A Beetle Under a Hula Hoop

A Hula Hoop squashes a ladybug by rolling over it yet it does not kill it. How is this possible?

It's been squashed dead.  It cannot retaliate.

I don't think it could kill it anyway, because it is already dead. Wink

Hula Hoops are not alive, so a lady bug couldn't kill it, even if it wasn't squished and outsized.

Where does it say it was outsized?
 
PS: and in my case, where does it say it is dead?

Technically Hula Hoops cannot commit murder therefore they are always innocent. I have never seen a Hula Hoop behind bars. I reckon a child is guilty then but he/she is too young to be sent to adult prison.
