What Trek alien would you not want to meet in a dark alley?

I would not want to run into a Kelvan in a dark alley. Twice as tall as Klingons with hundreds of tentacles? I'd rather deal with the Borg, you can outrun them with a brisk walk.
 
Jem'Hadar, because you know that if they're in the same dark alley you're in, it's not a coincidence and you'll be dead soon.

Gorn because they'd enjoy a midnight snack.

Lethean, I don't want to die crazy without anyone knowing until I'm dead.

Klingons? Meh, as long as I don't insult their honor or their mother or any combination of the two, I'd be fine.
 
How about the violent anarchy guy that Picard and the others were imprisoned with in...that TNG episode where realPicard is locked in a room w/ 3 other people and fakePicard sings drinking songs and hits on Beverly?

He seemed pretty tough.

No mentions of the Pakleds yet?
 
The Xindi Reptillians and Insectoids were pretty psychotic.

(I like to see an Aquatic Xindi somehow stalk me down a dark alley!)

Nero's crew were quite a dangerous bunch - these guys survived the destruction of their planet, escaped a Klingon prison planet and imploded the Vulcan's planet. They're also way too badass for things like handrails.
 
The Letheans and the Nausicaans would only attack you if they had a reason to. Unlike many other races mentioned, they aren't prejudiced against humans. They both look intimidating and are aggressive, but they aren't dangerous if you are careful. A single Borg drone would be easy to outrun but meeting one would still be scary as hell.
 
Wesley Crusher, a teenager who was accepted, and at times, even nurtured by adults. That definitely makes him an "alien", in my understanding of this universe. ;)

And if it was in "a dark alley", there would, no doubt, be something going on that I would find very disturbing: a temporal breach that defies all previous understanding of quantum physics; a yucky space monster invasion portal opening up; or a nerdy, intergalactic teenage romance in progress!:eek: ... And then - he would probably end up saving the day (after experiencing the required amount of adorable, stereotypical, teenage angst) ... while I would probably only end up as, yet another dead Red Shirt, or something. :wtf:

No, thank you!!! :p :rofl:
 
Ferengi! Those guys probably are the best pickpockets in the galaxy
This.

You won't live long enough to regret an encounter with a really hostile alien, but a Ferengi could financially ruin you and make you suffer for a long time afterward...
