Even as a nutjob, Arthur still had a valid point.... Emma, as the Dark One, was far too dangerous. He was correct in treating her, as any other Dark One. Yeah, he did. He had no idea who she was but if Snow and the gang didn't know Emma, they would enthrall her and potentially kill her without batting an eye.

Sorry, but he never cared about Emma being the dark one, he never cared about protecting his kingdome. He only wanted the dagger to complete his sword for reasons. Instead of making him grey, and by doing that, making our "heroes" grey, they decided to turn him black and portraying him as a lunatic who only looks for glory and hurting people, including raping his wife, along the way.
