yes, i believe that good people can do bad things. thats just like saying that Obama is a bad person because he may have lied before in his life or drank or smoke

yes, because if they are doing a bad thing by taking the blame for something they did not do. The right thing and the good thing would be to let the friend or whoever it is take the responsibility for what they have done. Not put yourself in the position to be made out to seem like a bad person cause now thats what people are going to think of you as and thats how they will see you. as a BAD person.

You're stupid David. Your ignorance blinds you. Good people do bad things, but that doesn't make them bad.

Yes ofcourse, good people can do bad things, especially those who are on the other side of the fence or international border. And the more bad things he does against what he/ she considers bad people, the more good he is in the eyes of his own people. Also, in certain times in the past, you were considered good if you hunted out and exterminated wild animals .. and now it is considered cruel and wicked and bad !

If you can waste your time arguing about stupid things then I can do the same to tell you that you're being stupid. :)

The only thing dividing a "good" and "bad" person is their motivation for doing things.

The question itself is stupid. First of all, you can't just separate people into "Good" and "Bad". That's like separating fruits into "tastes good" and "tastes bad". It all depends on who's the one eating the fruit, or talking to the person.

Even if there was "good" and "bad" people, both could do good or bad things. The better (but still dumb) question would be, "If a person does a bad thing, does that make him bad?" You're both arguing over nothing. Go solve world hunger or something.

But if a good person is accused of doing a bad thing but they just took the blame for someone else would you still consider them bad if their convicted

It all depends on the person that takes the blame. Is he looking at how the world will view him or if he is looking at the fact he might lose his friend if he tries to get his friend to do the right thing and turn himself in
