The whole point of the discussion was “why would Leia lie through her teeth if the soldiers were wearing Rebel uniforms” to which the point I was making (which sorry if you weren’t paying any attention) was that there were a million reasons why she was obviously lying through her teeth besides the soldiers wearing rebel uniforms. So I really don’t know what the fuck you are talking about.
The topic is “Who were the guys in the gray and black vests with the fireman helemts??” not “why would Leia lie through her teeth if the soldiers were wearing Rebel uniforms”. I have not been talking about Leia at all, so not sure why you still continue to reply about that. Maybe some quotes will help you to understand.
There’s no reason an Imperial consular ship housing an Imperial senator would have its troops start shooting at boarding Imperials unless they were willing to out themselves as rebels. I doubt the stormtroopers would have started shooting everyone if they were greeted by a welcome party.
If you don’t remember, the movie starts with Star Destroyer chasing and shooting Tantive IV and then captures it, so I’m sure anyone who is inside isn’t waiting for a welcome party at the door, were they rebels or not.
Hey, if you think that the stormtroopers should be greeted and then they wouldn’t have started shooting after they exploded their door, then okay…
It is like trying to run away from cost guard when they try to inspect your boat.
You would too if you knew that they would kill you if they caught you. Lets not forget that the Empire knows that the plans are on board. There’s no way the crew would get away peacefully even if they handed the plans to Vader’s own hands.
And then your post:
No shit again but you’re clearing missing the point, which is that Leia was lying through her teeth.
WTF, none of these posts were about that.
Like I said, shooting stormtroopers doesn’t make you part of the Rebel Alliance, that’s called self defense considering everything happening in the film. But, like I said, to me they seem and are rebels. But since you’re so adamant about Leia’s words then fine, I’ll respond to that. Your argument is invalid since the plans were on board so there would be no situation that they would be chased AND Leia wasn’t lying about their mission. The Empire came for the plans and Leia lied or the Empire wouldn’t have come at all. And because they had the plans, they disabled Tantive IV and blew their door open, it wouldn’t matter what clothes they were wearing, rebel uniforms or not. But honestly, I don’t even think the Empire knows what kind of uniforms the rebels have at that point. The rebels don’t have their logo in anything but their pilot helmets, I’d say they just wear standard clothing because you never know when you run into Imperials. But who knows…
