NEW YORK — He’s too hot for the FDNY — but they won’t fire him.
A black probationary firefighter graduated from the FDNY Academy but was barred from the ceremony for referring to his superiors with the N-word on Facebook and posting seminude selfies. Trilain Smith, a 35-year-old ex-rapper from Fort Greene, Brooklyn, ranted online last month, “These n—as try to kill you start to finish!” after listing the tests he had to pass to graduate.
The remarks, a violation of the FDNY’s social-media policy, came after Smith got a strict warning about his postings, which included sexually suggestive photos of himself in fire garb.
