How much is your silence worth?

Reasonable prices or not, if they make threats I would go into defensive mode and I will be less likely to cooperate. The more they push, the more I push back.

If they can keep it civil then I would be willing to at least discuss their offer until an agreement is reached, if any. If they so much as allude to a threat I would end all discussion at that point.

I like how lots say they'll show them the door, if they show up theyre not just going to walk away, they wont be unarmed, and they wont be alone.

And as long as they do not start no trouble there will be no trouble. We are well within our rights to show people where our property lines start and stop, regardless of who it is.

in this part of the world neighboring governments wont even enter the border areas here.. the locals send their 'representatives' back to them in bodybags they learned its much easier to stay out and let the people here be.
last foriegn invaders got sent packing as well.
we get left alone and life goes on as it always has and always will without outside interference.
In the last 100 years theyve thrown out the french, the americans, the vietnamese and the chinese. During border squables that pop up from time to time between china and vietnam neither will even risk sending troops through here and both have damn good armed forces.
the mib or whoever probably wouldnt get further than half a kilometre into the jungle before they got sent packing no roads out here travel is by foot through the jungle and no clear areas large enough for an lz/dz ... and its much further in than that to even get close to my doorstep ... my bet is the jungle would get them first.
if on the long shot they did make it am quite capable of handling the situation and sending them back home where they belong.
Westerners may be cowed by them .. People here arent frightened so easily and stick together.

Maybe, But when they come knocking on your door its not America vs whoever.
It's probably a few highly trained individuals against you.

I would give it to them, free, right after they made me president so I could abolish the federal govt, dismantle the empire, fire all the troops, expose all secrets.. and erase the office of president.. effectively making me un employed.

Notoriety would be leveraged to launch my career as an international porn star.
