to volunteer. How many people
who give of their time do help would keep up if they are shown ingratitude, rude treatment, exposes on Columbuzz for a mistake, because they didn't give someone exactly what they wanted (not referring to the bread here, but financial assistance or something), or were not as "nice" as someone (who might have a chip on their shoulder) felt they should be. How many of you would continue helping if the hand you use to give them help is bitten? If you and your family were attacked either by name or as a group? It certainly would take away the desire and joy for a lot of us. Where will these people get help if everyone decides it isn't worth the trouble and aggravation?

One thing you should learn about me real quick is I speak MY mind.

GOOD. NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!

I am no one's robot or puppet. Love Chapel does a great job and I go there once a month with my job and know they work hard to make sure people eat. I have said a few times that the Trustee's office could learn from them how to treat people.

MMM HMMM.

I have a bit of a temper and when a place that helps people as much as Love Chapel is being attacked I will defend them.

BOB POSTED THE PICTURE OF MOLDY BREAD. PERIOD! NO ONE FORCED HIS HAND. IT WAS BOB, PLAIN, PURE AND SIMPLE! B-O-B!

When a church was hurting people and taking advantage of good people I spoke up. I try to do the right thing and because of your hate for Bob you have attacked me for trying to help people.

IF TELLING THE TRUTH IS ATTACKING PEOPLE...GUILTY I AM BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS I DON'T CREATE BOB'S MESSES, I JUST RESPOND TO THEM WITH MY HONEST OPINION.

That is wrong. Maybe all of you should volunteer some of your time you spend on here hating on Bob at Love Chapel or Volunteers in Medicine they both could always use help.

Bob is a prick.

I hope to see him wherever he goes to eat out Friday evening. I have a few words to say to him in front of his wife and/or friends and relatives.

Let's see what he has to say, and how he behaves, when confronted somewhere other than behind his sticky computer keyboard.

Here's an idea. Someone should film him eating from their cell phone, and post it on the Internet. An act that would be right up the alley of one of the Columbuzzpuke "staff".

We can all watch how a fat, repulsive gluttonous, bastard shovels food into his piehole.

Another post to the spam folder. I will continue from there here.

After I posted that one, it occurred to me to respond further to the comment about why don't we volunteer.

Misty, I responded that I have, but should more. I also gave you some props for doing so. I think there are many who are serviced by there and others who are not working and cannot find work who SHOULD volunteer there. They could give back and help others. Maybe then, they could expand who they help. Also, maybe the people who whine and complain (who surely aren't helping) would see what it is like to deal with certain people who are ingrates and demanding. Maybe then someone could post on Columbuzz complaining about them.

Joanna said...

We can't even post here without being accused of being Bob? I was trying to clear up some of the misunderstandings. Why do I bother? I won't any more.

Funny, you still did afterward. I may be wrong. I didn't outright accuse like Columbuzz does. I simply asked the question. According to Bob, if I had said someone reported it, it would be okay to say. My bad. Let me rephrase that, "it has been reported that Joanna is Bob. Is that better?

I only said something like you sounded like him in certain phrases or attitudes. I think I intimated that you might be him. I guess I should have done it the Columbuzz way. Could Joanna be Bob? According to you guys, asking questions is okay (even if unfounded accusations are contained within the questions. So, I guess I did it right now.

I agree about Bob calling everyone who challenges him as Merc. I also agree you made some decent points at first or at least even if we disagree, you were civil and attempted to explain your views. At least you can do that here. We can't there because we are accused of being Merc, accused of stirring, have posts changed or deleted, have our IPs or locations outed etc. Who wants to deal with power mad and corrupted people in charge? Not me. Anonymous is right that the discussion is happening here. It should possibly be happening over there, but some of the people in charge and practices over there force us to have the discussion over here. This site shows what yours could be if things had been different. Then again, Bob doesn't take kindly to discourse unless it is to lick his butt and blindly agree. At least it seems that way for the most part.


I also agree with Dude that the odometer busting device's sole use was to cheat and steal. Why can you not see that no matter what it was made out of, it was made to cheat? A house can be legal, but using a house for prostitution is not. There is no other use for the odometer device. It was made to defraud.


Thanks Dude for the props on my points to Joanna. You are right, she never attempted to debate or respond. I am not attacking as we are accused. I am making points that have been ignored.

NotDudeNotJeffBarkesNotMerc said...

Another one in the spam folder. (Two this morning).
I agree that the first thing to do is to respond to Love Chapel about the bread. Then, wait and see how they reply. Give them time to fix it. If they continue to hand out bread are told again and it continues, then go up a step in the organization. If after continued attempts to get the situation fixed, THEN maybe go to Columbuzz or somewhere to get it remedied. What they did is like going to the FBI and reporting that a three year old child accidentally took a piece of gum instead of taking to the parents. I am in no way equating Columbuzz with the FBI as Columbuzz doesn't do the good the FBI does and are not sanctioned by the government. My point is to show the extremes they went to instead of going to the proper channels or order of getting things rectified. Perhaps I should have used the Republic instead.

Another example (and perhaps better) would be getting an undercooked sandwich from a restaurant (when you have never before) and instead of going to the clerk (or even the manager) calling the board of health. You should give the organization the chance to fix the problem before going elsewhere.

"You should give the organization the chance to fix the problem before going elsewhere."

Exactly! Something as ridiculous as a single loaf of moldy bread should not be posted on columbuzz. columbuzz should be the last resort, not the first.

LOATHES COLUMSCUM said...

Bob and his ilk have found a new place to hide, albeit on-line, so they can continue there non-stop diatribe against anything and everything that they see as being wrong.

It's ironic in a way that they all see things the same way yet are a very small minority of the people in this community. The "bots" are just as delusional as Bob Freeman.

Bob has not proven anything except his propensity for lies, falsehoods, hearsay and innuendo. He ran a campaign using the same mantra and got his ass handed too him. The result is Bob has rallied a few more disenfranchised idiots who will follow him blindly and agree with damn near everything he says, every premise he accepts without question.

The idiots at Columscum think they are doing all of us a service, in the same way Bob tried to "save us all" from the Columbus Township Trustee. When we point out that they are WRONG, we get the same reaction from them we did from Bob.

WE are the delusional, ignorant people who could use direction and Bob and the bots have ALL the answers regardless of what the answers are. No one made these people in charge of anything, they set themselves up as the experts on everything and the agitators to stir the shit.

They are trash. The trash of Columbus on a trashy web-site. An orgy of malcontents and misfits. Thank God they are on line and not in front of me in line at Dollar General or Wal-Mart!

"If moldy bread is being handed out, I would assume they would want to know it since they want to help people."

Exactly. Misty has said she helps there. How would she feel if she had given the bread? First she would want to know so she wouldn't do it again. Secondly, I imagine she would be unhappy if someone attacked her on Columbuzz because she handed it out. To her credit, she defended Love Chapel. However, this should make her question some of the other posts there where she might not be as personally involved. If they are wrong about Love Chapel (or at least in the way they deal with and treat them), why would you trust other things there? Some may be dead on, but it certainly doesn't instill confidence.

Dude said...

"columbuzz should be the last resort, not the first."

And I'll give props to Misty in that respect. It sounds like she and others tried to give the Miracles the chance to fix their issues, but were not successful. So columbuzz was their last resort.

Dude said...

"Thanks Dude for the props on my points to Joanna. You are right, she never attempted to debate or respond. I am not attacking as we are accused. I am making points that have been ignored."

And that's what they do. When you make valid points that they can't argue with, they are ignored. Bob is perfect. He does no wrong. The odometer thing was just an innocent mistake, a misunderstanding. Bob had no idea it would be used illegally.

NotDudeNotJeffBarkesNotMerc said...

"Exactly! Something as ridiculous as a single loaf of moldy bread should not be posted on columbuzz. columbuzz should be the last resort, not the first. "

I believe this is indicative of many (not all) of the people who are assisted at Love Chapel, Trustee's Office, VIM, etc. They have chips on their shoulders, they are demanding, they expect to have their butts kissed, they expect to have things given with no expectations placed on them, they don't want to be put out or inconvenienced at all. Then, if something doesn't go exactly their way, they whine, kick, scream, attack, cry, whistleblow etc. What happened to gratitude, helping yourself, helping others and so forth? Misty, at least seems to be closer to the way they should be. She works a job, she helps by volunteering, she is appreciative and so forth. Good for her.

Reefer Man said...

Joanna (Bob?) said......"He knew it was illegal to tamper with an odometer. He did not know it was illegal to make a device to do so. He stopped as soon as he learned it was illegal."

WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!

HE STOPPED when Merc exposed his shenanigans and posted a screenshot of his illegal activity.
The documentation of the entire event can be found right here on this website.


Also, smoking marijuana is NOT illegal.
It is illegal to possess, distribute, transport, and cultivate.
I agree that this has no comparison to the odometer shenanigans, but just wanted to clarify facts for a Bob-o-bot.

Bob, and his ilk, don't seem to understand facts and reality.

HNE REPORTER said...

Key point> the "story" that "Bob" posted about a "moldy loaf of bread" was akin to a "bitch slap." This is typical behavior from Columbus' best known trouble-maker.

A real journalist would have interviewed the person complaining asking how this happened? Has it happened before? Did anyone eat the bread before seeing the mold? NOTHING ALONG THESE LINES WAS REPORTED.

A real journalist would have called Love Chapel and asked how this could have happened? Has it happened before? Did they remedy the situation? How much bread do they hand out daily? Weekly? Monthly? What kind of quality control do they do? MAYBE POINTING OUT THE GOOD THEY DO FOR THE COMMUNITY. Was any of this in the "story"? NO, IT WAS NOT!

What you have is not even journalism, it is "reporting by ambushing", quick with the report, even quicker to formulate an opinion WITHOUT HAVING THE FACTS.

This, my friends, is the centerpiece of what is wrong with Bob Freeman and others who see the world through his "piss colored" prism. They "think" they are "Whistle-Blowers" or do-gooders when in reality they are nothing more than trouble-making trash.

No one, except other trash reads there crap giving it any real credence whatsoever. We, who have intelligent thought and are capable of engaging in serious discourse, can point out the flaws in there mantra time and again but for ignorant people (and Columbus has a LOT of ignorant people) Bob and Columscum will continue to be the under-belly of this community.

NotDudeNotJeffBarkesNotMerc said...

Dude, I do see the possible difference in "I don't lie" versus "I have never lied." The first could be meant as "I don't lie with "anymore" possibly being implied or "I no longer lie" being what he might have meant.

With that said, I highly doubt that Bob still no longer lies. Not only on bigger things (which I think he probably does at least at times), but other things like "I will no longer post here", "the anonymous posts that sound suspiciously like me are not me", "you don't look fat in that outfit", "no, I wasn't the one who farted" LOL you get my gist.

What Bob means by the lie thing is that he refuses to accept that he is capable of lying (denial). So when he lies, he doesn't believe it's a lie, therefore it is not.

NotDudeNotJeffBarkesNotMerc said...

Scenario: Johnny sticks his tongue out at his sister, Joanna, while they are in line at the Trustee's Office with their mother.

Joanna calls the Republic.
Republic male at newsdesk: "Have you talked to your parents, sweetie? I'm sorry, we can't help you here."

Joanna reports to Columbuzz and this is the result:

"11 year old Johnny Smith, 123 anywhere lane, social security number 555-55-5555 who attends school at Such and such Christian school stuck out his tongue at his sister while in the Trustee's Office. The clerks there (after giving them dirty looks and looking down on them when they walked in the door) ignored the problem. D**n that Fred Barkes. His @*$* wife, Sandy probably put Johnny up to this. It is just the thing she would do like the thing she did st the funeral, the evil b%^&h. She is such a c&^t. Someone should knock her on her @$$.

Could Johnny have had incestuous thoughts on his mind? Was it sexual? I think he wanted to french kiss her and perform sexual acts on her. The little pervert. This shows how Christians really are. Nothing but hypocrites. They are all alike. I know people who are atheists who are better than this. He is probably related to Merc (Charlie Townsend) somehow.

The city refused to make the Christian Schools teach sex ed (separation of Church and state doesn't apply here since we are making THEM do something) and refused to pay for counseling to help poor, innocent, Joanna deal with the trauma she endured at the hands of this beast. But that @%$$ Fred Barkes will give all the money to the #@*& Fire Department and not to help the poor. Where was the fire department in this? they have a station close by. They were probably following Rodney Ferrenberg's lead and on vacation. Rodney's wife, Brianna probably sent a topless photo to Johnny and started him down the path of being a sexual deviant.

The Repulsive tried to sweep this injustice under the carpet. They are probably protecting their cronies Fred and others. If it had been someone rich and connected, they would have stepped in. The male reporter came on to Joanna as he called her "Sweetie". We know what that really meant.

Well, we aren't going to ignore it. I, Bob...I mean we are there to be the saviors of all mankind and the protector of those who have no voice elsewhere.

Update: We have just learned that a police car drove by down State Street (probably from a run to the donut shop) and ignored this and someone parking illegally in a handicapped parking place there. More cronyism. They are probably afraid of losing their jobs and Fred losing his and his relatives' jobs. They are all Republicans and are worried about their party. What is being done about all this corruption? It is time for me to go undercover and prove all of this. Wait a minute. I don't HAVE to prove anything. Prove me wrong. You can't.

True, but that was partly my point but I didn't express it well. At what point in time did Bob stop lying? When he was born (which would imply that he has never lied)? When he became an adult (physically since he has yet to become one mentally)? The day he posted the statement on columbuzz? When?

Ok just want to clear something up I have never volunteered at Love Chapel but I plan too since they help the people I take care of. I have volunteered at VIM in the past, they did help me a lot around 10 years ago and they do such a great job I wanted to help them provide the great services they provide.

Bob has been nothing but nice to me and he does stories people send to him. He isn't even a Christian and put my story about Milestone on columbuzz. I also didn't see any names used in the story about the bread so being scared to volunteer is just an excuse not to help. I am sure the bread was an honest mistake with the volume of people they help with a small amount of volunteers. I bet if they had more volunteers they could have someone sit and check every loaf of bread. I think the person should of went to Love Chapel with the bread but did it really hurt anyone that the picture of the bread was put on columbuzz? I don't think so they are still giving out food and I am sure the person will go back and keep a better eye on the bread they get. I know they let you pick your own bread from the racks so it was actually the person's fault and not Love Chapels. Columbus actually has several food banks and hot food sites so no one should go hungry over a loaf of bread.

I am not going to get on here and cuss and argue anymore since that seems to be what you want. I think people should be able to have a discussion without cussing or making threats of violence against each other.

NotCharlie said...

Misty, you sound like someone who is capable of reasonable thought and discussion. While the conversation here can go into the gutter, the difference is that people here are FREE TO SAY WHAT'S ON THERE MIND without being unfairly edited or deleted to suit Bob's views.

Like it or not, Bob does not welcome open conversation. He never has.

The threats of violence always start with Bob or one of his bots. To properly see this, you would have to dig through the archives and you probably have better things to do.

Bob Freeman might seem nice, a lot of people have thought that, only to have been bitten and bitten hard by him when they asked questions or pointed out his hypocrisy.

You, Misty, are not the enemy. I admire your courage and your commitment too what you believe in. You, have not, however, changed my opinion regarding Bob. The only way for that to ever happen is for Bob to man up and admit his transgressions which are many and thorough.

All the best...

Dude said...

"Bob has been nothing but nice to me and he does stories people send to him. He isn't even a Christian and put my story about Milestone on columbuzz."

So since he's nice to you and he's helping you out, you don't care about anyone else? Can you put yourself in the shoes of someone who has received Bob's wrath? Or because it's not you, you don't care and the person probably deserved it?

"I think the person should of went to Love Chapel with the bread but did it really hurt anyone that the picture of the bread was put on columbuzz?"

Why not just exchange the bread? Posting the picture is just grandstanding, which is what Bob loves to do.

"I am not going to get on here and cuss and argue anymore since that seems to be what you want."

Actually, I'm not fond of the cussing (which you have also done by the way), but I tolerate it. And when Joanne or whoever comes on here and tries to defend Bob, I'm going to argue with them and try to prove them wrong.

"I think people should be able to have a discussion without cussing or making threats of violence against each other."

Yes they should. You should make sure to tell Bob, Herman, and Justin the same thing.

Thanks for your honesty.

" Bob has been nothing but nice to me and he does stories people send to him. He isn't even a Christian and put my story about Milestone on columbuzz."

In addition to Dude's excellent reply, bear in mind that the devil is nice to people to for a season. Not that Bob is the devil, but still. Also, not that this was necessarily Bob's motivation (it might have been), but there are probably many atheists who would be nice to you to get a chance to slam Christians or churches. I don't know if what you say they have done or are doing is true or if there if missing info. I wasn't there. I do know of some people who go there (we haven't met, but I know someone who knew them sort of thing). But, I haven't talked to anyone about it.

"I also didn't see any names used in the story about the bread so being scared to volunteer is just an excuse not to help.

No, but there are plenty of other articles where Bob or others do mention names (including the Milestone one.) So, we know he is capable of it even if he didn't this time. In fact, Bob has mentioned names at other assistance places and maybe even Love Chapel in the past when Chris Rutan or others complained because they didn't get what they wanted, "were looked at wrong" mistreated etc. Ask Lucy about his blasting Eastside and Patricia.

Wow. Personal responsibility? You don't see that way of thinking much at Columbuzz. Good for you. I never saw that in the article. It was all Love Chapel's fault.

"Columbus actually has several food banks and hot food sites so no one should go hungry over a loaf of bread."

True.

"I am not going to get on here and cuss and argue anymore since that seems to be what you want."

Why did you have to go spoil a good thing and post with this? I don't want it. I am sure others don't. Sure, there probably are some who do want to get you all riled, but not all. Haven't I and some others treated you well here? Haven't we been complimentary, debate issues, listen to you and so forth?

" I think people should be able to have a discussion without cussing or making threats of violence against each other."

Agreed and that is what I was going for on my blog. I got accused out of the gate of being evil and against Bob. I was a bit more of a censor than Dude (different approaches and each has his own idea on balancing free speech with having a poster friendly place. As stated, you have been guilty too and Bob and others from there have. In fact you and others called this site by a cuss word name. Was that productive? I add that there are some here who do the same, but you need to understand there are some at both. At least here everyone can speak their mind without threats of being outed, edited, deleted, posts changed to say something totally different, etc. I truly do appreciate your input here and you have been far more reasonable today than at some other times when you let your temper get the best of you. I could even put up with many of Bob's posts in the past (but frequently disagreed) and there were times he was mistreated. However, he also did wrong prior to that which I never witnessed, but later heard about. I also witnessed him later turn on people who had defended him before because he disagreed with them. Even people like Lucy or Chris Rutan who were strong supporters found themselves in the doghouse with him.

Believe it or not, my original plan was to remove any comments with cuss words. But then Bob came along and ruined everything by using every four letter he could think of in his comments. I had a few choices at that point:

1. Delete Bob's comments. I didn't want to do this since his comments really illustrate what kind of person he is.

2. Edit Bob's comments. Unfortunately, Google blogs does not allow you to edit comments. So I'd have to copy the comment, delete it, then paste and edit it. That would be a pain and I would be accused of editing comments, something Bob does all the time.

3. Keep Bob's comments and allow him to write whatever he wanted, but delete any others with cuss words. I felt this would be hypocritical and unfair.

4. Do not censor any comments at all.

I decided on a compromise between 3 and 4. I would allow Bob to write whatever he wanted, but the comments of others would be deleted for excessive use of the f-bomb (and I don't mean fudge). I also delete comments that contain death threats.

Any comments on my decision would be welcome, good or bad.

DUDE> I find your "rules" very liberal (in a good way.) The subject of Bob Freeman is a difficult one to begin with. I would prefer civil conversation as well but I am not sure Bob understands civility, at all, and sometimes he pushes my blood pressure through the roof.

I find your content to be about as fair and balanced as possible (sorry for the FOX news reference) considering the subject matter. You even allow a certain amount of tongue in cheek humor which is also a great stress reliever.

I have had no problems in explaining how I feel about Bob within your established guidelines but I sometimes wonder whether we are getting our collective points across to the bots.

I agree that Bob should be welcomed with open arms to post here as much as he wants. We should also welcome anyone and everyone who supports him. Dude, you provide a forum that he, himself, does not. Bob censors everything and deletes anything critical of him. Please don't do that here. He needs to hear and see what people really think of him.

Dude, especially with your limitations, I would say you are doing about as well as you can. My post was stating what I wanted to do, not saying you had to do the same. I would say that getting together any five people running blogs (or even the same blog) and you would likely have five different opinions on at least certain things. The blog I had allowed me to edit prior to approval. I can't recall if I could after the fact or not (except my own). I had it set on default which meant a first time poster had to wait to have comments approved, but after the initial approval, their comments would post automatically.

Running a blog or forum (I suspect) takes effort, decisions being made and so forth. You won't please everyone all of the time. We see how Bob and some others get when things are approved here that they don't like. Well tough. Although I personally think the name calling, threats and such are not productive and probably most times counterproductive, I can usually deal with what is here. I just ignore or skip the stuff that isn't my cup of tea. There have been some times things go too far, but it is hard to find a balance between letting people speak their minds, and too heavy-fisted control. As you can tell, I much prefer it here.

The reason I started mine wasn't that I was dissatisfied with how things are here. It was because I had long posts that weren't always on topic and wanted a place to format better (bold etc).

"I just ignore or skip the stuff that isn't my cup of tea"

That's what I figured most people would do. If they didn't like the language, they could just go on to the next comment or not read the comments at all. My posts are mostly clean and when I'm quoting someone with bad language, I give fair warning at the beginning of the post.

Hoosiers Who Loathe Bob said...

Keeping this blog "clean" has to be difficult considering the subject matter, Bob Freeman. There is nothing "clean" about Bob. Let's get real for a minute.

The majority of the posts here, even the ones that contain filth, are 99.9% on target when describing Bob. When you are dealing with trash, you are bound to get dirty from time to time.

Bob Freeman has trashed this community, without censor, without real dialog without any system of checks and balances on Columscum. This blog is the only digital page attempting to keep him in check.

Sure, there is content here that probably is the polar opposite of Bob (but just as filthy) but people need a chance to vent on Bob the same way he vents on anyone and everyone who dares cross his path.

Thanks for listening and having this blog.

EYE ON BOB said...

In all the years I have lived in Columbus, I have never seem a more determined, ignorant piece of unadulterated human trash than Bob Freeman. Those words may seem nasty but they are fact.

This man has no moral compass he has no conscience whatsoever. He has been described as delusional, psychopath, retarded and worse. I agree. Not so much because I disagree with Bob but because there is no talking to him. Bob doesn't listen.

It is imperative to keep this man on the radar, report appropriately to the police when he goes crazy and keep an eye on your family and friends. Bob Freeman is a dangerous individual because he sees no fault in anything he does.
