Could they actually shut the school down if they wanted to?

There's no way, we've got the X-Men and some Avengers and all sorts of people.

Which is why they wanted to shut it down in the first place.

Doesn't mean they can. People like the Avengers. Especially Captain America.

[diedbefore]

But what can they do against normal people? Normal people who happen to be lawyers and government people.

They can't exactly fight them or anything.

You think he'll really try?

[diedbefore]

I don't know if he will. I really hope he doesn't, but he might. He could be just trying to rally up votes, but then they're going to expect him to do something about it.

[feltnothing]

But... I just got here! Tosser.

[diedbefore]

Me too. If you consider one month 'just getting here'.

[pghusk]

I don't think they can if Xavier's is considered a private institution? If the school is getting money from the government then they might have some say but otherwise it'd be like every other private institution and they wouldn't have much say?

I think.

[diedbefore]

Unless they thought that the school was a danger to...security or something. Which they do. But I didn't take Civics, so I wouldn't know anything about the legal side of it.

[pghusk]

I don't know but I think we need to listen closely and try to be prepared for whatever does happen.

[diedbefore]

That's a good plan.

[likeshiscape]

God, I hope not.

Me too. Especially considering the other option.

[diedbefore]

You didn't tell me you had a brother, by the way. He really looks like you.

[likeshiscape]

What's the other option?

Oh, yeah...that's Tommy. I didn't even know about him till I came here, if you can believe it. He and I are roommates.

[deathscort]

I thought they couldn't do that kind of thing in America?

[diedbefore]

I don't know if they can. Why don't I get back to you when I have more information?

[deathscort]

Okay. I'd appreciate it.

[diedbefore]

Everyone mentioned something about the fact that we're a private school. I guess that means that the government doesn't have a lot of say in what we do.
