My decision

My decision in life was in 8th grade when I had been a part of a incident which involved a prank on me to try and "pants" me. Just as the attempt was being made a staff was walking by and no one noticed so we all got caught. The punishment was a referral and suspended for 1 day. I couldn't be suspended, my parents don't like me in trouble and I know the consequences of being suspended at my house. So I had to choose to lie so I get in trouble or tell the truth and have my friend in trouble. My decision was to tell the truth because the punishment from home would be worse.

Rebuttal to Mark Twain

Mark Twain says humans are below the common animal. But how can a man be below a animal when animal can just do simple things to survive. Humans can do that too but we can also help others unlike some animals. He states that hunting was a sport, but I say how is it sport when you hunting for food. Animals also hunt for food and we can't really know if it is for sport or just what it really is because we can only imagine.
