They kill people for money. Minus the Sith they are as dark side as you can get.
If they only worked for a good government, fine, they could probably be light side. But they work for anyone who will hire them including Sith Lords and gangsters like Jabba!
If bounty hunters in the real world sold their services to North Korea, Iran, and the Maffia, no one would think they were good guys.
Why isn’t cara a bounty hunter ? Only just finished the series and noticed she takes a job from farmers for money , says she would be arrested by the new republic so that rebel tag don’t make much sense . Finally she goes on a job with mando and heavily implies she’s joining the bounty hunters guild at the end.
She hasn’t got a great kit and BH need more tanks so I can’t see the harm , unless CG are planning on selling a season 2 bounty hunter Cara.

If your hired to assassinate someone, & you take the job, your committing Murder 4 Hire, and I'm not sure that would ever qualify as "Not-Evil".
If you look at the Light Side vs Dark side, its about the force, not good and evil, its Jedi vs Sith. The Jedi believe peace, knowledge harmony and serenity is best used in the force and the Sith believe in passion, strength and power in their code of the force. Neither is evil, you could argue that the Galactic Empire brought peace to the galaxy and united them and the Rebels were terrorists using guerrilla tactics attacking the government to implement their ancient ideology.

winners write the movies. terrorist rebel scum cost a lot of lives. Sure, Empire had to break a few eggs to bring peace and prosperity to the galaxy omelet, but that's just how it goes. Rebs destroyed that peace with murder and mayhem. They were like the jedi death squads enforcing the corrupt Galactic Republic's orders all over again smh

Did the empire not have civilians? I imagine not every person in an imperial facility would be military. But if it was a target the rebels wanted gone..... boom..... facility destroyed along with any non military personnel that are just following the laws of the current ruling regime.
Nuetral would make sense for bounty hunters, scoundrels, smugglers, tuskens, ewoks, droids, and jawas. As such nuetral should be able to be used on any dark side or light side missions if you choose.
Will probably boil down to a similar idea of Jango Fett. If leader is ‘x’ tag, automatically has payout. That’s how I foresee it working out for an exclusive LS comp.
Again, this is a game of patience. We need all pieces of the puzzle before we can draw conclusions.

Not in the case of droids. They are after all following the protocols of their creators and/or caretakers. A droid programmed to unfailingly act in the interest of a master considered evil, should thus also be considered evil, vice versa.

But the owner can overwrite and replace programming. So it simply follows it's current owners programming. Which could be seen as neutral. Ex. K2-SO, clearly an imperial issue droid aiding the rebels. Also the ig unit in the mandalorian being rewired for caretaking as opposed to assasination.

Didnt Cassian kill a civilian in rogue one because he was panicking? Literally told the guy "calm down everything will be ok." Then shot him in the back.

It wasn’t because he was panicking, it was because he was injured and couldn’t escape the Stormtroopers who were coming. So he actually did him a favor instead of letting him get tortured by the floating soccer ball of doom.

I can agree that one individual does not really count as terrorism per se. But Cassian did it so quickly with no show of hesitation. Which would imply he has no issues killing anyone. Hardly a bastion of "light". Light vs dark has always had plenty of grays in star wars. I just feel in regards to this topic Bounty Hunters for sure are gray as a whole, with individuals (like any other group) are more prone to lean toward evil or good based on their personal desires.
How many indigenous civilians died on planets where the rebels had space fights with the empire? The death star going kablooey and raining wreckage in a wide swath for example. In wars for power neither side is ever squeaky clean, ever. Regardless of how much political spin or justification either side tries to make.
It's always a topic that fascinates me. As Obi-wan said "Only Sith deal in absolutes." But jedi are ok with being enforcers instead of peacekeepers all throughout the clone wars.
