I grew up in Hudson County, NJ. Right across the river was NYC. My elementary schools were predominantly black, Puerto Rican, and Dominican. This kind of monstrous crap occurred all the time and I am talking about the 1980's. It made me tougher but I would never be able to rest at night had I put my kids through what I went through. Thank God that they moved our family to a better neighborhood in Florida, although it took six years.
