This is scandalous. And the making of a reality show for Bravo or Lifetime!
I would call it “Real Hawkwives of New York.”

More depressing animal stories on a conservative political site that is already dealing with crazed liberals.

Frank Barone:"Didn't I teach you anything, you gotta problem with your woman you don't go out and get another one. Then you got two problems."

These are animals. Hawks don’r get married. A hawk doesn’t know when it’s mate is gone, that it’s at veterinarian.
