ENCINITAS, CA — Disturbed by empty store shelves and reports of hoarding during the *********** ******, a man stood on a Southern California street corner and held up a homemade cardboard sign with a simple request: “Share your ****** paper.”

Jonny Blue told the San Diego Union-Tribune on Saturday that the response to his impromptu ****** paper exchange in Encinitas was immediate and positive.

Drivers honked horns in support and stopped to drop off rolls of ****** paper. Just as quickly, Blue would hand rolls to those in need.

Blue, a physical therapist, said he plans to be out on the corner again Sunday to “encourage people to be better” amid the global ********.

Blue gave a few rolls to a grateful motorist who said he came up empty at several stores.

“He was like, ‘Do you want me to pay you?’ I said, ‘No, man. Somebody gave it to me. Take it.’”

The 33-year-old told the newspaper he made his sign after a friend had a difficult time finding diapers and essential supplies for his kids.

“I think people want a sense of community,” Blue said. “When things are really challenging, people are looking to band together and be unified.”
