I can tell you are probably a big city kid where everything is dressed up and quite socially proper. Probably have never been around many rural people and certainly not rural mountain people.This guy looks like he's been stoked up by politics to the point where he will become a bad guy with his guns. The police should at least be proactive enough to check if he owns an AR15 or some other weapon that people in his contition shouldn't have.
Also noticable is that he's a skinny little guy who fits the description for an AR-15 owner.
Knowing folks in the affected area do not make a person's posting more or less legitimate.

Appeal to Authority Fallacy | Definition & Examples
Appeal to authority fallacy refers to the use of an expert’s opinion to back up an argument. Instead of justifying one’s claim, a person cites anwww.scribbr.com
Buncombe County is also probably the most populous county in the hardest hit area and Asheville the largest city in far western NC. with more than 90k population putting it squarely in the urban, not rural, category. Naturally it will have more resources and get more attention in relief efforts. I do not at all minimize the devastation Asheville itself sustained but I can believe that it is receiving good response and resources in the aftermath.Video was nonsense. I couldnt make anything of it. Most curfews ended two days ago. There are roads restricted for recovery vehicles. The guy was all mumbo jumbo. You want to know the reality? Go here:

No, you're wrong.I can tell you are probably a big city kid where everything is dressed up and quite socially proper. Probably have never been around many rural people and certainly not rural mountain people.
It's the small and skinny billies we should be concerned about. Ya'all can just suspect that he'll have an AR to make up for his small personal equipment.This guy is exactly what they are like. They tell it as they see it, like it is. With passion, emphasis and profanity. And they are not any more likely to grab an AR-15 and go shooting people than you are.
Shame on you.
Okay so you're just trolling. Again shame on you.No, you're wrong.
It's the small and skinny billies we should be concerned about. Ya'all can just suspect that he'll have an AR to make up for his small personal equipment.
Absolutely racist what is being done down there
It's a way to kill the whites living there and move in more third worlders.
It's being done with cream whip.It's a way to kill the whites living there and move in more third worlders.
That's the way it goes...Absurd to think that these agencies can declare the ongoing successful help as “unqualified”
stop using peoples misfortune to stroke political hate.
