My take was the event could be boiled down to a reaction to a perceived insult. It looked like Mr. Smith laughed until she gave him a look. So it is really about her reaction. In my opinion she over reacted, and pushed her husband to react. My take was her reaction and pushing her husband to react was unwarranted and I explained why.
Feel free to comment all you want, but don’t try to be the thread police.
I have no power to ‘police’ you.
But I will respond to you when I feel like it.
