37. Is a tasteless joke at a ceremonial event the same thing as threatening children?

Smith and his wife were free to leave. No one was unjustly threatening their safety. Smith acted like a Nazi would by angrily rushing to judgment and resorting to violence. My father would also have condemned Smith’s folly. I’m stymied this needs explanation.
