This is probably been talked about allot, But they hide Luke on Tatooine, the planet Darth Vader was from, with his only surviving Family ( his Step brother)?? WTH (What the Hutt!!)

Ok, here are my choices A. the Jedi are really really bad at planning, I mean the lamp shade on the head as camouflage challenged. Or B. the Empire can't breath without someone reminding them to ("Breath my lord").

Fast forward to Episode 4.

"Hey look, Princess Leia is trying to fly to Tatooine..." says the Dark Lord "Huh! Fancy that, I was raised there ya know...won a Pod race and all...oh the memories" ( A report comes in) "WOW!!! This is a small Galaxy! Apparently those escaped droids were sold to my Brother and law...hahahahahaha...My Spleen!!!...hahahahahaha...Oh my that is funny, send him and his wife my love...then shoot them with one of those "Burn you up" rays please". A storm trooper approaches and hads him yet another report " A old man, a boy and two droids talked their way through a road block...then blasted their way out Mos-eisley with the help of a Pirate and his mate...look at this artist rendering of the old man...Wow, this guy looks allot like somebody I used to know, and look at this kid...why if my kid had lived he would have been this age...oh well...back to Evil stuff".

When he realizes look is his Son, do you think he spends 4 hours repeatedly beating his head into hatch "OMG!! They hid my son...with my only remaining family...on the planet I was born on!!!" Pang! Pang! Pang! Pang! Pang! "They didn't even change his last name!!!!"
