MS firefighter’s KKK flag Facebook post about ‘white power’ brings trouble

In Richland, Mississippi, a reserve firefighters and AMR employee is today’s SMACSS (Social Media Assisted Career Suicide Syndrome) victim. His name is Dewayne Hall. Hall says he has learned a big lesson.

Annette Peagler, WMCA-TV:

Dewayne Hall, who volunteers for Richland Fire, Cleary Fire and works part time for AMR says he regrets making the post that shows the KKK flag. A statement above it reads: “White power will never die.”

Hall said he made the post in response to the controversy surrounding the Mississippi state flag.

“If it offends someone by all means I apologize that it offends anyone, but they got to look at the heritage side of it versus the hate side,” Hall explained.
