No, not a valid comparison.
135 is another animal entirely. Among many other differences they don't have a 1500/ATP rule so irrelevant to this discussion.
Basically some dude just said 1500 hours doesn't make a difference, while pointing out that we've had 1 fatality in 121 in the last five years but 1200 in 135???
I excluded SWA because that had nothing to do with pilots.
