Who is not allowing people to be angry?

I think the important thing is how that anger is directed. Anger misdirected towards those whose opinions differ from our own, who are innocent people trying to deal with yesterday's horrors and the future's uncertainties - as we all are - is simply fueling the fire. Anger toward who and what we think is responsible for the tragedy is another matter altogether. Sure, there are many opinions regarding said responsibility, but we shouldn't hate each other for having different opinions. Anger is felt, it should be expressed, along with sadness, gentleness, compassion, and forgiveness toward each other.

That is a very good point. I've seen people trying to feign (sp?) disgust with the reactions of others and its really shallow to tell someone its wrong to be angry over this. Anyone who is not angry and vengeful right now perhaps could feel like they rise above us but they also purposely read our reactions and then blame us for having made them read it. Which is stupid.

Maybe I'm one target of that journal entry. *shrugs*

I feel that all the anger has drained out of me. I can't help but see this as a good thing.
