Yes I AM Angry...as We the People ARE angry...
The biggest fear the left has of "we the people" is how we will ACT when we are FED UP.

Fear most always precedes ACTION when the action needed is UNCOMFORTABLE.

Parents punishing a child from staying out too late at night....rarely illustrates a parent BEING happy with the behavior of their child.

| Tough Love is TRUE Love...see Responsibility |
You will NEVER hear..."I'm so happy with you I'm going to spank you, restrict you, or worse...
The STRATEGY of the Left is to make embarrassing someones anger.
Oh I hear your passion. How condescending is THAT?....Oh really I respond...you hear my passion but you disregard the FACTS they I outlined....I got it..
So,....I say....GET ANGRY....don't be a passive aggressive. Don't be risk adverse,
 |
| tell em...Yes, I'm ANGRY...and your point IS? |
Don't be concerned of using an abundance of Caution. There are NO guarantees in life....allow your anger, celebrate your anger.....YOU paid dearly to BE angry....It's NATURAL of the human condition...less you become a re-Conditioned Human.
Anger gets a bad rap. Sure, when there's too much
of it or when it's improperly applied it can cause damage, but you
could say that for nearly any other emotion. Learn how anger can make
you smarter, more competent, and more realistic.
Anger is a Great Substitute for Fear or Despair
As nasty as anger is, it's a picnic when compared with terror,
depression, or despair. That sounds like damning with faint praise, but
it's not. No one's ever going to have a life so smooth and
sunlit that nothing bad ever happens to them. Unless we are able to
achieve serenity to the point of complete detachment, when bad things
happen to us we feel negative emotions. Anger can be the best option.
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University got 92 volunteers and
subjected them to a mildly unpleasant experiment. The volunteers were
asked to count backwards from 6233 by thirteens. As the volunteers
counted 6220, then 6207, then 6194, the researchers impatiently told
them to speed it up. When the subjects screwed up, they had to do it
all over again. To add to the unpleasantness, they were on camera. As
the volunteers went through the experiment, researchers analyzed their
facial expressions, noting which volunteers expressed fear or
embarrassment. After the test, the volunteers had their mouths swabbed,
their blood pressure taken, and their heart rate recorded. Those who
expressed anger at the situation had lower blood pressure and less
stress hormones in their saliva than those who expressed fear. Anger
isn't great for the body, but it doesn't do the damage that fear does.
The angry subjects also were a bit more realistic about their chances
of being hurt by a terrorist in the next year. Granted, that was only a
bit. The anger group estimated a 19 percent chance, while the fear
group estimated a 23 percent chance. Still, anger allowed people to get
closer to the truth, which as we know with hindsight was pretty much a
zero percent chance. Angry people had a more realistic outlook on life
than scared ones.
Anger Gets You Ready for an (Intellectual) Fight
In the case of the terrorism survey, it's probably true that people
not primed for any kind of emotional excess might have been even better
at realistically estimating their chances of being attacked. In that
case, anger was a smarter response than fear but it wasn't a smart
response in and of itself. Anger makes a better showing in other
situations.
Ever notice that you're instantly able to spot the flaws in all the
political arguments you don't agree with? Of course we all like to
pretend that it's because anyone who disagrees with us does so because
they're irrational, while our reasoning is watertight, but the truth is,
we look at arguments that anger us just a little bit more critically.
One study suggests that it's the anger, and not just the political
motivation, that helps people spot flaws.
The researchers in charge of the study recruited student volunteers,
and asked half of them to recall vividly a memory that still got them
mad. (Just in case that wasn't enough, the researchers recruited a
whole other group of volunteers and asked them to state their hopes and
dreams. Half the time, another member of the group - actually an
undercover researcher - criticized the subject's plans in order to make
them furious.) After being wound up, the subjects were shown one of two
papers that argued for the importance of post-graduation financial
prudence. The papers either contained strong arguments supported by
solid sources, or weak and unsupported arguments. When asked to
critique the logic of the papers, the angry students were much more able
to distinguish between weak and strong arguments. What's more, they
were more likely to find themselves convinced by the strong arguments.
As much as we think anger makes us unreasonable, a little spark of anger
can give us the ability to think critically and the willpower to come
into line with good arguments.
Anger Can Be Good For Your People Skills and Your Society
So anger doesn't always make you a mindless rageball unable to make a
point or go through life. It does isolate you, right? There are no
relationships that improve with the introduction of simmering anger.
This is true. But there's also not a need to let anger simmer, or even a
need to express it. In one study, when people were asked to note when
they felt anger, and think about what they could do about it, they often
found ways to stop being angry. If your spouse has a bad habit of
slamming the front door, is it worth stewing about their lack of
consideration for five years when forty bucks and a couple of hours can
get you one of those slow-compressing hinges? If you hate hearing loud
cell phone conversations on the bus, pick up an old ipod and load it up
with music and audio books. Thinking of anger as a signal that a
problem needs to be solved, instead of as a battle, can improve a lot of
your relationships.
Not all relationships need to be improved. Some just need to come to
an agreement. Studies on mediation found that, although most disputes
are hindered by expressions of anger, when one side finds themselves
particularly "vulnerable" a little anger expressed by the other side
does no harm to the process. Granted, expressing anger at the
vulnerable doesn't sound like a positive thing, but consider that in
mediation, being "vulnerable" often equates to being in the wrong.
Being wrong about certain things deserves anger.
And anger affects more than just the person expressing it and
the person receiving it. It also affects the people watching it be
expressed. Anger isn't just personal, it's social - at least according
to sociologists. By being visibly angry, we establish social norms, and
we establish that social norms need to change. We throw our lot in
with a certain group of people, even if our "lot" is just our visible
annoyance. Anger isn't just a way of tearing something down. It's a
way of showing support for what's right.
Everyone knows there are times when anger spurs people to do terrible
things, but it's not just a destructive emotion. It can be smart,
restorative, and moral. We just have to use it right.
