One of the expainations I see in fanfic trying to explain/mitigate Salazar's attitude is that while adult witches and wizards could easily escape burning attempts, if muggles caught an untrained child, that kid would possibly not know enough to get away.

I also think there's good grounds for supposing that he worried about someone trying to bring an army against Howarts, and was all for putting in as many defenses as possible, including a basilisk in the basement, just in case.

But canon does not really elaborate on it, leaving us thinking that the basilisk was left there for the exact purpose Tom Riddle used it for, both times - send it out to petrify/kill muggleborns. Unfortunately, despite high-minded ideas many fans have come up with to explain things, this is a systemic problem in the books, so while we may wish to think Slytherin =/= Evil, very little proves otherwise.

Oh, that's a good point about children. o.O Hadn't thought of that.

Yeah, Salazar was a bigoted ass. There's no denying that. I think he really did want the best educational institute possible, but couldn't abide the idea of non-purebloods being there. I don't think everyone sorted into that House automatically becomes evil, but I think Rowling did a very bad job or addressing that nuance.
