"with all do respect, this all makes alot of sense but heres my two cents.

i am convinced that all of the taking away of bending is staged that amon is lying because if he could take away bending he wouldn't have just told korra that he didn't want to fight on her terms but on his terms. no he would have taken away her bending and been done with it, dont you think. yes granted he is about equality and he wouldn't kill anyone, but he did say that he wouldn't stop until all of the benders bending were taken away. and of coarse tenzin's not inocent and korra is not inocent nor is bolin or mako, but wait, they are aren't they. well there goes that theory. darn and i was hoping i was wrong, yet no one has proven me wrong yet. as for tarrlok, i think he is, for write now, just more of a distraction and that he will eventually become the true enemy and that amon will not be an enemy for the entire series.

PS. i agree that Tarrlok is not Amon for the exact same reasons as you."

My respose to this:

At the tournament Amon said he'd only strike at benders that got in his way. He has not yet said that his goal was to remove EVERYONE'S bending, just to make the benders pay for their crimes against non-benders. By any means necessary. I do believe his goal is obtaining equality in any way he feels is necessary. Again, though, he has not truly harmed anyone who was not in some way crooked.

You mention Tenzin. Amon didn't really harm Tenzin. Just got him out of the way. The same for all of the benders at the tournament with the very POINTED exception of Tahno and the other Wolf Bats.

I addressed the removal of Tahno's bending. Never did I say it was fair. However, Amon was making a point of taking away the bending of those who abused their power, as Tahno and the other Wolf Bat's did. Apparently they were known for playing dirty. The example being that they abused their power over their more honorable opponents as benders have been abusing their powers over the non-benders, and so to Amon's thinking removing the Wolf Bats' bending was justice.
