In my opinion, this is the best theory behind the true identity of Amon I have read so far. It makes since, it is interesting, and provides a transition into the second season. I think it is very probable this is how things MIGHT turn out at the end of the first season, and if that is the case then this is my THEORY.

Tarlock uses the equalist movement as an excuse in order to initiate a vote to grant an official with emergency executive powers to put an end to the conflict as soon as possible. Which i would predict he would possibly have to cheat to win. After gaining his position of power I would suspect him to form a secret police force to get rid of his current and future political opponents in order to secure his power, and on that note I add; what if the equalist movement is actually his unwitting secret police? They are fiercley loyal to Amon who COULD BE fiercley loyal to Tarlock. In that since the equalist would be taking orders straight from Tarlock and wouldnt even know it. Through the use of propaganda and his secret police, Tarlock could then turn public opinion of the avatar around and eventually force Korra to leave Republic City until she has mastered the Avatar State by unblocking her Chakra's. Season one would end with a showdown between Korra, Tenzin, and Lin V.S Tarlock and Amon. Lin dies during the battle and Tenzin has his air bending taken away and before Amon can take Korra's bending away she activates Avatar mode, possibly for the first time, and is able to temporarily subdue Tarlock and Amon in order to rescue Tenzin and flee. Then eventually, in season 2, Amon betrays Tarlock OR vice-versa. Of course, this is nothing but speculation.

As a personal THEORY towards the true identity of Amon, what if Asumi has an unknown twin brother? Or maybe Amon is just AMON. SPECULATION IS FUN.
