“The anger that you see expressed out there in Los Angeles, in my district this evening, is a righteous anger, and it's difficult for me to say to the people, "Don't be angry." When people are angry and enraged, they do do senseless things. They do act even sometimes out of character, and that's why it is the responsibility of America to try and avoid putting people in these kinds of situations.” PeopleTryingKindSometimesCharacterAmericaDifficultResponsibilitySituationAngryEveningLos AngelesRighteousRighteous Anger Author:Maxine Waters
