Nashville's legal department recommended a $450,000 settlement with firefighter Joshua Lipscomb after he was suspended after calling Metro Council members "white supremacists" in a social media post.
"I hate feeding into the illusion that America’s government and existence is legitimate so I'm no fan of voting," the post read. "But the majority of Nashville City Council is white supremacists. I know it's boring, but millennials HAVE to start caring about local elections. These folk want us dead."
A Nashville Fire Department panel later concluded he violated department policy. He was suspended for 16 days. Lipscomb was previously suspended for eight days in 2020 for harassing a local business owner on social media.
