If space explorers finally discovered alien life on other planets, would you be comfortable having them imported to earth and living amongst them?

Re: If aliens existed…
Depends on their culture and beliefs. If they were like Muslim or Christian fanatics who want to push their beliefs on us by force then no - we got enuf of those fuckheads on this planet.
If they followed the Prime Directive, then yeah come join the party.
The whole extraterrestrial alien is just a metaphor for what we already experience on this planet with "aliens" of another language, nation, culture or race and how we deal with it.
Now are we talking humanoid aliens, who look like us and are at least similar in biology, or are we talking a whole different species of plant/animal/whatever?
Will they be able to naturalize and become citizens?
Will we need to provide special accommodations?

Re: If aliens existed…
Yeah, there's a lot of stuff we would have to know, what are they like? What are their plans? What is their opinion about us? What would their reaction be to coming here? Do they plan to kill and enslave us and take the world over for themselves? Etc., there are a lot of potential questions that would have to be answered first, what is their ulterior motive?

Re: If aliens existed…
I don't think importing them here would be a good option. They can just visit.

Re: If aliens existed…
I'm inclined to say "probably not". Because I doubt that alien life forms have similar physiological and elemental makeup to ours. Hell, earthlings have had trouble co-exisitng since Man began!
On the other hand, there are days when I leave the office thinking that I've dealt with the worst of space cadets.
