I really do understand what you're saying, and the parallels are there. But I guess I'm just uncomfortable drawing a comparison between tampering with some movies and genocide. Like the phrase "George Lucas raped my childhood," it simultaneously trivializes a truly horrific offense of monolithic proportions and elevates the importance of movies to that of human life, a notion that I hope everyone here would reject out of hand.
But, although I may not be too fond of the hyperbolic language, make no mistake that I am just at outraged as you are at his systematic eradication of an important piece of America's cultural identity...
