funny note…
After all that has gone on at the center, I called 911 for the first time in my life last Monday.
It was he say/she say stuff going on, with lots of older girls who had brought their little kids to the center and their boyfriends making it louder.
I am learning. As soon as I saw the circle forming, I tried yelling for everyone to leave, but it didn’t work. So I walked inside, called 911, and started yelling over the loud speaker “This is a safe haven. If you are not helping to make this place safe, then leave. There are little kids here.”
Over and over. I liked hearing my voice so loud. Then I started calling out names. I called the little kids inside. I called out the guys who had taken off their shirts and were circling around. I told them the police were coming.
No blows were thrown. The police arrived and a couple people got sprayed with maice and everyone went home. One girl/woman left, remembered she had forgotten her kid, and came back.
And I called 911 instead of getting in the middle of the fight.
