    Han Solo is supposed to be a scoundrel, he's a damn smuggler. The bar they meet him in is described as "a wretched hive of scum and villainy".

    George Lucas has an incredible talent for fucking up the intent of the author in a story that HE'S THE AUTHOR OF, it would be very funny if it weren't so annoying.

    TBF, Han was a smuggler around the time of ANH, but he got there by running drugs for Jabba's auntie for years... Han Solo was a plug first, and don't even get me started on the Chewie/Scooby thread.

    Greedo was pointing a gun at him and talking about claiming his bounty. How exactly was he going to go about that without shooting Han?

    So yes, Han shot first, as in, shot before Greedo could, which he was certainly intending to do.
