I do not think, that many "star wars fans" understand, that this guy is a drug dealer.
@BlinkRape
And what do you think, that "goods" were?
Dude was a cargo pilot. You pay he flies. I don't recall any mention of him only dealing in specific substances
@BlinkRape
> You pay he flies.
Exactly... And Jaba did pay a lot.
I don't buy my drugs from the coyote running the border, I don't buy my gas from the tanker truck driver and I don't buy my consumer goods from the big box store truck driver.
These people are middle-men at most.
@BlinkRape
Yes.
And that is something most fans don't realize.
>most fan's do not understand he is a drug dealer
No, he isn't, here's why
>correct, and they don't understand that he isn't one
that is literally what you just did.
@BlinkRape
Because I don't care about the "selling" part, but about the fact, that he's a part of the drug distribution process.
I agree, that I used a wrong word. As @heavens_feel said, a drug mule is more accurate, but he's part of the drug distribution process. And that is what I wanted to point to.
Ok but most Star Wars fans (who outnumber fake woke ass niggers) have known Han was a smuggler, and a morally grey, shady individual from day one.
That is why they like him and like his redemption arc.
It's Lucas and the studios that have been trying to retcon his image since the special edition. Actual Star Wars fans are under no illusions about what kind of person he is
smuggling just needs to be profitable to be worthwhile, any kind of export restriction can induce a black market. There's a lot of tobacco smuggling because of US export restrictions on Japanese and Cuban tobacco. There's computer smuggling to Iran (they had a shit ton of clustered ps3s at one time). I think goats and goat meat is often smuggled into the USA from Mexico
@s8n @BlinkRape
True, but I didn't want to include slave trade just for the "benefit of doubt".
@s8n @BlinkRape
> arbitrary unknown goods
Thanks for agreeing then.
@s8n @BlinkRape
Again.... YES!!!
@s8n @BlinkRape
Wow, what a moral dude.
Truckers get paid to transport food all the time but I don't call them grocers
