Firstly, i'll state my opinion: No
Uh, yeah, so i do not think Snape is evil. I liked him even before the last book when a reason for Snape being so short tempered and hateful with Harry. I liked him before because I was glad that there wasn't a teacher who was like, impressed with Harry. I also liked that there was a character that didn't treat harry like he was everything, and i personally think snape and the slythern's hate helped shape harry's ego, and kept it from getting to his head.
Anyone can bring up the point of him killing Dumbledore, So I am too. Everyone knows Severus only killed him because Dumbledore told him to, sort of, protect Draco's innocence and such. If things had been different, and it hadn't been Draco sent to kill Dumbledore, perhaps he wouldn't have? someone can correct me.
When the reason for snape being mean was finally given, that he had been in love with lily, It only made me sympathize with him more.
Thats all for now,

So we started with Severus, because there is a lot of controversy over if he's considered a bad character. I'll agree with Chaos, Severus shouldn't be counted as a bad character. I am a Severus fan, but that's not blocking my views. Some reasons why Severus can't be considered evil:
Yes, Severus put Harry through hell throughout the books, but we should all know Severus can't express his feelings well. That showed with his massive crush on Lily. While Severus did say rude things, he always looked out for Harry when needed, and in the end he was still loyal to Dumbledore
Severus only hated Harry because of James. I don't think Severus truly hated Harry, just the fact that Harry was the walking, talking being of James and Lily, and its a constant pain to Severus to see Harry, who looks exactly like his father. After all the things that James did to Severus during the school year its understandable that Severus disliked Harry, after all James got the girl and he didn't.
In the end, Severus was always loyal to Dumbledore, or more so Lily. In the seventh book Severus gave clues to help Harry, and Dumbledore was already dead (spoiler oops) and he still wanted to help Harry take down the Dark Lord.
so yeah, those are my viewpoints, feel free to disagree
