No, he responded and managed to make this all about "double standards" . I only posted the link because I thought perhaps he was in a foreign country and hadn't heard about this story but no, true to form, he was just teeing up for his misogynistic rant.

I had a dream I met Bobsplosion.

I can never tell with your comments

I hate to sound like I'm fresh from Jezebel (and you know I've commented on FA since the beginning) but it's a bit odd to almost open up with how being a fighter pilot seals the deal with women, and then later ask about women flying combat planes.

"FEMINIST AGENDA" Oh no! Women with opinions, so scary!

Considering I read the original comment, I would say that was a good call.

Make enemies out of allies huh? Why I do I get the feeling people like you were never allies to begin with? If what I'm saying forces you to stop being a non-racist then I say so long and thanks for the fish.

:(

If you don't see how this comment is infinitely more problematic than the original one than you do need to look at your racial politics. Honestly, this is ugly. "Fucked up places"? "Coddling of brown people?" No.
