If someone suggests that they think in morally gray manner, doesn't it signal to everyone around them that they're morally suspicious?

>"Do you think it's alright that police are getting killed?"

> "Well, let's think about the details, as the situation can be complex or even gray..."

You might say this is a stupid and sparse example, but well, let's think about it... for many people instinctual morality is their primary way of relating to the world. If you suggest you have an intellectual and distinctive approach to morality, what does that mean? Does that moral distinction mean moral superiority, arrogance, or moral alienation?
