Are they gonna reverse the "Greedo shot first" BS?

I've actually heard the argument made that he shot first, but his gun jammed and it was corrected.

The scene (and the character, Han Solo) doesn't make sense if Greedo shot first.
As soon as he sat down, Han intended on killing him. The "I'll bet you have" was the emphasis on this. No one calmly says this while returning fire.
Now, I don't think Solo is a sociopath - when he saw Greedo, it is pretty clear ("I'm probably going to have to kill this fool"), but he gave him a chance to walk away. When he wanted the Falcon as a bribe to go away, Han's next action was going to be to shoot him. After the "over my dead body" exchange, Han shoots him as Greedo doesn't even realize Han has already drawn on him.

I will punch George in the throat...then I'll tell the judge that George punched first!

I never realized there was even a question.
When I saw the movie as a kid and when I watch the DVD with my kid it's clear as day that Han shot him without Greedo ever knowing what happened.
When was it retconned that Greedo shot first?
This is really the first I've ever heard of this

I already did. All I did was pretend the special editions don't exist. IDGAF what is "canon."
