I was just kidding. I wouldn't shoot a rapist if there was a better way.

Agreed. The thing is though that you and I are fairly limited in what we could do, which depending on the level of severity of the act would make us unwilling observers. It's not that we're neutral, rather that we're relatively powerless. That would make us more a hostile audience than actually evil.

If we did have such power but chose not to wield it to prevent an evil act, we would then deserve the label of evil, even if only by accessory.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
