You make a good point about the peaceful protestors and their methods and how they greatly differ from Amon. But if you take a look back in American History, what about the Black Panther Party? They didn't always use peaceful methods and they were just as an important part of revolution and change as MLK was. Plus, no one is going to sit here and argue that the Black Panther Party was evil and had evil intentions.

The Benders are the ones who governs and rule the city. Tarrlock represents the corruptness of government and to certain extent a tyrant who seeks powers (and don't forget that episode where he wants to lock up innocent citizens because they were non benders and out past a "curfew"). Of course not all benders have that view, and that is seen in Tenzin's charcter and the new Team Avatar. If a government or a leader is oppressing and targeting a certain group of people, peole are going to fight back. So in this case, it's the Equalists. So are you going to say that the Equalists are bad? Because there are many people who fight back around the world in situations like the one in LOK.

So who's evil and good? Who's right and wrong? There is no right answer to whether Amon is right or wrong and he can be seen as both good and evil from different perspectives and IMO that is what makes Amon's character so great and significant in LOK. That's just how i see it though and i repsect your opinion. sorry for the super long response. its just a great debate and topic of the show
