I walked to Chimney Rock for answers... Hurricane Helene Aftermath
YouTube ^ | October 4, 2024 | Mark Huneycutt

I think a lot of people won't know what conspiracy I'm speaking of but it went viral so I had to ask questions to clear the air. It was starting to cause anger and confusion about what was REALLY happening in Chimney Rock. I was embarrassed to even ask the workers there but I did. Our focus shouldn't be on taking viral conspiracies as FACT but focusing that energy on helping the people of this region. I did 10 miles on foot this day to get to Chimney Rock. It wasn't easy. Anyway, resources below:

Reports that there are dead bodies in the streets, that there is an awful smell, that the federal government is implementing eminent domain are all wrong. Some really good coverage of what happened and what the area looks like now.

Thanks for sharing. I fast-forwarded through some bits, but good overall.

This guy is good, fantastic video.

Normally I avoid videos but this isn’t a narrative and his scene video recording is first rate.

That’s first rate “man-on-the-scene” reporting right there...far superior to the billion-dollar remotely-produced garbage peddled by the big news networks.

This fellow went to one area that is being worked on.

He was stopped before he could go farther so don’t think his account is how it all is there.

Of interest though is this.

There are a lot of YouTube videos on FreeRepublic but YouTube donates and supports the left. Laura Loomer’s YouTube channel was just made private by YouTube against her will in an effort by them to silence her.

Kinda think it would be better not to support YouTube. At least on here.

Thanks for posting the video. Unimaginable what those people went through.

Looks to early to tell.

Not enough heavy equipment seen.

Army Corp Engineers should be seen, and they aren’t.

No teams seen on the ground.

Was going to post this. Saw his video yesterday.

Mark showed that the story about Chimney Rock was not true, but it’s obvious that the devastation is incredible. He had to walk in, couldn’t get his ATV in from his direction.

And as for no dead bodies in the street, that’s nice. There’s still a lot of people up those hollers on dead end roads that are now impassible. What’s the story up there?

My take was that some stuff is hyperbole, but the destruction is not. And the death toll is going to keep going up as access is opened up. And there are hundreds if not thousands of people who COULD be reached by helicopter, but most of the choppers are private, and not near enough of them.

The official climate change TV station also known as the Weather channel, just had an interview with a former NAS CAR driver

This is why I have two weeks worth of water, one month of goods with Meat, Canned Potatoes and canned vegetables. When I was a kid we had no power, water or sewage for ten days. I learned in the Boy Scouts to be prepared. IMHO.

I’ve seen a few stories about the aftermath of Helene.

Clearly, it’s a tragedy and the Biden Admin is useless. Harris is on par with Quayle and Biden as the dumbest Veeps ever.

The MSM lies/covers up for the Admin.

HOWEVER, every rando on Twitter posting whatever isn’t Buckhead.

I’ve seen a few sensational Twit claims that find favor with Deplorables, that upon inspection are baseless. Here is a simple one from https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4269024/posts

-snip-

Breaking:

NC State police issue statement that they will start arresting any federal employees trying to stop or hinder rescue operations.

2:04 PM · Oct 4, 2024

https://x.com/CPTOshaughnessy/status/1842294699224416462

-snip-

One problem. There is no NC State police and I can’t find any such statement.

The North Carolina State Highway Patrol (NCSHP) is the highway patrol agency for North Carolina which has no per-se “state police” agency.

We have seen this Admin being hostile to free speech via telling social media what to censor in Covid. The moderators in the last Presidential debate were pro-Harris. The MSM is in the tank for Harris and hostile to normal Americans.

But there are provocateurs that feed on this kind of saga, who are hellbent on fomenting discord. Why? Because Harris et al are for separatism, for chaos, for class warfare, for bigotry, and anti-capitalism/free association.

Meanwhile, Trump is a magnet for blacks (particularly younger men), Hispanics, and is kicking @ss in polling with these groups. The only way The Authorities can try to break that magnetic attraction is to Shake the Jar.

Yeah, DEI doesn’t deliver water and supplies to those in need. But this kind of nonsense happens across government regardless of who’s in charge. Government is there to further government.

FEMA is failing because of the leadership. Keep the focus on Harris. Don’t fall prey to dopes who either can’t do basic fact-checking or may be working for The Other Side to make us look stoopid.

Yesterday, I watched this video and 5 others on the destruction in that area from hurricane Helene. It was quite interesting.

Also, didn’t see any questions to the town folk on if they’d like to see heavy military equipment here now.
