Agreed. If all evils are equal, then he should be rallying for the hangman's death of every jay-walker, traffic speeder or panhandler. By his argument, almost everybody in the world could die, and he'd be a-okay. I believe he is overstating his opinion. Further, Hitler DID do a lot of good things in his lifetime, they are just typically outweighed by the massive amounts of evil he did later. If he's unable to see that even bad people can do good things, good people can do bad things, and that most people are just 'somewhere' in the middle (hopefully) trying to do more good things than bad, then I believe it is he who doesn't understand the notion of 'shades of gray'.
