What types of things can another person do to really make you angry? :mad:
...like to the point you might feel hostile and possibly violent?

What makes you want to punch someone in the face? :fighting:

...Or is this type of anger and hostility not a factor for you? You'll never be that angry.
 
Life's too short to waste it on such petulance. I'm human, so I'd be lying if I said nothing bothers me. There are only two people who I refuse to tolerate: bullies or bigots. I don't believe in violence, but I don't react to them kindly.

Great answer. I feel the same way.
 
I wouldn't say I get to the point where I want to actually 'kill' people. Only time I'd get that way would be if someone hurts my family.

Animal or child abuse. Nothing gets me more upset.. how could anyone do that to an innocent animal or child?!

People who make fun of physically or mentally handicapped people piss me off.

Guys with their pants hanging below their asses. I suppose I could actually punch them in the face and get away with it, because when I ran away and they chased me, this would happen:

I agree with Jazzy about child and animal abuse. I HATE people who abuse their children or pets. I actually just rescued a Chihuahua from an abusive family.
 
I don't like a lot of things people do but hate is something I would do to them. While not all hate leads to murder but all murder is born from hate. Why would I want to do something that leads some to murder? It doesn't mean I condone the action they took but their actions no matter how wrong do not make an equally wrong action right.

The thing about hating someone is it doesn't lead to satisfaction. No matter how much you hate someone, it won't ever be enough as you will always want more as not even killing the person will be enough. If you want to be at peace in this life then it's best to forgive which doesn't mean they get off the hook but you don't let their actions dictate your emotional state or have power over how you feel. As after all, why let someone who does so little for you have so much power over your emotional state?
 
I never really want to KILL people. But they are times when I just want chew their heads off. (Hahah) but at that point you have to hurt my friends or family, or hurt other people.
