No physical assistance.
Can they do it in time...?They have their standard issue weapons and ammo.
bullets versus lasers
lasers ftw, Riggs and Murtaugh die

Semi, and not the least bit spitey.
Cause spite implies nasty intentions.
RJ trying to call it that says more about HIM than the thread.
Hypocrisy, when one considers that he sets up loaded threads all the time, Indiana Jones and John McClane would be a one recent one.

No, blaster bolts are much faster than bullets, even in Clone War era.Hell, actual bullets in the SW verse(slugs) are easily blocked by Jedi or Sith.
WHAT!??? 😂
With respect sir, that can only be rubbish. No way can you trace a bullet moving over 20 feet of space at the same much more traceable velocity that a blaster moves at..
If lasers moved at lightspeed, you would see a momentary continuous beam between the muzzle and the target that most definitely would not move a bolt slowly from muzzle to target with a beginning and an end.
Blaster bolts are much slower than bullets.

There's no way to disprove it only using the movies, and it is backed up by Expanded Universe documents. No regular human being can beat a Jedi or Sith. /end
Hahaha, no, that's not how it works. If you make some wild claim not seen in the movies, YOU need to prove it.
EU nonsense doesn't fly here, so check it at the door.
Hasn't Boba Fett beaten Jedis and Sith?

What did Vader say, specifically?
"All powerful" doesn't translate into you making claims not supported by the film.
Jedi/Sith get hit, it happens. Their powers give them a great edge when facing none Force sensitives, but they're not untouchable.

"The ability to destroy a planet is insignifigant next to the power of the Force".This means that at the very least, Force users can planet bust.
Again, how does that specifically translate into your claim that the Jedi only got hit/killed because of some supposed Palpatine voodoo?
Hahhahahahaa, no. If Palpatine could have busted a planet via Forcery, why did he build the Deathstar (twice, no less) to destroy planets?
