Loose lips sink ships. They should send the little patriots to argue with Tyler’s delusional parents. Though a real patriot would argue that the school SHOULD let Tyler in, to bar him is unequal treatment.
Eh. . . the point can and should be argued both ways. The fact that he has no powers or special equipment (that they know of) could be argued to mean he is woefully unprepared for the classes and dangers of the school curriculum. After all the school isn’t just a normal school, it’s special classes for people who need to be taught about their unique capabilities. If Tyler has no such capabilities his presence becomes superfluous. Still, if you’re arguing that not allowing him is exclusionary. . . the argument exists but neither side is really more ‘patriotic’.
Tyler’s presence isn’t superfluous, it’s **dangerous** to ***him***. Tyler’s first appearance, we see him get hurt bad in gym class, to the point that he’s telling himself not to freakin’ DIE as he wobbles to the nurse. He could easily be killed by accident. He’s a normal human kid among those with super strength, radioactivity, and other powers — Patriot & Eagle have a point. Tyler really should not be there.
Yeah, but one of the most valuable things these powered kids need to learn is how to play well with others, not just other people with powers. Most teams, especially the larger ones in our comics have one or more people with little to no powers. A low-grade telepath may get more respect in the metas here because they have a power, but Revenant/Batman/Deathstroke would not even sweat while neutralizing them… The metas need badly to learn this!
I agree with part one, but not so much part two. From what we’ve seen it’s implied that other than Revanant and now Tyler there aren’t any heroes or villains with no powers just skill, and Revenant is regarded as a bit of a madman for doing what he does, no matter how good he is at it. So it’s not necessarily that these kids need to learn to interact with and how dangerous non-meta supers can be, it’s that they need to know what normal level human means. They need the reminder that people without powers are in fact people, not just hostages or support staff, and further what levels of force are applicable or too much when dealing with non-metas. Both are lessons Tyler’s own parents seem to need to learn, frankly.
Yeah, but that’s not why they’re arguing for it. They’re arguing for it purely because he was elected to an office they both wanted. If Tyler’s own safety was what they were arguing on I might agree with them, but since they’re purely looking at it from ‘these are the rules’ then they’re only real point is ‘admittance is for children with powers to train those powers, Tyler has none so he doesn’t need training so hispresence is “quote superfluous”‘.

To be fair, that was meant to be humorous and was probably an exaggeration. He was banged up, but probably not in any serious danger.
