I think that it is, perhaps, because you realize that it is what you wish that your position actually was. <div><br></div><div>If you’re fearful of them because uncontrolled mobs are scary (and they are) then quit hiding behind a fake case of anger and get in touch with what you’re actually feeling: fear.</div><div><br></div><div>If anger is the correct response, what do you have to show for it? What has anger actually prompted you to do which will correct this situation?
