'Wall of Moms' stand between Portland Black Lives Matter protesters and federal police
A protective phalanx of mothers has assembled in Portland to form a barrier between children who have , for 50-somethings days, burned, defaced, torn down, and defecated upon all manner of public property, and the law enforcement officials who would dare to deprive them of the right to do so.
For many, this is the first hint that the world beyond the basement is not the riotous playground safe-space that they expected. When your peas touched your carrots and you threw them to the floor from your throne of a high chair, mother came to the rescue, cleaned up the mess and assuaged your grief. Now that you are 30 years old we see things haven't changed much at all.
