Did he really want to argue with him right now when they had more pressing matters? Fine, he would go down that road and close it off quickly. "Gambit, do not put words in my mouth. Instead, listen to them before you make yourself look foolish like you did yesterday. I pointed out, like the Professor pointed out, how dangerous it is for mutants the world over that the government's technology is effective enough to attack seemingly any of us and win, despite the literal infinite abilities we have as a whole.<br/><br/> He knew just how hard to hit her, just where to hit her, to knock her out without killing her. That means he could know how to negate your kinetic energy. He could have a device that forces me back to my human form. Xavier couldn't get through to his mind at all. You don't realize how worrying that is?!" Usually Piotr could handle debates, arguments, etc... with a calm head. But Gambit seemed to be angry at him for no other reason than he wasn't actively threatening Salvation when he showed up right along with him. How dare he not froth at the mouth like a madman who'd lost his pills?!<br/><br/> "I wanted to tear Salvation apart as soon as he landed on our property. Rip him limb from limb. But I watched the same video as you. Of course he had no right to attack Yolande as he did. However, he has an extremely high level of freedom to act against mutants. And a suit that actually frightens me to behold. A blessing by the government that hates and fears us. He is a boogeyman designed to cow tow us into submission, and as long as he does, the government will support him. <br/><br/>In the future, Salvation may not even be a single person anymore.  So yelling about it won't change anything; especially at me. If we're getting things off our chest though, <em>you</em> were completely out of line yesterday. You threaten the man who just knocked a girl out on national television for being a mutant? He leveled a shotgun at Jono for speaking to him with telepathy, and you walk up waving your staff? While <em>students</em> were right there? He could've killed you, Rahne, and all the others just to prove a point and he would've gotten away with it. You need to think more carefully in the future, Gambit. Or I <em>will</em> request to have you removed from active duty until you learn to think things through. I refuse to have a lit fuse out there with us endangering our comrades."<br/><br/> Was it harsh? More than likely. But he refused to watch Remy put himself, and others in danger because he had a temper tantrum while the rest of them focused their anger to find solutions. He looked to the three oldest men in the room after Xavier spoke. All of them had valid points he felt he could address. "Nemesis is correct. Magneto has not gone away. In fact, he and his Brotherhood have steadily grown stronger over the years. And there is no doubt he watched this spectacle as well. He will <em>not</em> be pleased. <br/><br/>And an angry man as powerful as him, as vengeful as him? The world will tremble before he is through, Charles. Is there any way we can contact him? Persuade him to not attack America as soon as he mobilizes his forces to make a statement? Parlay to give us a chance to figure something out before he starts a war on behalf of all mutantkind." It felt like something Magneto would do. To see an innocent mutant abused like that for no reason other than she was unregistered and a mutant would remind Erik of similar times. <br/><br/>Times, when he was a child and an evil dictator, ruled Germany. He would not be pleased at all. "Logan is also correct. If we allow this, they will simply implement more and more measures against our kind. First it was registration. Now Salvation patrols the skies for unregistered mutants. Soon they'll put tags in our ears like cattle and lock us in prison camps. We have to get in front of this before the humans subjugate us completely." He looked at Charles last. "Professor, would that be possible? Do you think they would allow us to operate in a capacity that would allow us to handle mutants our way? Because if there is a display like yesterday again, twice more? There will be riots in the streets. And then the government will have all the legal reason they need to start culling our race." It was a grim premonition, but they all watched the news, read the reports. He wasn't wrong. Humanity seemed determined to make Mutants fourth class citizens, and if that failed, they could just kill them. At this point, it's not like mutants were even considered people.<br/></span><br/>
