“Why would America make the bald eagle its national bird when all they do is attack things…”

The bald eagle is the national bird of the United States. This was posted on Twitter by Jamie Woodham on September 29, 2014:
     
“Why would America make the bald eagle its national bird when all they do is attack things and fly away and nevermind I think I get it now.”
   
       
Wikipedia: Bald eagle
The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a bird of prey found in North America.
(...)
The bald eagle is the national bird of the United States of America. The founders of the United States were fond of comparing their new republic with the Roman Republic, in which eagle imagery (usually involving the golden eagle) was prominent. On June 20, 1782, the Continental Congress adopted the design for the Great Seal of the United States, depicting a bald eagle grasping 13 arrows and an olive branch with thirteen leaves with its talons.
