I think this might be classified as a `qualified' interpretation. This was not the assertion put forward. Nowhere is this stated. The property put forward is `respect'. Nowhere is it stated that it's O.K. to be rude to somebody because they don't respect you. What _I_ would put forward is it's O.K. to be rude to somebody who has imposed rudeness upon you. But I'm generally better at it. Cheers!
