UFOs, guns and rural America.

So I was at my computer watching some. "shocking and amazing", videos, I should say that they were described as shocking and amazing but in all reality they were boring and repetitive. There was one interesting video though, it was a UFO slowly flying above the tree line, slightly out of focus as usual. What was so interesting about this video? I know it sounds like every UFO video you have seen in your life. The interesting thing about this one was that you could see that one of the guys who was watching the object had a hunting rifle over his shoulder. That got me to thinking, most UFO sightings happen in rural America. Rural America is absolutely saturated with projectile weaponry. I can not think of a farm I have ever seen that was not kitted out in rifles, shotguns and hand guns in both high and low calibers. I knew a farmer that owned a .50 caliber rifle and had armor piercing rounds, when asked why, he would respond,"just in case.". I always though, "in case of what, an armor plated bear is trying to steal your tractor from a mile and a half away?" That all being said, my question is. Why has no one ever shot down one of these UFOs? They are always hanging around, flying above tree lines, creeping out the hunters but what do the hunters do, shoot at them? No, they pull out a camera and try to capture them on tape or film. Every time you see an interview with a UFO spotter they will say that at one time it was right above their heads,"counta ben mor'n fifty feet oer ma' head". I know these people are thinking that a picture will be worth some "vittle" money but I guess they don't realize how much the actual husk of the UFO would be worth, even though it may be bullet riddled and slightly on fire. Farmers and hunters really can't use a camera well but boy those guys can shoot. All they would have to do is damage the ships propulsion drive, once that is broken and the ship can't escape quickly, bringing it down should be academic. I should note that once it's down, you will want to cover the exits and probably shoot anything that exits the ship. You don't need an alien running amok in the woods around your farm, taking his anger over his downed craft out on your family and livestock, smashing your barn door and turning your cattle all kinds of inside out. Plus, an alien body is even bigger moolah, maybe a guest shot on Letterman or Springer to boot. I am just tired of blurry video and stories about abduction, you have weaponry, use it. Come on America, fire your guns wildly in the air anytime a shadow is cast above your head. Sure you might accidentally kill a wild bird or a hang glider but you may be saving our planet from a scout craft that could be the harbinger of an interstellar assault on our resource rich planet. Now put down those cameras and pick up some guns.
