Because I don't enjoy watching anything struggle to survive.

It's called nature
Shoot a deer and walk up to it after you let it lay for a couple hours and it hobbles up and then feel sorry for it
Then cut it's throat
Then feel bad

Every now and then where I go bass fishing in BR. There is a Falcon that hunts in the pound and pulls out two or three pound bass. But when it's really windy and birds are catching bugs he will sand a bird or two.
He is huge and beautiful. Last time I saw him my friend, who lives in New Iberia, said he shoots them when he goes duck hunting. I thought that was fricked up and told him he was a dick. What's one duck to the fifteen or twenty he will get. It would be different if it was something else but a Falcon.

No, it's called suffering.

Better than letting it lay there in misery. I don't get the point you're trying to make. I understand the nature involved, but a capacity for sympathy is in my nature, so there's that.

seeing something inferior or prey killed by an animal of nature and it doesn't die quickly: no sympathy or sorry feelings.

Pretty lazy critters. Fit in well as the symbol of America.

WTF was that hawk thinking?
And also was I the only one hearing the voice over from that deer/dog video when the eagle was stomping the hawk out?
"12!! pump pump 12!!"?

They'll sometimes attack larger raptors, but generally when they have plenty of room to get away. And they generally don't really commit - just dive-bomb.
I suspect this immature red tail just saw the head moving in the nest and didn't fully realize what he was getting himself into.

Hawk should've had his eyes checked more often.

“For my own part I wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen the Representative of our Country. He is a Bird of bad moral Character. He does not get his Living honestly. You may have seen him perched on some dead Tree near the River, where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the Labour of the Fishing Hawk; and when that diligent Bird has at length taken a Fish, and is bearing it to his Nest for the Support of his Mate and young Ones, the Bald Eagle pursues him and takes it from him.
“With all this Injustice, he is never in good Case but like those among Men who live by Sharping & Robbing he is generally poor and often very lousy. Besides he is a rank Coward: The little King Bird not bigger than a Sparrow attacks him boldly and drives him out of the District. He is therefore by no means a proper Emblem for the brave and honest Cincinnati of America who have driven all the King birds from our Country . . .
“I am on this account not displeased that the Figure is not known as a Bald Eagle, but looks more like a Turkey. For the Truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America . . . He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on.”

So basically...the bald eagle fits the country perfectly.
