Nebraska State Senator Bill Kintner decided to flee Twitter after receiving backlash for re-tweeting a sexist joke made by conservative talk show host Larry Elder.
Phone calls complaining of Kintner’s re-tweet were made to his office in Nebraska, and sexual assault victims were outraged at Kintnter.
“(F)rom a victim in NE, sexual harassment and assault aren’t a joke. I hope no women near you ever experiences either,” one person responded to the tweet, according to the Lincoln Journal Star. Kintner replied, “I hope no women experiences harassment or assault either.”
Kintner has been in trouble before for using his government computer for cybersex, so he probably needs to chill with the sex jokes and focus on legislation.
