Yeah I am not seeing the looters in this video. I am from western, NC. What I have seen is people helping each other in Asheville and small towns surrounding the area. Ex. One neighbor had an RV they rarely used. They have allowed folks to come by and charge their phones to get in contact with love ones. I see people checking on elderly neighbors, etc. Everyone in Asheville is banding together. What news reports are showing mobs of mass looters like this is Escape from New York? Cops are not preventing people from taking necessities like food given the circumstances and cleanup and rescue has started (in Asheville) sadly in many smaller towns S&R has not really gotten underway. This is a blow to the Carolinas for sure, but Appalachians are tough. We will come back from this.
The rightful owners when able are going to make an effort to salvage what they can from the wreckage of their homes and businesses. Looters are thieves
@@kalwallingford7039you obviously don’t understand who is eligible for flood insurance and how much it actually covers. The maximum amount of flood insurance one can get for a home is $250,000. That amount of coverage costs $500/month. If one’s house and all their belongings cost $500,000, the maximum amount they would receive for a total loss, is 50% of the total value. The insurance company determines who can even purchase flood insurance, predicated on the likelihood that the property and home is at risk for a flood. The vast majority of homeowners in our region of WNC, were not eligible to purchase flood insurance. Don’t be sure quick to comment on topics of which you are completely ignorant and uninformed.
Oh my Goodness, so very tragic seeing and hearing the pictures of homes destroyed, vehicles washed away, roads and bridges gone but worst of all, the loss of lives. Sending prayers and lots of love to everyone going through this. Stay strong and i pray you will find your loved ones. 🙏🏼💕
COME ON MAN looters good lord most of you all are prob to young to remember the days where you could leave your wallet sitting on a bench and either would still be their or someone would bring it to you a HANDSHAKE was enough to seal a deal or the fact that a neighbor would help with anything you were doing in the yard or building god how i miss those days
@@AltivatedElementI’m gonna go ahead and assume by your terminology (I could be wrong, but holy shit I haven’t heard that term inside the country) that you’re outside the US. If I am correct, I’d suggest sticking to your own country’s racially-charged politics and keeping it out of ours lmao
Also for OP, honest question: before you made your diatribe of a comment, did you actually watch the video and not just read the title? I’m struggling to find these ‘looters’ showcased in this one.
OH BOO HOO did i prick a nerve honey, maybe you should also follow more then one channel and you would get a BROADER EDUCATION what is it young people say ummmm TROLL
@@Rachel.1111no, some money was used to pay US companies to hire US people to build more new better weapons for US stockpiles and we sent the old stuff to Ukraine. Kind of like giving your kids your old furniture when they move out and buying new furniture for your place.
Prayers the find the missing people.. I hope my folk arnt lost, we havent heard from them yet. I dont understand how this happened in a mountain area . Whats scarry, is this natural or was this man made ?? My heart broke when we heard of the dubai flooding like this, and they addressed it was from them trying to seed the desert , they admitted they have the technology to do this, they just didnt double check how to shut it off... What weather we had here in pa this year was record setting tornadoes over 50 confirmed ... 50... in this little 1 red light area?? Huh. Days with winds over 50mph NON STOP... Go stand infront of a fan for 1 hour... Imagine that for 3 days at 50mph.. I pray for you all, your families, friends... Love peoplez they cant take that from us ❤ god bless
This is great footage. I’ve been to Asheville several times. It’s heartbreaking to watch. Next time could you include some location information for reference?
If the guy at the 2 minute mark was looting, wouldn’t he have been carrying something? Maybe he had a business there and was looking to salvage what he could. 🤷♀️
I'm Canadian and usually watch hurricans over the years hit your country. I'm so upset that not once in 5-6 days not one rescue boat or search teams on foot with dogs, helicopters from armed services............NOTHING for these poor people. It's as if they want to wipe out all these towns and people. Just citizens helping citizens, with the sheriffs hindering the aid. Happens in Canada too with these fires, some fire fighters but any aid as far a equipment and additional men with much better capabilities helping. The government isn't coming for you. We are on our own in the next months or years.
But there’s not even anyone looting anywhere IN this video. Just some dingdong trying to get rumors started, so ignorant folks can get their panties in a wad. 🙄
I have observed people break into ice freezers and leave money for the ice and the lock!! There has only been cooperation in my town. Most people are asking how many of items are available so they dont buy more than a reasonable amount. These are still American Communities, the federal government -no where to be seen being helpful...
In the aftermath of Helene, benefit from my misfortune and do not compound your problems: beware of an outfit called “Samaritan’s Purse’. These people showed up in my neighborhood in NJ after Superstorm Sandy offering to help. I was away at the time and my wife let them in. The end result was over $10,000 in property stolen over a couple day period. SP disclaimed any liability and said they really didn’t do any background on their volunteers and didn’t even have records of who they were. So proceed accordingly
@@Luvtallhorses No, and I have the emails and taped phone conversations to prove it, including "we can't be responsible for our volunteers, but we will pray for you." Worst kind of scum.
Lot of drugs, and drug rehab centers in Asheville. They'll be looking for opportunities everywhere to pay for the next fix. It's a shame what downtown Asheville has become over the years. Kind of a hippie, drug induced, woke culture anymore. Hopefully they take this opportunity and clean it up and make it the great city it once was years ago.
I’m sure all the witches and warlocks and other spiritual “guides” who create their own realities in Asheville saw this coming and can manifest their way right out 😆
No looters here. You need to chill out on false accusations for clickbait. Maybe you’re the “looter” for making a living off of other peoples’ misery for UA-cam income. Unsubscribed.
@@thehellezell Yo brain is broke. Just bc there are some lies online does not mean everything is false. What do you want me to do? Am I supposed to believe my family is lying to me? There aren't shots going off, but plenty of threats and aggressiveness with guns being thrown around at gas stations, so they tell me. And looting. And a house 2 miles from them got robbed. Overall the community is fine and helping each other out with supplies and water and the rest.
@@JohnusSmittinisit’s hilarious because I am sure that we are strictly talking about THIS video and its misleading title that’s making others in the comments freak out about looters all over. But where are they in this video? You usually don’t make a documentary-style video and title it with something not even present in it.
@@JohnusSmittinishonestly now that I read your comment a second time, I now see that even YOUR statement is basically contradicted by the end by saying “well, it’s not SHOTS going off, but they do HAVE guns!!!1!” when you know damn well that your original comment is implying people are fighting over things WITH guns. Lmao
@@Deadrum I think you've been on the internet too long. I commented not to contradict OP but simply to say what is going on for those who are curious. Not everything is a high-school debate. You also don't know what a contradiction is. I realized maybe thehellezell read my comment to mean people are actually shooting, which I did not mean to imply (my bad), so I clarified. Specifying =/= contradicting. "you know damn well. . ." again you've been on the internet too long. Stop imputing motives and pretending to know the intentions behind every word I say. I'm not writing a legal contract here--I'm chatting.
There are, from 2:02 to 2:30 . They were some of about 20 throughout that small region in the downtown area. All looking for prescription narcotics, firearms, and valuables.
LORD JESUS LOVES YOU. JUST PRAY TO GOD AND REPENT HEARTILY TO ALL SINS. HE WILL HELP YOU, PROTECTS YOU, SAVE YOU, PROVIDES FOODS, NEEDS FOR YOU ETC. PRAY AND REPENT HEARTILY TO HIM ❤
Yeah well when the biggest grocery chains have buildings full of supplies like water and power and local officials have been caught with their pants down "looting" may be the only way to get supplies. People aren't out here stealing flat screen TVs.
The fact that you're here trying to justify looting tells me you've probably engaged in some looting yourself and got caught! Now you're trying to justify it by blaming others for having something that the looters don't have! You can't justify looting, so just quit!
Now it's finally getting cleaned up, the city is filthy and so are most of the dopeheads there, all the cities around refer to it as hippy land or dope land, I'm from Erwin I know.
Are they Looting to Get Food for Their Loved Ones? - What's the name that a restaurant shown at 3:08? - NOT saying it's right, but, if they are without drinking water, they may last only 2 to 3 days at the most. 60% of water is obtain from food. They could live beyond 3 days without food, but, not without WATER.🌍🌎🌏🌐Clean, Drinkable Water.
This was predicted & everyone watched it come in why weren’t the emergency services & federal resources staged & ready to assist with all the supplies & vehicles like air boats etc. Nothing they can do about the damage but I guess until the water goes back down that’s what they are waiting for but you think you’d hear helicopters etc.
yes, this is very horrible... but if your God loves you, He will chasen those He loves!humble you to your ways.

No, your "god" lets little babies die slowly from cancer, and where was he to protect these people? Children died from tree's falling on their homes. Drowning. In fires.
The government and insurance agencies declare that this was an "act of God." How do you reason that GOD is going to now give you solace and salvation? ??? It's like He cut off your arm, and you thank him for not cutting off your other one.
The town of Asheville with their liberal views rejected GOD and welcomed ANTIFA with open arms. So tell them to pray to those anarchists for help and see where that gets them.
