Kalessin, eesh, you keep beating me to the punch [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. All I'll say is that hobbits being related to Men were probably as capable of evil as anyone, they just were living on a scale (and on a level of comfort) which made tendencies that in a Gondor man might have led to betrayal and the fall of a city instead work themselves out in stealing silver spoons and spreading unpleasant stories about the odd Mr. Baggins (How DO you think he got his money anyway, eh? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]). Their evil, like their good, is acted out on a much smaller scale.
