if aliens were to visit us, would they be turned away by the immigration people for not having valid passports

Question

sorry, I do mean extraterrestrial types, not the ones we are already so accustomed to welcoming to our shores......

Answer 1

Not if they were qualified plumbers.

Answer 2

Firstly, I think there is a hint of racism in both your question and your additional remarks and as this is very destructive and not at all rational I would respectfully suggest you re-examine your motives. Migration from the horn of Africa throughout our planet over just a few hundred thousand years has resulted in the wonderful variations of beauty and culture that we now enjoy. There are greater variations within our many races than exist between them, and we have a common ancestor, so there is no justification for any form of racism or war mongering over who owns which bits of our planet. Secondly, the probability of "aliens" visiting us is extremely low. In spite of all the apparently rational arguments about billions of galaxies etc, there is currently no direct way of even guessing the likelihood of another "advanced" species in our universe. Indirect calculations, based on assessing the probability of a planet reaching Earth's level of maturity, suggest that it may be a little early in the life of our universe for any "advanced" lifeforms to exist at all. It is therefore likely that we are alone. All the more reason to be less careless with our unique and beautiful blue-green planet!

Answer 3

They probably would.
However, they would then just land south of our country and get instructions for how to get past border patrol from the government of that country, so they would get in anyway. Then once they proved they could subvert our laws good enough they would be given amnesty. After that they could bring down all their little green relatives and take over.

Answer 4

Don't be silly - they'd be welcomed with open arms and given documentation telling them how to claim all the benfefits that the indigenous population (that's us, who were born & bred here & have paid megabucks into the NHS, etc) have to wait for weeks to get told we don't qualify. They'd be given the best of houses (it happened in Glasgow - luxury homes, no less) while we fight to get a decent roof over our heads.

Answer 5

Extraterrestrials could be a major help to us with their technology and wisdom. They don't plan on inhabiting our earth and TAKING FROM US like the illegal aliens do.. Somehow they (illegal residents) believe they're entitled to everything everyone else has.. Extraterrestrials are trying to learn and possibly exchange information with us.

Comparing illegal immigrants to extraterrestrials is completely absurd.

Answer 6

They wouldn't be so daft as to come here.
One of Gordon Grabbit stealth taxes is landing fees for flying saucers, and they know they can't have a *** anywhere which is awkward for beings who live on smoke, not oxygen.
Chances are they would go to Spain etc as have every Brit I know who can afford to.
PS they have not gone for the weather.

Answer 7

Not in the UK, they'll be greeted with an offer of cash, a free home, free benefits, clothing allowance, food vouchers. Need I go on, you'll get the picture, read about it at sometime have you.

Answer 8

Are we talking little green men aliens this time?

I strongly suspect the army would become involved.

edit

Sorry, suddenly got a mind-image. USCIS says 'sorry sir/ma'am, your visa isn't in order' and little green man says 'oh, terribly sorry, and flies off....'

Answer 9

I'm going to assume that they are not considered to be human, so they will probably be killed, barbqued, and eaten (as though chickens in space suits had landed somewhere.)

Answer 10

Nope, they'd be offered free healthcare, government subsidies, and protected status as a minority group. So, no more " little green men " jokes.


;-(

Answer 11

The first wave would be admitted, then we would have to built an embassy on their planet so we could issue Visa to their citizens.
