Fire chief fired over racist comment

A Cecil Township volunteer fire chief is apologizing for using a racial slur to describe Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin.  Paul Smith fired off a racially charged Facebook post after the Steelers remained out of sight during the National Anthem at Sunday's game.  Smith resigned yesterday, saying he was wrong and extremely sorry for using the N-word in the post.  He also pointed out that he did not break the law and that many musicians use the word with no recourse.
