New scenario

I am out for my nightly walk in the country. A space ship lands and a martain gets out and starts towards me. Do i see if he came in peace or do a shoot the little prick. I could call Capt. Kirk or the men in Black .There are no laws on the books about shooting martians so they are fair game. also i have alerady put the tin foil on my head so his mind control wont work. I NEVER leave home without it. C'mon guys i need some help on this one.

First thing I'd do is hit the speed dial on my cell and call up Bigfoot and his buddies...just in case the martians get all uppity. Second I think I'd have to make sure my trusty 41 mag was loose in the holster. After all of that I'd go see if they maybe just needed directions or what.

The Art Bell show (Coast To Coast) starts in about 10 minutes. Give him a call - he'll know what to do.
Heh heh...

Good call on bigfoot. I never thought of that!!!!!! I bet Bigfoot and his buddies would help. Also any special bullets you would need to use? I know for Weerwolves you must use a silver bullet. Just wondering about Martians. As for your .41Mag. Thats an awsome caliber!!!

I think perhaps, you should offer the martian a drag of whatever you are smoking.

Sadly, I think this has a much greater chance of happening than MANY of the other "Whad'dya do if?" threads on the "Tactics and Training" page.

Incidentally, how does sitting around dreaming up these wild scenarios help your tactics or your training?

What's wrong with Martians? Have they ever displayed any animosity toward you? Have any actually attacked you in the past? Perhaps they're merely landing to see if they can find work! After all, they're "aliens"..you know, those folks that do the jobs that Americans won't do!

Heck, maybe they EAT "undocumented immigrants" and urinate FREE gasoline!

What do you do if a Martian says, "Take me to your leader!". Do you take them to (A) President George Bush, (B) Karl Rove, (C) Nancy Pelosi, (D) Brittney Spears, (E) Paris Hilton, (F) Art Bell, or (G) Hillary Clinton? (Add Barack Obama, for he sort of LOOKS like an E.T.!)

Do NOT shoot them!

He's probably just out of fuel.

Martians and martinis don't mix well, so have a couple more martinis and keep on going.
