"I respectfully disagree. The twins felt insulted when their father
said they baited Dudley because he was a Muggle! They baited him
because he was a stupid git; and they believed he was a stupid git
because they liked and respected Harry and believed his stories about
Dudley."
Precisely.  If Dudders had been a wizardling git, they'd have pranked him too,
although not, perhaps, in exactly the same way.
That being said, I agree that the Twins showed poor judgment in what they did to
Dudley, but we can't expect ole heads on young shoulders, can we?
