I called the police yesterday to stop an enraged thug choking and dragging a young woman through an open-air parking lot in a strip mall.

I had no idea what I was doing. I had no idea that four hours re-arranging supplies, clearing out old stuff, and building shelves could have such power. I naively, ridiculously thought I was going to help “someplace where people can get a few cans of soup to help fill the pantry.” The University District…
