189. Chapter 95
Chapter Ninety-Five: A Controversy
As the so-called happy times are always short-lived, not to mention the honeymoon of the newlyweds, Daniel also received a second notice of defense on the superhero registration bill.
Daniel, who has always been the liaison between Superhero and the government, has never been able to turn a blind eye to the registration bill, despite his aversion to it.
In the past, passive resistance was to indirectly show Chaoying's attitude, but after receiving an official notice, it was still necessary to take it seriously.
Therefore, in order to prepare for this defense, Daniel, who was concentrated, knew nothing about Tony's move to 'eliminate the rival in love'.
When Tony went to bully, he was busy pretending to be ...... No, in front of members of Congress, defending the rights of superheroes.
This matter has been raised before, and it would have been more representative for Iron Man, or Captain America, to do it.
After all, in the Avengers, those two can be called the recognized leaders in the hearts of all superheroes.
However, the captain was very self-aware, and he politely refused on the phone: "Daniel, I'm not a politician. I can lead people in training and fighting, but I can't deal with a bunch of politicians. If I were to do this, it would probably fall apart. β
Tony casually patted Daniel on the shoulder, and said in his usual indecent tone: "I'm really too lazy to fight with this group of boring people anymore, so you should go!" Come on, baby, I have a lot of confidence in you, man. β
So, Daniel came to 'quarrel' on behalf of everyone.
"We thank the Avengers for their great deeds." General Ross was the first to stand up and speak, saying, "You have contributed to this country and to the world, but that doesn't mean that the Registration Act shouldn't be established. β
"But I don't see the basis for it." Daniel replied calmly.
"Is it enough to control personal weapons of mass destruction to defend the American people?" General Ross glanced coldly.
"Obviously not enough." Daniel didn't intend to give face at all, and directly blocked back: "General Ross, don't be a soldier if you're timid." Because of your unwarranted fear, you ask law-abiding citizens to expose their private lives, and when you bring it up, do you have no heart? Is this still an 'equal, free, democratic' America? Or is this thing really just used to deceive the masses of people? β
"Moreover, after the exposure, who will be responsible for the personal safety of the citizen and the safety of his family? And what do you mean by surveillance? Monitor an original hero with a vigilant gaze and the same behavior as a criminal? β
"There will be certain protections, and besides, surveillance is not surveillance." General Ross tried to explain.
"Pardon my offense, protective measures? Who will protect? When superheroes fight against aliens and monsters, everyone on the earth is still protected by superheroes, at that time, if there are aliens and monsters attacking, how to protect the protection measures you are talking about? β
General Ross kept silent with a cold face.
Daniel ignored him and continued: "If you really want to prosecute a weapon of destruction? The most important thing you should propose is a 'gun ban', because about 10,000 to 20,000 innocent people die from guns in the United States every year. If you have time to spy on law-abiding citizens who are 'maybe just a little more powerful and a little less capable,' you might as well help the FBI catch serial killers, who are obviously more of a contribution to society. β
"You're changing the subject." General Ross immediately interjected: "The shooting of criminals in the case is the FBI's business, and we are talking about the threat of superheroes, whose abilities can be greater than the threat posed by guns once they get out of control." β
"The threat of nuclear weapons getting out of control is also very high, why don't you go and eliminate all nuclear weapons in the world?"
"You're changing the concept of stealing, and nuclear weapons are controlled by people."
"You equate Chaoying with nuclear weapons, and you also want people to control Chaoying? But you didn't come up with any reasonable and legal system at all, the monitoring group? Have you ever thought that setting up a system controlled by a few people is simply a dangerous temptation for the executor? It's never inevitable. β
"So, you're going to have an organization that is inherently insecure to take control of what you think is insecure, and that's going to be a positive negative and safe? Forgive me for taking the liberty of your logic and intelligence, which really touches people to tears. β
Daniel's very immoral pretense wiped his blue eyes, and he was so moved that he almost cried.
Because of this somewhat sharp sarcasm and excellent singing and songwriting, several councillors around couldn't help but want to laugh.
They hurriedly stopped looking, or covered their mouths to hold back.
There were a few councillors who had dealt with Tony Stark, and at this time, involuntarily, secretly discussed some ...... The weird topic of 'not a family, not a door' probably something along the line.
"New York, Washington, DC, Skovia......"
General Ross held back his anger and continued to try to repeat the same old tune, adding to the pressure in a heavy tone: "No matter how you justify it, these ruined cities, with cruel facts, people are afraid of these superpowers......
"No, the one who is really afraid is you, not the people." Daniel raised his head sharply and said aggressively for the first time: "The people will not fear a hero who tries to save their lives and lives, only those with ill intentions and ill intentions will fear the power of heroes." β
"You're arguing for them."
"Tell me the truth, and I have proof." Daniel blinked his blue eyes, raised his hand, and asked for the projector.
Several members of Congress whispered to each other for a discussion, and then, allowed.
He stood up and put on the projection, which was actually a video text.
Before putting it on, he also deliberately held his mobile phone and advertised it openly: "Please pay attention to StarkPhone, virtual presentation, strong sense of science and technology, more intuitive digital jΓΉ, and at the forefront of imaging technology." β
General Ross stood aside, his face half green with anger.
There was another small laugh underneath.
Then, the video was released: "Ahhh β
A group of female voices screamed, startling everyone.
However, in the next moment, several young and beautiful girls cheered in front of the camera: "Captain, we like you so much......"
While comparing their hearts, they used a bunch of fleshy words to express their admiration and admiration for Captain America, and also counted the big and small achievements and glorious battle history of the American team over the years.
"It's all a mess." General Ross asked angrily.
"Oh, that's what you said - very afraid of our people." Daniel replied with a smile.
"Mr. Black." A white-haired congressman stood up with a laugh and a word to stop him: "We already know what you mean, but it's a bit inappropriate to put this kind of video on this occasion, can we stop here?" β
"Oh, of course, Honorable Councillor, listen to you." Daniel neatly turned off the video: "The video is to let everyone have an intuitive understanding, in fact, I also have a set of objective numbers here......"
He stroked a few more times with his fingers, and several large number charts were projected in front of everyone: "...... Here, the first group number jΓΉ is the number of fans of the American team's national support club, the second group number jΓΉ is the number of Iron Man national support club fans, and the third group number jΓΉ is the number of Black Widow national support club fans ......"
"Stop! Stop! Stop! Ross shouted angrily: "I protest, this kind of stern occasion ......"
"Protest dismissal, my number jΓΉ is equally strict." Daniel rightly shouted.
He said in a very serious tone: "General Ross, do you know that now the support club is a real-name system, and you have to fill in the social security number, and you have to go through complicated exams and answers and screening before you can officially join the club." In other words, every number here represents the strongest will of a citizen...... Because they are not strong, they can't become members...... Therefore, they went to great lengths to join the support club in order to support superheroes, believing that superheroes would not harm but protect them. In this world, there is nothing stricter than trust. β
"It's ridiculous, you're going to use this kind of entertainment as a basis?"
"Probably...... It's a little bit better than if you were based on your own timidity. Daniel sarcastically said, "Well, it's not a big mistake to be afraid of the strong, since that's ......"
He slowly lowered his head and rolled up his sleeves, suddenly bent one arm, and made a toned posture (the fly in the ointment is that there is no muscle bulge): "Don't be afraid, General Ross, let me protect you in the future, although I am a civilian, but I am bold." β
The parliamentarians, who had been holding back their laughter before, couldn't hold back their laughter anymore.
Daniel stood there smiling, his blue eyes flashing with a very happy look.
General Ross glared at him with a blushing face and pale lips.
At this moment, if he was wearing that kind of military uniform with a gun, he probably wanted to pull out the gun directly, and he felt that he was really about to be mad by this kind of 'nonsense, shameless, and articulate' guy.
Immediately afterward, the two quarreled with each other for a few more words, and there were no new tricks.
The result of the second defense is: put it on hold for the time being, and then discuss it later.
Seriously, Daniel wasn't happy with the outcome, and he actually wanted Congress to reject the bill altogether and never discuss it again.
However, it seems a bit unlikely, and it is already a good result to be able to delay it for the time being.
As he pondered what to do next, he followed the flow of people out, and as he was about to walk out of the hall, General Ross quickly caught up with him.
The stubborn general whispered, "Do you think you've won?" Yes, now Chaoying has not made mistakes, so you can defend them, and the people are also deceived by them. But if there is no limit, just once, once they make a mistake...... Next time, I'll be the one who wins. β
Daniel's eyes immediately narrowed vigilantly.
He knew: the matter of the registration bill did not seem to be over yet.
However, when he worriedly told Tony about it, Tony had a 'expected' look on his face.
