Past Events Driving Path to Civil War

One thing I'm looking forward to seeing in Civil War is how the debate over regulating superheroes unfolds. When the government begins to hold hearings on why superheroes should be restricted in their actions, I'm interested in what events the government will cite to justify regulation.

We already know that some kind of event in the movie involving the Avengers will result in civilian casualties, which will set off the political movement in favor of regulation. I'm betting that this won't be the only event spurring the movement; it'll just be the final straw. I'm thinking the government may cite other past events in the MCU as justification, such as:

- The Ultron crisis - This is the most obvious one because it was so recent, involved the threat of global destruction, and resulted from Tony Stark's actions.

- The Battle of New York - At the end of the first Avengers movie, we hear one senator complaining that the heroes are to blame for the destruction caused by the Chitauri invasion. I'll bet this will come up again.

- Iron Man and War Machine's fight with the A.I.M. Extremis soldiers probably caused a lot of inadvertent damage. Same with Thor's fight with the Dark Elves in London. And same with Hulk's big fight in Harlem with the Abomination. These might be cited as justification too.

If anyone else can think of some they'd like to add, please do!
