Everything simply has to be put in its proper perspective. I feel sure either of my Grandads would have had no qualms about shooting a Hawk. Both were farmers & both had chickens. I don't have such a photo of either of them but if I did I likewise would have no qualms about sharing it. I likewise would have no qualms about sharing a foto of either of my G-Grandfathers in their confederate uniform with their foot atop a slain Michigan Yankee in Blue. It would be relevant to the time.
To bad-mouth a foto of this age by today's standards is strictly "IDIOTIC".

They also will make no distinction between this killing of a Hawk & the other "Vermin" you so proudly boast of. To them you Killed Something, That's It, so why would you worry about what they think for one but not the other.
