Such cynicism Frank, and not particulary enlightened in terms of science.
First of all how does the human race pose a threat to the "rest of the galaxy?"
We can't at all be sure there is life anywhere else in the Universe let alone our galaxy, and so what's the threat? That we'll go around destroying hunks of rock or globes of gas?
And let's say life abounds in our galaxy, do you have any idea of the physical obstacles to our coming "face to face" with it?
And if and when we do, the chances are pretty good that that old bogeyman Ted Cruz and his "tea-bagging" minions will have been long gone. Barack Obama XXII will probably be ruling the world and little green aliens certainly have nothing to fear from such an enlightened human.
Maybe they're too small for me to tell, but I don't think viruses have built anything like the Taj Mahal, wrote music like Beethoven's 9th, or even made magnificent cave drawings of aurochs and cave lions.
Don't despair Frank, the way things are going, America won't be an evil influence on mankind for much longer.
