And I get where you're coming from, but I don't see it that way. Looking at Iron man I can't imagine any other scenario that would prove as effective as this one. How else would you treat criminals? Regardless of the fact that many of these outlaws were friends he doesn't owe them anything. They are breaking a law designed to protect people, so I don't think they should expect any sort of courtesy. In fact they should consider themselves lucky that Stark and SHIELD didn't outright them when they arrived.

You say Stark should have handled things differently. Knowing the circumstances and how Tony thinks what do you think would have been a better course of action?

: I understand what you're saying, but as far as
: I'm concerned, Iron Man should have found a
: better way to get Cap to talk to him. But he
: didn't. He lured Cap and his crew into a
: trap. That is a betrayal of a longtime
: friendship. When you lure someone into a
: trap, you can't expect the victim to just
: stand there and take it. that's not how it
: works. If Iron Man lured me into a trap, I
: would have done exactly what Cap did. You
: simply don't trust someone who deliberately
: lures you into a trap with the intention of
: beating you into the ground if you don't
: comply. That's just how I feel.

: Well what better way would you have had in
: mind? Look at it from Tony's perspective.
: He wants to get practically all the anti-reg
: guys in a scenario where he is holding all
: the cards so that the only choices are
: listen or be taken down. If Tony asked to
: meet Cap in private he wouldn't have
: achieved the same effect. If he had gotten
: Cap arrested then Steve would have been made
: to be a martyr and that would hurt Tony's
: course. He made a good decision imo.
: Technically the anti-regs are criminals so
: he owes them nothing, yet out of respect he
: offers them a chance to talk and hear him
: out first and foremost. What does Cap do in
: that situation? Throw the first punch.
: Doesn't reflect too well on Steve

: Don't you think you're being a bit harsh on
: CW? Tony didn't lead Cap and the others to
: battle with the intent to fight. He was
: prepared to fight if it came to that, which
: it did thanks to Captain America, but
: fighting was not his intention
:
: Then Tony should have found a better way to
: do things. If he didn't intend on fighting
: Cap and his crew, then he shouldn't have
: tricked them and led them into a trap. If
: someone led me into a trap, I'd fight back,
: too, and I would never trust the person
: again. It's betrayal. Also, if Tony didn't
: intend to fight, then he should have called
: Cap and met with him one-on-one instead of
: leading him and his crew into a trap
: designed specifically to take Cap and
: company down unless they comply. that's how
: I feel about it, anyway.
