Statistically red shirts are less likely to die than blue or yellow shirts, as there are significantly more red shirts on board a ship which means a lower percentage of red shirts die, so this joke is illogical.
On top of that, the whole "stormtroopers can't aim" bit is based on a room temperature IQ interpretation of the rebels' escape from the Death Star. People don't seem to remember that scene where Leia points out that they let them escape so that could track them.
Yes in new hope that holds up....but what about on endor in Return of Jedi
on second thought, let's not go to endor. 'tis a silly place.
