It never ceased to amuse Clint how no one on this team could ever seem to pick a side. Barton knew the stakes well enough. He knew better than most what Shield could bring to bare. None of that mattered now though. They had to fight this. Clint wasn't about to be bullied into being a Shield Stooge. And further more it was a ridiculous law. Who cares if it had been put into place years ago? That didn't make any more justified in Hawkeye's eyes. "Well, I'm not going to put up with it." He chimed in at last from his spot at the table. "I started out doing this underground and I can go back to it as easy as one, two, three.." He bit into his lip then and scanned across the room for the team's reaction. Most of these guys probably assumed he'd be taking this kind of stance. Wanda and Steve especially looked the least surprised. "Look guys, I'm not going to stop helping people just because there's a new sheriff in town. I won't be bullied into wearing a Shield badge either."
