I was visiting my cousins in TX and trapped a wasp.  We started debating on who would win in a battle, a wasp or a lizard.  Lizards could be found on almost any property in the area.  We caught a lizard and caged him with the wasp.  Neither creature made an offensive move toward the other, so after a day we let them go.  We then decided to put a firecracker in the lizard’s mouth to see if we could blow him up.  After three attempts, we accomplished our mission.  Why is what Michael Vick did by pitting animals against one another any more offensive than what I did as a kid some 25 years ago?  Is it that more horrible to pit two mammals against one another than to pit a reptile against an insect.  All animals are Gods creatures; we just pick favorites.  Let those who have never stomped a spider throw the first stone.
