"This is My House, I have to defend it"!

I’d go “Home Alone” on them. Paint Cans and Pipes as projectile weapons. Fire & Ice. Nails & blunt objects. There would be pain at every turn.

Protect my block.

I would get all the people together and get the knives 2 by 4s and any lethal thing to fight. That easy hopefully no one dies but we need to kill them quick and fast. Use the basements inside to protect the elders and children. Maybe get some gang bangers to shoot the aliens and keep ourselves safe.

I don’t think I could.
I would be the person that hides and tell how the whole thing went down.

I'd hire..

Michael Bolton and Kenny G to perform over loudspeakers - after securing ear muffs for the community of course.

Attack the Block

I would confuse the aliens with passive resistance.

Attack the Block

My protection would entail gathering a good team, that’s not afraid to take chances. Set up a supplied safe haven and devise good counter attackes with back up plans.
