There isn't one. The statement is just that - a statement, and not a question or an insult.

Nice answer Soy, was going to be my response. It is not a question, it is a statement...
People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" reminds us that we should be careful how we treat other people (with our words and actions) because we can all be easily hurt. People "throw stones" at other people to try to hurt them, and one way that people try to hurt other people is by saying bad things about them. If you lived in a "glass house" it would be very easy for other people to hurt you by throwing stones at you. "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" means that we should not say insulting things to other people because they could easily do the same thing to us. Example: "Look at that shirt you are wearing! Did you buy that back in the '80s?!" Answer: "Hey, you're not so young yourself; people who live in glass houses should not throw stones!" Something made of glass can easily break; it is vulnerable; and we are all vulnerable in different ways. Sometimes we forget our own vulnerability and "throw stones" at other people in the form of criticism. A person might remind us that we too have our own faults and weakenesses by saying "people who live in glass houses should not throw stones". Example: "Look at what time it is... you are late again!" Answer: "Hey, how often are you not on time? People who live in glass houses should not throw stones."

When everything you do is a matter of public record and/or you are in the public's eye, then be careful what you say and do, because your actions can come back to hurt you in more ways than one.
Something like that.

There isn't a comeback to this. It's not a question that requires an answer. And it's not the type of statement that you'd have some witty comeback to. Sorry.

Just say that's your glass house is bulletproof. However, I wouldn't advise you to say that as you'll probably look like an asshole, and people might start checking if that's true or not anyway.

There really isnt one.( unless it's a smartalec response) Nobody is perfect! So when you are talking about somebody and you get the above sentence said to you, they are saying; Hey! you arent perfect either.
