If it was aimed right at us, the advanced alien civilization would probably shrug their shoulders and not care, unless they knew we existed and cared about us.
A gamma ray burst from a dying star is like a gun (except it would shoot in 2 directions, forward and backward, instead of just forward). This hypothetical alien civilization would be standing off to the side seeing the gun pointed away from them, maybe not knowing or caring that we were in the crosshairs.
