Default Removing a bent screw

After about a million rolls in my Violator I finally bent the screw that mounts the top of one of the front shocks. I can get the nut off the end but The screw is bent enough that I cant pull it out of the collar/spacer thing to remove it. Should I attempt to straighten it to remove it, or try to cut the screw with something?
