I definitely think that Lucas is repressing history and that he should be opposed. The problem here is that no else here realizes that we as a whole are nothing more than a fringe group, thrown into the dustbin of history. Few people are willing to side with us because we are perceived as radicals, and most people consider it insanity to side with us. I don't like what GL is doing to SW as much as anyone on this site. But it is like fighting an atom bomb with a slingshot. We have more in common with Cuban exiles than with mainstream society.

 Dude, this is utterly ridiculous. Maybe people think you are a radical because of your use of comical hyperbole. I certainly do, and I run bloody savestarwars.com. But actually most people would like to see the originals and don't like that they've been suppressed. Most people actually are on the side represented by normal, reasonable and informed people like many of us here. That's why the site in question here has been designed in a very level-headed way to simply inform and educate further on the matter, rather than some radical, fanboy bitching and whining and freakish threats against a respected public figure.

In the end our voices will be silenced and no one will give a fuck. So if you are angry at what I am saying, deal with it. 

The fact is that you've silenced your own voice by laying down and accepting things. If everyone was like this, nothing would ever change and thats a bona fide fact that you have to deal with. I don't have to "deal with" your attitude because you are forecasting a future that doesn't yet exist, and is privy to change depending on the attitudes and efforts of public opinion to a degree.  On the contrary, I would say you have to "deal with" the people who are trying to change things. If you don't think things can change then fine, shut the fuck up, take your anti-depressants and be sure to thank people like us when the original versions of the films eventually do get properly released.
