Having a tantrum and trying to raise a mob because someone says something that you disagree with is, under the most charitable of interpretations, bully-like and absolutely childish. His original comment was fishing for a query, and such was guaranteed.

But I see no evidence that he was "trying to raise a mob". His actions, as far as I can tell, are perfectly consistent with having good intentions: it would have been a bit rude, perhaps even cowardly, to just disappear, the question of why was inevitable (as you said), and he answered honestly. If a mob raises itself, that's really not his responsibility. Really, it's not. I can't see what he should have dinner differently.
