COLUMBUS, Ohio – Police in Ohio say a woman shot her cousin to death during an argument that started because one woman didn't think the other was dressed properly for Easter dinner.

which indicates what many of you are thinking

I just have no idea whatsoever what you are getting at. I wasn't thinking anything in particular about this incident. And I wasn't thinking anything in particular about the recent riot at Chuck E. Cheeses either.
