No one will even consider the uncomfortable notion that some people - I would hazard to say, MOST people - are "a good person" and "a bad person" all at the same time. Even most of the worst people.
The idea of morality has become polarised in society and yet absolute in the individual... and it's not working at all. "He said a thing! He is bad man! End!". But when it comes right down to it... everyone has at least one thing that would end up with them being lumped into that same category by a good percentage of people  .
If someone is trying to be a little more considerate and thoughtful today than they were yesterday, I think that's all that really matters when it comes down to it.
