Guy takes his chopper and starts running rescue. Asshole official becomes involved.
“I told him my background experience, law enforcement, firefighting, and pilot and he immediately started helping with coordination. He gave me radio frequencies to coordinate with them on, set up a landing area for me to come back with the other victim, and just basically started the rescue efforts; the policies and procedures that you would take coordinating with someone from an outside source or outside agency. And in the middle of the whole conversation and them blocking the road off, I was greeted by the – at that time I didn’t know – but the Lake Lure fire chief, or assistant chief, maybe. And he shut down the whole operation.”
...
“If that’s what you want us to do, we’ll leave no issue. And I explained to him that I left my son on the side of the mountain, and I left another victim. I was going to go back and bring them, it was already set up for the landing spot and then I would get out of his area. He told me I wasn’t going to go back up the mountain to get them, I was going to leave them there.”
...
Seidhom said he asked the official for a specific reason he was ordering him to stop his rescue efforts. “You’re interfering with my operation,” is the reason Seidhom said the fire official gave.
Yes, the asshole has been identified.
This is ONE of the incidents involving officials telling volunteers to go away, or to do nothing 'until we approve it', and so on.
Now add in this:
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitted on Wednesday that "FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season.” One reason for that is that under Biden-Harris, FEMA spent $650 million this fiscal year providing services and housing to illegal aliens. And $364 million the year before that.
There's a lot more in that post about just how effing disgusting the FEMA response has been in the past as well.
Now throw in this:

Someone needs to lay hands on the assclowns and string him up. Make an example out of him. We are LONG past the point where we can coexist with these leftists. They are pure distilled evil and it's time we start treating them appropriately.
In the case of the volunteer helicopter pilot, “You’re interfering with my operation" tells me all I need to know. They were actually interfering with his power trip. I'm an amateur radio operator and we help with communications at times. During one event (emergency communication after a flood, the fire department radios wouldn't work in many low lying areas, ours would through a repeater system), the president of one of the local clubs decided that he was going to handle all communications. When the local authorities took over (as they were trained to do), he went into a quiet rage. There were a couple of other instances where his power trip interfered with things, and now his name is only used derisively.
