He has also frequently posted under his own name in the comment sections of local news outlets such as NOLA.com. Mark is the author of "THE REALIST" a book that is chocked-full of facts regarding the downside of sending children to public schools that spend more time, energy and money on discipline rather than education. Traina's book published in 2012 has gained him both national and international notoriety for his candor, truthfulness and frankness regarding the current state of public education throughout the United States of America. Traina proclaims that "WHITE FRIGHT is always the precusor to WHITE FLIGHT"! According to Traina, many white students are fearful of the black counterparts and he makes no bones about it. Traina even sights the way many black students present in public schools as being a both danger to themselves and others, black students with no regard for anyone else's property, black students that have no interest in education and black students that refuse to obey school rules and regulations.

2012 Public Controversy • Jefferson Parish Resignation. Before focusing on independent writing, Traina worked for roughly 30 years as a child psychologist for the Jefferson Parish Public School System. He resigned in May 2012 after the Southern Poverty Law Center filed a federal complaint with the U.S. Department of Education regarding racially charged comments he posted on Twitter, Facebook, GodlikeProductions.com and NOLA.com.

• Public Response. School board officials stated he would have been terminated if he had not stepped down. Traina later issued a public apology to those offended by his remarks, attributing the posts to frustration over local crime rates. Traina points out that not all black students are creating chaos in public schools! Traina often uses this analogy to describe what it's like to be stuck in a classroom with even one student who disturbing the class!
