it seems like people here are not aware of the military force many countries have. this team will get destroyed. western air force will be more than enough to take them out alone. not even bringing the really heavy guns some countries have...

So if Blackbolt decided to walk up to Congress while everyone is in session and say hello....then proceed to waltz over to the white house to "voice" his demands. You dont think the US would heed his demands? I mean the damage hed cause alone in a prolonged battle would give any military pause let alone the fact that he has backup. You vastly overestimate the militaries abilities. Unless tactical nukes are used we lose...hard and not without aggregious casualties
I call bullshit in the nothing short if a nuke theory, but thats neither here nor there.
The Government using a scorched earth tactic, casualties and all, against invading super humans isnt a foregone conclusion.
first of all there are weapons more powerful than a nuke. a nuke is simply the most common one. hydrogen bombs for example. secondly, the military technology is very advanced today. not only nuke heads on every common ship and sub marine, but also as far as rifle bullets that can penetrate layers of titanium with easy. simple rifle rounds that could and should take out blackbolt and even penetrate colossus. for example black tip armor piercing bullets fired from a 50 bmg. this is not the comics world where bullets are useless.

Yeah, and nobody said anything about limiting casualties to beat these guys. It's about escalation - if BB is using small attacks at first, then he definitely has a chance of being taken out by a sniper or missile. If he gets angry and starts totally cutting loose, then the destruction is so much that casualties are already high. They would eventually respond with tactical nukes or more. It might mean huge casualty numbers but they have a good chance of killing him (though it's not a foregone conclusion).
Rhino and Colossus would die. With today's weapons a nuke is not needed really. Rhino could be killed with a chemical attack if necessary (but probably isn't). Colossus is so slow they would just wreck him with heavy weapons until he was a twisted mess. As said above, modern weapons can do a lot of damage.
I'll give you the sniper rifle (as i was just kidding earlier), but i dint see him tanking a nuke, or just "flying away". I mean, you can i get these are comics characters, but sometimes the things posters think, or at least say, they can do is down right cartoonish.

still say its a toss up on the sniper as I've never seen him to do it but he did live on the moon for a long time where no one used guns. he could survive just about anything if he can redirect his power correctly.
venom I believe sonics and heat still wreak havoc on this guy
rhino I think you can still shoot him in the face - sniped - droned
colossus hit him with electricity to stun and capacitate
joker sniped - goons - probably get hit with the SWAT until it escalated to martial law
spidey - blowed up with Black Bolt in case the dude takes a bullet like a champ
