Kyle Gass apologized himself the day after.
What would have been best would be for them both to batten down the hatches and let it blow over, what JB did was needlessly escalate the situation. Even if his intentions are as you imagine them to be and the two are back on tour in a couple of months, but that can't be taken as a given as you're doing.
Curious what sort background qualifies you to make better decisions than either of them and their undoubtedly overpaid yet highly experienced staff.
The "escalation" wasn't needless. In fact while it may appear to be an escalation, for all you know it was a mitigation against journalists who were already preparing to make giant headlines and give FOX news another thing to rile their base with.
Sometimes you see a train barreling towards you and jump off the tracks despite the injury you know you're going to take when you land.
