Hi. After more than a decade of providing police services to the Brooklyn, NY community where Shawn Jay Z Carter raps about using his semi-automatic Mack Milli to protect his drug operation AND engaging in anti-social behaviors that caused his peaceful neighbors 24/7 fear for their personal and family’s safety, I have some thoughts, concerns and opinions about why there are so many unhappy, depressed American people, much like 2015 Grammy winner and Childhood Trauma victim Kendrick Lamar, residing in a substantial number of communities across our nation.

I try to calmly relate my experiences, though I am told my writings are not always sensitive. I apologize if my frustrations seep into the my accounts of personally witnessing child abuse, as well as its affects on developing infants, toddlers, children, teens and their communities.

Peace, Avery.
