Ted Whittall: Rick Flag

Quotes 

• Clark Kent : It's over, Flag. We know you blew up that building.

  Green Arrow : Fancy move attacking your own country.

  Rick Flag : I did it *for* my country. If you kill Lane, you kill a movement. That registration act is nothing but a weapon to profile, hunt, and destroy us.

  Green Arrow : We don't need a history lesson.

  Rick Flag : Well, apparently you do, Shamrock. You've become the politicians' poster boy for full disclosure. They're gonna be on your doorstep soon, holding you up as a volunteer. Get up all the other heroes to stand up and be counted and be killed.

  Clark Kent : We're not gonna let that happen.

  Rick Flag : If the bill passes, it already has! Don't you see? America's turning against us. We have got to fight back, show strength, make them choose us as their leaders.

  Clark Kent : You'll be stirring up anti-hero hysteria. Violence isn't the answer.

  Rick Flag : Violence is the *only* answer. And more and more superheroes are coming to my side.

• Rick Flag : And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

• Emil LaSalle : We hit the building, but not the target. General Lane survived.

  Rick Flag : Damn it.
