I'm split on this. On one hand, the general idea of using evil to defeat an injustice seems a little illogical, but you have to ask yourself what Sallust was refering to when he alluded to evil. More than likely it has something to do with some sort of sacrilege, and could very well not extend past the bounds of religious morals, which in my opinion can be pretty damn skewed at times.
So, on the other hand, maybe the achievement of justice through "evil" means isn't so bad after all.
