"Keep away!! We are not ready for first contact. If you come here, our leaders will probably try to kill you. This planet is a mess and in all honesty the Human Race should be wiped from the galaxy and this planet turned into a garden planet. The universe would benefit greatly from our extinction.

Seriously. our leaders are so paranoid about perceived threats on Earth already that you'd just make the situation worse and war could be the only result.

Try Alpha Centauri."
