Hah. They park in any city and they'll get ticketed. Especially over here in and around Philadelphia; they even made a reality TV show about the Philadelphia Parking Authority.

I'd load up the shotgun, slap my .45 onto my belt, and mosey on outside to say hello. I'd be nice and friendly- no matter what they looked like. But if I sensed hostility, Mr. Remington would start barking.

I don't think you could tell whether aliens were "good" or "bad" based simply on what they looked like. Something that looked like E.T. could be unspeakably malignant, while something that looked like the creature from Alien could possibly be friendly and helpful. We would know nothing about their culture or intentions. An alien, by definition, is outside our realm of experience, and would be impossible to judge by appearance.

shoot on sight ask questions later

I think you guys are on to something here.
Maybe the reason why aliens haven't landed yet is because they are an extremely civilized society and haven't yet figured out where it would be proper to park their crafts. You have to admit that getting a parking ticket it is a very poor way to start intergalactic communication.

Perhaps the best way to achieve disclosure is to build alien only parking lots.
