How would you react in the following situations?

1. You and your buddies are on a hunting trip through thick and deserted woods, and you happen upon a crashed UFO. The hard landing has fractured the hull, popped hatches and windows and there are numerous openings to the interior. There is still some very thin smoke coming out the interior, and signs of movement inside. The crew is obviously not human. You and your friends are very well armed, with plenty of ammunition.

2. Like any normal person living in a free state, you have qualified for a CCW. You suffer an alien abduction. You are armed. You have no idea where you are, or how many of 'them' there are. You have not yet been examined or anesthetized. There are no other humans you are aware of on board.

As for me, I posed the first scenario to a couple of my friends and the unanimous reaction was to observe the wreck, gather as much information as posssible, and attack, board and take the ship and kill or capture the crew, regardless of consequences. After that, play it by ear.

In the second scenario, tough call, but if taking a hostage or hijacking the ship was even a remote possibility, such as coming into contact with a similarly or smaller sized crew member who was obviously not armed, I would probably do it.

First…if they exist. It’s a crashed UFO, it is probably not going any where right away, who knows if there is a bio hazard present so moving in to take control of the vehicle wouldn’t be wise. Killing the crew would serve no purpose and is just the thing that would come between a possible future friendship between our species.
(sounds like something a red neck would do) Like… hey bubba one of them there poky mon creatures sure would look good on my wall!!! :evil: No offence. I would fall back, sit tight and call as many TV stations as possible to have as much live documentation as possible and play it by ear, most have helicopters so location shouldn’t be a problem. let the authorities be contacted by a secondary source. But… the government seems to have an uncanny ability to sniff out such things as a crashed UFO and be there before you dial 411, if they used their suggested mind control abilities and you are abducted its possible you would not have a chance to do any thing and all the above would be mute.

I would have to agree with bigfeather, there. But if there another possibility, I would go inside the ship and tell them dam Alien to beam me up.

God

1st scenario:
I would wait it out for a while, and if nothing happens, stash a pistol in my jacket and enetr the craft, and find out whats going on. If they become hostile, i'll rambo my way out.

2nd scenario:
I would approach an alien and see whats going on, and if they ignor me, I'll put a pistol to their head and see what thay have to say, or do.

OK. First thing...big problem with the whole Rambo scenerio. Don't these things read minds? Won't they know what you're up to?

First, I would immediately start thinking of a breakfast cereal, like Froot Loops. Start thinking of Toucan Sam and his uncanny ability to not only talk, but market not bird seed, but you guessed it, breakfast cereal. I would contemplate this marketing gimmick upon my entry into the vehicle. If the aliens showed any sign of aggression, I would quickly start thinking of Cap'n Crunch and confuse the little bastards. While they were in this daze, I would ride out in a blaze of glory, nailing everything between me and the door.

Considering the second scenerio...I'd start thinking of some super model and pray that they get the idea and disguise themselves as hot babewatch babes while performing the those invasive procedures.

I fully expected the usual ivory tower nonsense about communicating and working with aliens instead of engaging them in combat, but if you think just a little deeper--a little beyond situational ethics and political correctness, and also just a little bit outside the box, you will find my real motivation for having an itchy trigger finger.

The Government isn't going to say anything, and since the history of UFOs goes back for ever, without the aliens certifiably saying anything, the only way I can think of to force the issue is to do as I suggested. The precedent could be found with the opening of Japan in the nineteenth century. In the interest of peaceful coexistence, an end to the abuse of shipwrecked sailors (for our purposes here-abductees) and the establishment of commerce and diplomatic relations, we sent Commodore Perry with a fleet of combat warships, and an unwillingness to take 'no' for an answer. And, it worked.

We will never get an answer to the question of life out there until life down here starts shooting. Sometimes, it just has to be that way. Shoot first. And if we hit something, or if something hits back, we won't have to ask questions later. We'll have our answers.

If I saw a crashed UFO with extertrestials inside I would pull out my M26 Advanced Taser and try to take em down with it.



Then if that did not work I would pull out the tasertron 95HP.



If I used up all my options and nothing else worked I would pull out a 625,000 volt stun gun and shock some sence into thouse aliens

Although I respect your point of view horselips I still think there is a time and place for an offensive posture, if it were a downed alien craft as stated in the original text my first post would stand as is. But… as anyone else I really don’t know how I would react if I were abducted and not under mind control of some kind. Truthfully! I would probably act as any cornered, captured or threatened animal and react with fight and flight and worry about what just happened after the adrenalin rush calmed. 8o

Ree3162003, Just a thought…I have read many abduction stories and a majority tell of electrical devices not working well if at all! I personally would try a more failsafe device before proceeding into an almost no win scenario. :smokin:

Here is my failsafe answer pepper spray and dynamite

LOL! that will work. :evil:

1.
-Skeptically believe that this was some type of hoax or gag for a television show.

-Look for cameras/television crew

If none found:

-Curse the physics that I have learned up until this point, as it is obviously false given this circumstance... :|

-Urinate into a cloth (or piece of clothing) and wrap it around my mouth (disgusting, but wait...), this crystalizes some toxic gasses and renders them harmless to you.

-Relate the nearest creature to something you would find on earth. If not applicable, then make an educated guess for the next step.

-Shoot it once in a non-vital area to limit mobility.

-Repeat as necessary.

-Treat the wounds so as to make them non-lifethreatening. If necessary, cauterization is an option

-Bind them

-Hide them under a tarp in the back of the truck (assuming we have one, it is, after all, a hunting trip. What else would you be driving? A mini-van? )

-Make note of the location

-Threaten to bring revealing information about my friends to the public if they report this to anyone without my consent.

-Place them in my garage (the aliens!). Wearing proper bio-hazzard safety gear, do a perlimary inspection of their bodily function. Make a trip to the local lab supplier and purchase supplies I have deemed necessary.

-Experiment thoroughly

-Write one hell of a thesis

-Report my findings to the government and the science department at my university, so they can working in unison as to how much of the information is revealed to the public

Situation 2:
Determine the nature of their investigation... Explain to them that there is no need to experiment on humans, as we have done so extensively and are willing to share the information... for a price, negotiating as necessary with my firearm.
