Black Heroes Against Registration

[DattaBoy]

I know quite a few people have noticed in Civil War issue 2 there seem to be alot of black heros on the anti-reg side; as a matter of fact all of Marvel's black superheros seem to be joing the anti side except for Bishop and Misty. And not that I have a problem with that it's just that you would think that there would at least be a couple more willing to register.

[Haunt]

Monica Rambeau hasn't stated her position on this, yet. she's a former cop like Tigra. she's also fairly conservative, personality-wise. she might be pro.

[xmixmasterx]

i think it makes sense to have a majority on the anti side.

Tigra was black? I always thought she was born a cat person or somthing like that.

[Darkoth]

Triathon might be pro,he seems the Ultra conservative sort,but if I recall he's not too fond of Iron Man so who knows?

No, she was a white woman who was transformed into a cat person- Monica and Greer were both cops.

No, Tigra is caucasian.

Is he still with the triune understanding? what would be their position on this?

I don't know,but I assume that the truine understanding was a metaphor for scientology and /or other new age religions,which I might imagine generally have very conservative viewpoints.

[AllisterH]

In a way, that makes no sense.

The NAACP has always, ALWAYS, been harshly critical of VIGILANTISM since vigilantism most familiar to black americans was just the "nice word" for lynchings.

The Black Panthers wouldn't agree with them.



In any case, try to remember, vigilantism in fictional superhero comic /= vigilantism in real life.

Sorry, boyo, but I doubt many Conservatives are all about Scientology and New Age religions. Sorry to break to you, but conservatives are traditional, not new age,

More to the point, we Conservatives are usually against the idea of the government poking it's nose into the lives of private citizens. So I'd assume a conservative hero would be against Registration.

lets be honest here...most minority heros will be anti registration because most have the sterotypical black/hispanic hero origin where they are somehow abused by the system and fight the corrupt establishment to rise above there indignation and poor background. All the black heros in the MU have vairations on the same damn origin....Luke Cage was framed and did time, was experimented on by a corrupt prison system, he isnt gonna be pro govt....i seem to think the more street level heros (usually most minority heros dont have cosmic power) will be anit reg...daredevil, cap, etc...most younger heros will be anit reg as well....there are a few good minority young heros these days....so i dont think its a pattern but a combination of a few other factors...

That's fine,I'd assume both liberals and conservatives want less government in thier private lives.Still,when it comes to civil rights,conservatives seem to sit on thier hands more often than not.Being "traditionalists" they have nothing to protest against,the status quo works for them.

Problem is your corollary doesn't work either. Most conservatives aren't New Age. That doesn't mean that most Scientologists aren't conservative.


But I really have no clue what most Scientologists are, nor do I claim to. So Darkoth's comment still could be total BS, I have no idea.

[Drakenred]

All I know is that Tom Cruise is one.

and somehow I suspect that the Scientologist almost wish he wasnt.

Black heroes tend to do the street level hero thing on their own, and the alien punching in group settings. That being said, street level guys have to be Anti-reg because they have invariably seen that when they follow something far enough up the chain (drug gangs, mobsters, super villian assasins), that either there is a politician behind it, or on the payroll. What if some guy who golfs w/ the president wants to know who some guy is just out of "curiosity", or he just goes right to Maria Hill. Said hero comes home and his wifes head is in the sink and damn bullseye is sitting on his couch flipping a coin.

At least she's not in the fridge.

As for black heroes against it, I can't remember, but what about Goliath, or Black Goliath, or Giant Man, or whatever Bill Foster is calling himself these days? Or is he a Uncle Tom?

For liberals and conservatives being for against it, it's more along the lines of whos's more libertarian.

he's already been shown to be with Cap's crew.

True, true, true, true.

Id say us liberals are even more against it......

I would also say that we conservatives are about law and order and personal accountability and responsibility. Which is what the registration act is trying to bring in. Some semblance of normalcy, So that everything isn't like 'wild west', allowing innocent civilians to be killed.

She'd only be in the Fridge if Dick Chen...er I mean, said fictional politician sent Major Disaster to do it.
