https://thehill.com/homenews/media/421881-ny-state-senator-tweets-kill-yourself-at-user-who-called-him-out-over-use-of

A New York state senator apologized on Tuesday after telling a Twitter user who called him out over a parking placard to "kill yourself."

I sincerely apologize," Kevin Parker (D) wrote about his since-deleted tweet. I used a poor choice of words. Suicide is a serious thing and and [sic] should not be made light of.

Candice Giove, deputy communications director for the New York state Senate's Republican majority, originally called out Parker for a potential violation in response to a tweet about cars parked in a New York City bike lane.

"The placard is assigned to @SenatorParker," she wrote.

"However, the license plate # on the placard does not match the vehicle. So he either used it in another car or gave it to someone to use, both of which are not permitted."

Giove reacted to Parker's tweet by asking, "Did a Senator just write this to me?"

New York state Senate Democratic Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins said she was disappointed in Senator Parkers tweet in a statement released to The Hill.

Suicide is a serious issue and should not be joked about in this manner. I am glad that he has apologized, the statement read.

He continued to attack her after the apology in another tweet. He is also a scumbag.

In January 2005, Parker was arrested after punching a traffic agent in the face during a dispute over a traffic citation that he had been issued. He was subsequently charged with third degree assault, a misdemeanor. The charges were dropped after he agreed to take anger management classes.[2]

In 2008, an aide filed charges against Parker, claiming he pushed her during an argument and smashed her glasses.[2]

On May 8, 2009, Parker was charged with felony criminal mischief for attacking a New York Post photographer and damaging the photographer's camera and car door. According to prosecutors, the photographer's finger was broken in the alleged attack.[3] Parker was charged with a felony due to the value of damage to the camera and car door.[4] As a result, he was stripped of his leadership position as majority whip and chair of the Energy Committee.[5] Parker was convicted of a misdemeanor charge, criminal mischief, and on March 21, 2011 was sentenced to three years probation and a $1,000 fine.[6] Had he been convicted of the felonies, he would have automatically lost his seat in the Senate, and the Senate had already expelled Hiram Monserrate for misdemeanor charges earlier in the year. The Senate Democrats expressed an unwillingness to expel Parker as they had Monserrate.[7]

In February 2010, Parker was restrained by his colleagues during a profane tirade against Senator Diane Savino in which Parker referred to Savino as a "b****".[8]

In April 2010, Parker launched into an outburst while colleague John DeFrancisco of Syracuse was questioning a black nominee for the New York State Power Authority.[9] "Amid the nearly two-minute tirade, committee chairman Carl Kruger (D-Brooklyn) told Parker he would be removed from the hearing room if he didn't settle down."[9]

Parker accused his colleagues of racism, and followed up in a radio interview by accusing his Republican "enemies" of being white supremacists.[2] Following the tirade, Sen. Ruben Diaz (D-Bronx) was quoted as saying that Parker "need[ed] help."[9]

His tweet.

"and it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they're legit. I'm sure if we talked we could find common ground to protect our families and communities."

Tweet he was responding to.

"So basically @repswalwell wants a war. Because that's what you would get. You're outta your fucking mind if you think I'll give up my rights and give the gov all the power."

No threat at all. Just a cheeky reply to someone whose first thought is "time to fight a war against the government over guns".

The idea that the US government would nuke its own citizens in a hypothetical violent uprising is disturbing to say the least. Like you can be 100% opposed to said violent uprising and still find the idea of nuking them appalling.
