If the emotion harms you, is it still the best emotion? If the emotion prevents you from being effective in preventing the same crime from happening to someone else, will you cling to the emotion or let it go?

:::sigh::: I do see your point, Elizabeth. And I can say that I do my best to confine my hatred to the people who actually abused me. And I think I do pretty well at this, as evidenced by the fact that I did not feel hatred towards the nice young girl who frisked me in BUR. (As for her obnoxious supervisor, that's a different story!)

The problem is that there are just so MANY offenses happening, that it would appear that the TSOs who are NOT abusive are in the minority. And when you see that a majority of any group of people are abusing others, it's very difficult to not feel that emotion for the entire group!
