Hotheaded state Sen. Kevin Parker told a state GOP operative to “Kill yourself!” on Twitter Tuesday after she publicly accused him of misusing his official parking placard.
Parker — who was forced to undergo anger-management treatment after bashing a traffic cop in 2005 and was also convicted in 2010 for slugging a Post photographer — tweeted the message at state Senate GOP spokeswoman Candice Giove when she pointed out his state-
issued parking placard was in a car parked illegally in Manhattan.
He gave a halfhearted apology on Twitter, saying it was a “poor choice of words” — and then promptly doubled down in attacking Giove, a former Post reporter.
As the controversy unraveled, Parker groused to the Albany Times Union that Giove was a “Twitter troll” — before trolling her himself on Twitter for her previous role as spokeswoman for the breakaway Independent Democratic Conference.
“@Candicegiove is on the wrong side of history for every important issue facing New York State!” Parker tweeted.
The Brooklyn lawmaker claimed his remarks weren’t that bad and said the scandal was a “tempest in a teapot.”
“I’m sure people in my district don’t care,” he said. “Come on, people don’t care about that.”
One person who did care, however, was Flatbush Councilman Jumaane Williams, who booted Parker as co-chair of his campaign for public advocate.
“I’m very concerned by the statement I saw from Senator Parker on social media earlier today,” Williams said in a statement. “After speaking with him this afternoon, we have both agreed that it’s best for him to step down as co-chair of my campaign for Public Advocate.”
Republicans and Democrats alike slammed Parker for the outrageous comment.
Ten Days at Jekyll Island, a novel by Patrea Patrick, tells the true story of a secret meeting held in November of 1910 on a privately owned resort island, the outcome of which drastically changed the world. It was at this meeting that a banking cartel was forged; a cartel that, three years later, would be issued a government charter to do business as The United States Federal Reserve System. You will discover why secrecy was essential. Based on historical documentation from The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin. 
Offline is a documentary on the inevitability of the Earth being slammed by a mega solar flare – not the common type that interrupts communications and creates a light show in the Northern skies – but the big brothers thousands of times more powerful. These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (
