There's a pregnant woman who is beaten to death and all any of the characters care about is that the Bing was disrespected and ralph, a made man, was hit by Tony. A punch was more important than a woman and unborn child's life.
On the whole, though, Tony did take it somewhat seriously - for his part, civilians didn't usually get hurt by his hand - that's moral equivocation to a degree - but, particularly not something as arbitrary as what Ralph did to Tracee. He would have been appalled at Paulie and Christopher killing the waiter after they stiffed him. "WTF are you mooks going to do next? Whack the meter reader?"
I always felt that Tracee was the reason he began looking for an excuse to whack Ralph and Pie O My was the final straw. He even spoke of Pie O My in metaphorical terms for Tracee, if you recall.

Tony was the position of morality there, but the rest of how the mafioso culture operated was pretty crazy.
I think right after Paulie says something like, "Ralphie was way out of line. He never should have disrespected the Bing like that."
Tony responds, "she was just a young girl." Or something like that.
Then just as an after thought Paulie says, "oh, that too." No thought at all about the murder. Just some superficial breach of manners is all that he thought about.
Then afterwards what the real thing that everyone is upset about is that a made man was hit over some stupid whore, and it's made a big deal that Tony has to apologize to save face. Just crazy.
