I mark myself a Slytherin. Yepp, I said it and I feel no shame.
After all, we can't say that all of them are bad. (Regulas Black, and Severus Snape being notable examples.) as well as Narcissa Malfoy and Horace Slughorn (the fun, jolly fellow he is)(As noted in comments)
Its just a house with a bad rap, because of a few bad people.
Saying all Slytherins are evil would be like saying Germany is an evil, and horrible country JUST because Adolf Hitler originated there.
My personal opinion is that, yes some Slytherins went as bad as you could go, but others just got wrapped up in the "misconceptions."
Many Slytherins are not evil, they are strong willed, independent, ambitious, and cunning people who desire to be the best.
And on a further note, lets look at a few less then 'chivilrous' Gryffindors.
Peter Pettigrew- Enough said I do believe.
James Potter, however brave and loyal, was an arrogant bully.
Did the king Gryffindor himself, Albus Dumbledore not dabble (however temporarily) in the Dark Arts himself?
So what say you Gryffindors, who have turned blind eyes to your fellows, who are less then Gryffindor-esque
Dumbledore said, "Its our choices that make us who we are"
So weather a person is evil or not, isnt based on the house they were put in, its based off of they choices thay make within that house.
Do they choose to conform to the hipe, and be evil, muggle hating freaks, or do they choose to be good, and attempt to break the reputation?
SLYTHERINS AREN'T EVIL
Just leave us alone people.

It was a crisp autumn eve on the Hogwarts express. Albus, James and Rosie where eating cauldron cakes and goofing off, when suddenly an owl soared by and tapped furiously on the glass. Albus opened the window and the owl burst in and stuck out its leg at Albus. Albus unstrapped the note attached to its leg. The owl stared into Albus' eyes and glared.
Then without another backwards glance it took off. "What does it say?" said Rosie who looked terrified. Albus read aloud "potter, if you ever want to see your parents again you will meet me outside the shrieking shack at midnight on Halloween." "Its signed lord Voldemort" said James.
"This doesn't add up" said Rosie. " well we will have to discuss this later because now’s the sorting." Albus said. “cross your fingers that we all get in the same house." said James. "We will!" they all said in unison.

"For nearly two months, we've all been doing prosthetic tests and all sorts of preparation for the epilogue," Felton said. "I've been having some aging training. You've got to walk differently. There's a slump in your walk."
Felton notes they have someone who comes in to teach them how to be old and that they were told to imagine they had weights on their arms.
"We're probably at the most exciting bit," he said. "Certainly the part I've been most looking forward to. It's going to be very exciting."
