1. Death penalty (or is that politics?)
2. Mentioning that Hitler and/or Stalin also did some good things.
3. Color of someone else's eyes (this is gold!).

I strongly suggest that you stop bringing that up in conversations. This is like praising someone for helping an old lady across the street before stabbing her to death. I'm sure it makes you feel all smart for having a controversial opinion and knowing some facts most people don't - but you're not. You have no idea how offensive this can be to people who've heard horror stories from their family or, God forbid, experienced it themselves. Best case scenario they will write it off as ignorance.

1. I didn't say I do this.
2. Amirite (@OP's question) or what?
