When Michelle Obama warned in her Democrat Convention speech, “we’ve got to vote for Joe Biden like our lives depend on it” she may have unwittingly been sounding an alarm to moms across the nation in ways she didn’t intend. Those moms could have heard on the national news the terrified 911 call of Tara Durant whose car was trapped in a mob of rampaging Black Lives Matter protestors in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Unable to get away, Durant calls 911 and is told by the dispatcher that the police can’t do anything about her plight because the protests have been “sanctioned by the city.” Becoming frantic and with her 12-year-old daughter in the car, Durant is incredulous as the dispatcher calmly advises her to complain to City Hall. When the increasingly panicked mom says the mob is blocking her from going forward, the 911 operator responds, “Yeah, they’re allowed to do that per City Hall.” Finally, as protestors climb on her car, Durant is heard screaming and sobbing, “Get out of the way! They’re on my car! And I’ve got a little girl in the car crying! Are you kidding me? This is insane!” Finally, she can go forward and escape.
