I'd follow Captain America into hell.
I feel that the Registration Act is bullsh*t... ANYONE with powers and abilities MUST register. Even if you have no intention of using those powers. You must reveal your name...etc... and become an agent of SHIELD and then like all SHIELD agents you have to earn your paycheck. AGAIN: even if you have NO intention of being a superhero...
Plus, Aside form his living legend status, Cap is a man who has stood up for what he believes in at personal and professional cost.
Plus the public knows who he "really is" anyway... he is technically registered anyway, and still he decided to go against the Registration act. He seems to have more integrity then Tony "Iron Man" Stark does.

I’m on the side of the readers. Marvel used to say, “Because YOU, the readers demanded it!” Well, we didn’t demand to be brainwashed and politically indoctrinated, by Marvel…! If we wanted to see political confrontation all we have to do is pick up the newspaper or turn on the radio. It’s not even good writing! It’s just recycled headlines! It’s an insult to our intelligence for them to think that this stuff is creative.
I wonder which party or political action committee is paying Marvel to put out this crud.
They are sawing off the branch they are sitting on. By twisting our political motivations with the heroes we have known and loved, they are ruining them and losing our continued readership.
But, even more dangerous than this, Marvel is risking the security of our nation by dividing us and putting distracting ideas into our minds which may make us hesitate an instant too long when the time comes for us to defend ourselves. The real world is not the comic book world. We can’t use the comics as a model to decide what to do when our safety is at stake.
Perhaps it is not an American agency that Marvel Comics is representing, in these stories…?
I’m against being brainwashed and indoctrinated.
They won’t listen to us unless we hit them in the bank account.
Until Civil War ends, STOP BUYING MARVEL.

Captain America, of Course!!
Dr. Strange said it best in the pre-Civil war Illuminati issue:
"Um, it's wrong"
Iron Man is making the mistake of assuming the ends justify the means- they don't. The other problem is the government's stance that ONLY their solution works. If a program were implemented for heroes who voluntarily wanted to become part of SHIELD, that would be fine. But classifying anyone who didn't want to reveal their identity as a criminal? Totally misguided- their identities being secret wasn't what posed the public risk to begin with.
Let us not forget Benjamin Franklin's words:
"Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

Iron Man.
He is the only logical side.
Captain America has proved himself the enemy of democracy. He is so full of himself in this, even the reporter who was jocking him, met with him for an interview for less than 5 min and called him on it and walked out.
cap's defence is simply "what happens to the private lives and families of superheroes if the government data gets hacked?".
Guess what? that is a risk heroes who want to operate will have to take and assess. It is THIER choice to continue to operate that way. If they really want to they will anyway and cut family ties. It is thier option. Just like someone who works for the cia or any other spy.
Marvel is really ruining the character of captain america by turning him into a poster boy for primadonna superheroes. Just because he doesn't like a law doesn't give him the right to rebel against the government.
Marvel screwed up in thier attempt to compare it to guantanamo because simply there is no natural "right" to run around and be a costumed vigilante- actually on the contrary it would be flat out illegal, but the government looked the other way because they were usefull and didn't cause any harm yet.
So what is cap fighting for? the right to continue to operate illegally? The freedom to defy the united states governement and the will of the people? To ignore the laws passed by duly elected representatives?
They are taking no one's freedom away, they never had the legal freedom to run around committing assault and property damage and disturbing the peace. In order to be freedom lost, there needs to be a right to do it in the first place, there never was that right. Just a prima donna cry by cap and all the anti-registration people that they don't like bieng regulated.
Guess what the cops don't like internal affairs, the military don't like the military police but thats the way it is. Cap wants to be above the law but he is not.
Call him captain anarchy now, that name seems to fit better.

Capt America knows how wrong the registration act is. He's lived thru a time where simular things were done. Registration, Identification, exterminations. He understands the slippery slope that the gov't is putting itself on, no matter how reasonably they are presenting their argument. Its potential for abuse goes against everything he believes in.

Cap's. I believe in the right to privacy, plus I'm pissed at Iron Man's people mucking with my guy Thor's dna and cloning him.

I can see both sides but when Iron man started to incarcerate people in the negative zone he he lost my vote. I am glad Spider-man switched sides
