The aliens have been feeding this hatred for a long time.
Soon they will reap their reward. :alien: :alien: :cyclops: :smurf: :help:


Sounds like John Carpenter's movie They Live, starring Roddy Piper.

Not great scifi, but a fun movie.

If they're that advanced to travel between stars, would they just crush us with superior weapons? Or would it be easier and simpler for a race this advanced to simply manipulate us all without us even realizing what is really happening?

So what if aliens invaded? Would all of Earth be forced to work together? Think of it like this. Brothers may quarrel but when an outside intruder invades, they are forced to work together. It could be like this when aliens invade. Christians, Muslims, and North Koreans working together to keep the human race alive.

An alien invasion could be the only way where all of the world comes together to kick some alien arse. Or be destroyed in the process. World War 3 may not be fought against each other, it could be fought against aliens invading Earth. Probably not but you never know...


I worry more about waking up in the morning and finding out that 1+1 is no longer 2.
