That's debatable. Skynet was a defense grid. It wasn't necessarily tasked to destroy "evil" people--just enemies of the USA. It became sentient and made a conscious decision to exterminate mankind. Not because all men have some taint of evil (huh huh, taint), but because humans could pose a potential threat to its existence.
Did you ever read any of the Robocop vs Terminator comics? They do some crazy stuff with the timeline, and it was written by Frank Miller. Awesome stuff.
