If these aliens are as advanced as what they are reported to be, the Alabama boys are as much consequence to them as the president or the Queen... When you walk by an ant hill, do you bend over and demand. “Take me to your leader” You are as far above the ant society as they are technically above us.
Sorry, won’t wash. The idea is they never appear to anyone who could actually verify their existence, which, if they were real, just by ACCIDENT they would land on the “anthill” of LA or San Antonio or something. They wouldn’t care if they burned a few “ants.”
