The scene unfolded Sunday on Margareta Street, where the couples got into a shouting match before the gun came out — with the whole thing starting when someone called someone else’s baby “ugly,” said neighbor Larry Turner, who took video of the incident, WDIV-TV reported.

Wise people don’t tell the parents.

In RVN you never say the baby is so pretty, If the baby is perfect, Budda may want the baby back.

I remember being told that Yiddish speakers will always call your baby “mieskeit” which means ugly. But they do it so the bad fairies won’t be tempted to steal your baby.

Are we 100% sure that wasn’t the case here?
